Respite Care

Caregivers need care too

Looking after a parent or spouse is a labor of love, and it is exhausting. Respite care gives your loved one a safe, comfortable place to stay — or trusted help at home — for a short time, so the family caregiver can take a break, travel, handle their own health, or simply rest.

When families use respite care

• A family caregiver needs a break, a vacation or time for their own health
• A loved one is recovering after a hospital stay and is not ready to be home alone
• The family is planning a trip or has a work commitment
• The family wants a trial stay to see whether a community feels right before a longer move

A respite stay can last a few days or a few weeks.

How we help

Short stays are not offered everywhere, and availability can change quickly. We find out what your loved one needs and when, then help you find trusted temporary care that fits — so you can step away knowing they are in good hands.

Our service is free to families, so you never pay for our guidance.
