What is Respite Care?

Respite care occurs when someone else provides care for the individual you are caring for, allowing you to rest or attend to other matters. Respite can last a few hours, overnight, or for a couple of days.

Respite care can provide a temporary break for caregivers, allowing them to rest and recharge.
