Respite Care FAQs

How long can I schedule respite care for?

You can book respite care for just a few hours, several days, or longer. Our flexible scheduling ensures you get the coverage you need — no hourly minimums required.

Will my loved one have the same caregiver each time?

We do our best to provide consistency by assigning caregivers familiar with your loved one’s needs and routines, ensuring comfort and continuity of care.
