What is Respite Care?
Respite care is a temporary senior care service designed to provide short-term relief for family caregivers. It can range from a few hours to several weeks, offering flexible support based on the caregiver’s and care recipient’s needs. During this time, the individual receives professional care in a safe, supervised environment, such as a specialized facility or in their own home. The purpose of respite care is to prevent caregiver burnout and ensure the person in need of care continues to receive consistent attention and assistance.
