A Message about In-home Respite from Good Shepherd

Center!

Good Shepherd Center In-Home Respite Program

Through this program Good Shepherd Center provides

short-term, intermittent care for persons with a diagnosis of Autism, Cerebral

Palsy, Epilepsy or Developmental delayed in their natural, guardian or foster

family home. Our staff is sent into the family home to provide care for the

individual with special needs, as well as any siblings under the age of 18. This

allows the primary caregivers the opportunity to attend community events with

the comforting knowledge that their children are being well cared for in their

absence.

In addition to providing Respite Care for families, this

department also assists families in accessing other available services for their

child by providing referral services and to assure that the families’ needs

are best met. This department also provides CPR/First Aid training for families

at no charge. This program is provided at no cost to the families living in

southwest suburban Cook County, northern Will County and the Beverly Mt.

Greenwood areas of Chicago. For further information call the In-Home Respite

Care Family Manager at 708-335-0020, extension 22.
