Respite is a temporary care service that provides relief to primary caregivers of individuals with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or special needs.
It allows caregivers to take a break while ensuring their loved ones receive necessary support in a safe and structured environment.
Respite care can be provided in the individual’s home or at a specialized facility and focuses on assisting with personal care, daily living activities, and health maintenance.
In Florida, respite services must be provided by licensed agencies that comply with AHCA regulations to ensure quality care for individuals and their families.
