What Your Respite Care Should Be Like
The respite care may include infant care,
before and after school care, or care in the home of children. The
respite care may include adult day care, in-home care or
institutional care of adults.
What does respite care look like, what does it feel like?
Respite care should provide a safe, quality atmosphere for
children and adults who require care because of illness, or
disabilities and have caregivers who need to receive periodic
breaks from caring for them.
Respite care should be a complete, unconditional support for the
caregiver and for the family of the one requiring care.
The respite care may include infant care, before and after
school care, or care in the home of children. The respite care may
include adult day care, in-home care or institutional care of
adults.
Many children with disabilities benefit from respite care
including those with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy,
hydrocephalus, genetic abnormalities, or those who have been
injured in an accident. Other children who need respite care have
cognitive challenges such as those who have Down’s syndrome,
genetic etiologies such as mental retardation or brain damage and
also those children who have sensorial handicaps such as those who
are blind, deaf, or have speech defects. The respite care needs to
be as individualized as those needs of those they care for. The
need for respite is huge and filling the need is important for the
day-to-day survival of the families with special need children or
adults with special challenges.
The respite care should be tailored for the individual needs of
the caregiver and the individual receiving care. The respite care
should benefit both the routine caregiver and the person who is in
need of care. This requires the respite organization or individual
to be able to accurately assess the needs of the family who
requires the respite care.
Is there any supervision of the respite workers and if so, how are they supervised and how often do they receive evaluations?
What is the cost of the respite care and what does it include?
How much time is required to reserve respite care services?
How are emergency situations handled?
How is the respite program evaluated?

When meeting the needs of a child, the respite care should have
the objective of caring the for developmental disabilities by
meeting the unique challenges of the individual child. The
environment whether this is in the child's home or in a day care
center should be interactive, stimulating and safe. It should
address the physical, emotional, mental and social needs of the
individual child.
When meeting the needs of an adult, requiring respite care the
objective should be to access the physical, mental, emotional and
social needs of the adult in a way that both the caregiver and the
adult requiring need will be able to trust the respite workers.
The respite care should look like it meets the needs of all
those involved including the person who needs care, the regular
caregiver and other family members. It should feel like warm
comfort, safety and a sense of well being.
