FAQ
Respite care questions
What is respite care?
Respite care is temporary, short-term care that gives a family caregiver a break while a professional caregiver takes over. It can be a few hours or several days.
What are the signs I need respite care?
Exhaustion, irritability, missed sleep, neglecting your own health, and feeling overwhelmed are common signs of caregiver burnout — respite care helps prevent it.
Can I get overnight or weekend respite?
Yes. We provide daytime, overnight, weekend, and 24-hour respite coverage. Call 301-327-1444 to arrange.
