How long does respite care last?
The duration of respite care can vary based on the needs and preferences of the carer and the individual requiring care. It can range from a few hours to several days or weeks. Caregivers can schedule respite care on a regular basis, such as weekly or monthly, or they can arrange it as needed to accommodate specific situations, such as their own vacation or personal commitments.
Can respite care be provided during holidays or weekends?
