Redservices’ mission is to help Caregivers to avoid COMPASSION FATIGUE or BURNOUT,
teach them to set limits and know when not help but get help themselves and focus on self-care for the benefit of both caregivers and the individuals that they care for.

Redservices’ vision consists to create an emotional, psychological and physical caring

environment for individuals with disabilities to help caregivers to have free time that they may use to release the stress that can be caused by 24/7 around the clock caregiving.

"Breathe. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
Don't try to be a hero if your health or stress is at risk.
Finally, don't try and do it alone."

-Janice B.

Safe and empowering environment

“Don’t pass me by”. From the experience we noticed how people with disability can be easily ignored while in their home, their support workers passing them by as LeQuyere pointed it out.

Our team at REDS wants to assure that individual under our care will be supported physically, emotionally and spiritually. Nobody will ever pass them by, they will be noticed, known and we will miss them once they are not around. We will make sure that they participate in the events happening in the community because we want them to belong and experience a total inclusion in the community. we offer a healthy, loving and caring environment where individual will continue to learn skills, make new friends. We believe that each person in life have something to contribute in their society. We will support the individuals left in our care in leisure, recreational activities in their daily living and other community inclusion activities while teaching them how to acquire independence as much as possible.

Personal centered planning program

At REDS we assist or help individual under our care, we don’t fix them. We believe in strength-based approach.

We are able to focus on what individuals under our care can do not what they can not. We will take time to discuss with the individual and her/his team to make plans that suit her/his needs. The care in our program is totally customized, we don’t accept that one size can fit all. We value diversity as well because we believe that as individuals’ relationship is growing in number and diversity, as is big space in their life to draw new possibility and capacity in others.

Christian counseling and shoulder to lean on

When REDS was created, we had intention to make difference in people’s lives that we are caring for. We really care about how they are doing.

To make sure that you, Caregiver are applying self-care, we will encourage you to get out, so, dress to impress and have a dinner out on the house when your loved one spend his first night of more than one with us. We will talk about the individual you care for and what are your expectations from us. We want to establish a healthy communication and avoid pitfalls while working with you caregivers.

Mental health wellness coaching

Remember that even if we created a pleasant environment for individuals that you care for, you, caregivers are our main goal.

Your well being matters to us, because in order to help others, you need to be healthy in whole; Mentally, Psychologically, physically and emotionally. When you become overstressed, feeling that you are indispensable and you can’t take time off without feeling guilty, then it’s time to contact us before you start having negative thinking, overreacting to relatively minor things, making mistakes, not sleeping enough, irritability and argumentativeness, those are strong signs of burnout or compassion fatigue (Babel,2012). All of these will lead to a poor social life as well. Our goal is that you remain the best of yourself. Get out, enlarge your social circle, hit the gym, eat healthy, relax and care for your mental health.

Flexible respite time and community inclusion

Do not let caring for your loved stop you or delay something you want to do; at REDS we have emergency time schedule for unplanned drop in.

We can accommodate caregivers for hours, days, weeks or months. Whatever time suit you, we got your back and we promise you that your loved ones won’t be bored while under our care.
