What is Respite Care? Respite care is a short-term residential option for caregivers and their loved ones. A quality respite program will provide opportunity for socialization, structured activities designed to meet the individuals abilities and interests, and a well-deserved rest for the caregiver. Respite care can also be valuable while the individual  or caregiver is recovering from an acute illness or hospitalization.

If a caregiver becomes unable to provide care for any reason, having an established respite plan helps ensure quality, familiar care for your loved one. Respite visits improve an individual's quality of life by providing an opportunity for socialization and daily specialized activities. Regular respite visits improve a caregivers ability to provide care to their loved ones by offering insight into a client's care needs, as well as the opportunity to rest and care for one's self.
