Respite Care Services provides relief, or respite, to a non-paid caregiver of a child or adult with a chronic disability or terminal illness. Respite Care Services also provides In-Home services to individuals with disabilitites that live alone.

 
The program provides temporary, non-medical care in the home, including companion care and direct, hands-on personal care. The goal is to provide relief to the caregiver so they can take time for themselves and alleviate stress from caregiving.
 
Respite Care Service also provides In-Home services to individuals with disabilities to encourage independent living for as long as possible.  Individuals are provided with sixteen (16) hours of services each month.
 
Who We Serve
Eligibility for respite care services is determined by the Department of Integrated Services for Individual with Disabilities (DISID).  If DISID determines a consumer eligible and respite or In-Home care is one of the services approved, a referral is made to Catholic Social Service (CSS).  CSS Respite Care Services then conducts an initial assessment of each potential consumer for service needs.
