Respite care is a short-term stay in a senior living community, from a few days to several weeks. It gives family caregivers a break, supports recovery after a hospital stay, and lets a loved one try community life before deciding on a move.
Respite stays are usually priced by the day or week and often include a furnished suite, meals, care and activities. Ask each community about minimum stay lengths and what is included.
