What Is Respite Care?
Respite care is short-term, temporary care for older adults who typically live at home but need a place to stay while their caregiver rests, travels, or attends to other responsibilities.
Common reasons families choose respite care include:
- Needing time to recharge and prevent burnout
- Traveling or being out of town
- Preparing for or recovering from a surgery or medical procedure
- Exploring long-term care options with a trial stay
Caring for the Caregiver
Support for You. Care for Your Loved One.
Being the primary caregiver for a loved one is an act of love — but it can also be exhausting. Whether you’re juggling caregiving with work, raising a family, or simply needing time to recharge, it’s important to know that asking for help is not only okay — it’s necessary.
At ASAP Care, we offer respite care services that give family caregivers a break while ensuring your loved one receives attentive, professional care in a warm, homelike setting.
Whether you need a few days, a couple of weeks, or something in between, we’re here to step in with comfort, routine, and peace of mind.
What You Can Expect
During their stay, your loved one will be treated just like a full-time resident — receiving all the same benefits, care, and personal attention.
Our respite stays include:
- A fully furnished private bedroom
- Home-cooked meals and snacks
- 24/7 attentive staff and medication assistance
- Help with bathing, dressing, and personal care
- Activities and opportunities for social engagement
- A calming, well-kept home environment
Whether they’re with us for a few nights or a few weeks, our goal is for your loved one to feel comfortable, welcomed, and cared for.
