Respite is a service that provides temporary relief from care giving to a child’s primary caregiver during the times when they would normally provide care. This means that respite nursing or attendant care can be provided at any time that a parent/caregiver is not working or in school and during a time in which the child is not in daycare or school. Respite caregivers cannot work in conjunction with providers of other services. Respite is intended to provide relief to caregivers so they may do things that they may not be able to do otherwise, for example; grocery shopping, caring for other children, taking a nap, or going on a date.
