Respite Care
What is respite?
Respite care is an essential part of the overall support that families may need to keep their family member with a disability at home. The word "respite" means to take a break from the daily challenges of caring for a child or a parent with special needs. It can be planned for a few hours or for as long as a weekend. Respite can take place in your home or temporarily in another setting, such as a day center or in the community. Respite can take place regularly or intermittently, as you need it; however, it does need to be planned in advance. Who can receive respite services?
Families of people who have documented developmental disabilities are eligible for respite services. Some Respite Programs serve limited age groups. Is there a cost for respite?
Most respite programs are funded by the Medicaid Waiver and for those individuals enrolled in the HCBS Waiver there is no charge. What are the types of respite ASSURED HEALTHCARE SOLOUTIONS Offers?
At Assured Healthcare Services, we offer in-home respite and out of home respite services. Out of home respite services may be offered after school, on weekends, or on an as-needed basis at one of People Inc.'s Free Standing Respite Houses. What are the differences between the types of respite programs?
In-home respite provides a break from care in the family's own home. Hours are set up individually with the respite worker. Out of home respite services are offered outside of the family's home. *After school respite services: At a time when their peers may no longer need supervision after school, some kids with developmental disabilities still need supervision, support and/or structured activities. After school respite offers fun activities provided by our trained staff (like cooking, games, or art projects), homework help, or the opportunity to hang out with new friends and take a break.
*Recreational respite opportunities: This respite service offers individuals the chance to become more active and involved in the community. Staff members accompany individuals on recreational activities such the movies, bowling, restaurants, etc. This is a great time to meet new people and try new activities!
*Respite Houses: These free-standing respite sites are designed to offer a safe and supportive environment as needed to individuals and their families. Our well trained and caring staff are on site whenever we have a guest. In addition to providing for a person's care needs, our staff offer fun and creative activities at the house and in the community, so families get a break and the guests who stay with us enjoy a mini-vacation as well. Families may choose to schedule hourly time or a number of days as best meets their needs. Is transportation to or from program included?
In general, families are responsible for transporting their family member to and from Respite. Some school districts will provide transportation to respite sites and then families pick them up to take them home. How do I apply for respite services?
Speak with your service coordinator about the type of respite services that you are interested in so that we help you complete the appropriate application forms. If you do not have a service coordinator.
