Research shows that about 70% of caregivers die prior to the person they’re caring for due to ignoring their own health and well-being.
Let’s help prevent and decrease such an unfortunate reality, and support family caregivers in our families and communities. Most caregivers shy away from asking for help with the belief that asking for help will indicate some sort of failure or weakness on their part.
Its time we show our love and support to them while they’re alive and are able to enjoy the opportunity of taking a break for selfcare.

in Atlanta, Georgia and throughout the Caribbean.
Caring for Caregivers
Pleasant Respite Oasis – A 501(c)(3) Nonprofit Restoring Balance and Joy Through Life-Changing Respite Retreats and Transformative In-Person and Online Workshops
Family caregivers often dedicate most of their time to caring for loved ones, often without breaks, financial compensation, or resources to focus on their own well-being. This relentless commitment can leave them feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and unable to prioritize their own self-care.
At Pleasant Respite Oasis, our respite retreats are thoughtfully designed to provide caregivers and socially isolated senior women with the rest, pampering, and revitalization they truly deserve.
Whether it’s a one-day escape or a rejuvenating weekend retreat, participants gain practical self-care tools, stress management techniques, and the motivation to prioritize their own needs. These retreats help caregivers rediscover joy and enthusiasm, empowering them to strike a healthier balance in their lives. By focusing on their own well-being, caregivers become less stressed, more energized, and better equipped to face life with a positive outlook.
Join our uplifting workshops—offered both in-person and online
Our workshops are thoughtfully designed to empower caregivers with essential tools, proven self-care strategies, and a nurturing community to help restore balance and joy in their lives. Participants will practice stress-relief techniques, set achievable SMART goals for self-care, and develop mindful communication skills to build and strengthen positive relationships with family members and others.
Our Mission
At Pleasant Respite Oasis, our mission is to make a profound and lasting impact on the lives of caregivers and socially isolated seniors. We aim to improve their physical and mental well-being while spiritually uplifting them through joyful experiences that bring healing to their mind, body, and soul.
Many of us were raised and influenced by our grandparents and elders within our families and communities. Now, we have the opportunity to honor their contributions and encourage them to embrace the positive aspects of aging.
Sadly, many seniors feel forgotten and unappreciated—a reality that can be deeply heartbreaking. Yet, as we all grow older, it’s vital to reflect on how we treat our elders. We must take intentional steps to honor their life experiences and the wisdom they hold.
Age does not erase dreams, hopes, or the value of a lifetime of contributions. Together, let’s make a meaningful effort to celebrate and support our seniors, showing them the respect, care, and recognition they so richly deserve.
“When “I” is replaced by “WE”, even ILLNESS becomes WELLNESS!”
Let’s make it happen!
We get to put joy in their hearts and an answer to their prayers.
“A joyful, cheerful heart brings healing to both body and soul. ”
