Respite Services

Respite services provides supervision and support to individuals living in their private homes. Respite is available on a short-term basis for planned activities and vacations or for family emergency situations. Examples for the use of respite services are a parent/caregiver is experiencing medical issues and needs to be hospitalized or the family needs to take care of the needs of another family member and needs additional help.  Respite gives relief to the person who normally provides care. Laurel House, Inc. provides licensed respite in our Community Home. Please see your Supports Coordinator if you need this service. This information is taken from the service definition.
