In-home respite care
This service is carried out in the family home of those with a dependant between 0 and 65 years old, with special needs.
The service allows families to carry out various activities in their daily lives, such as grocery shopping, going to the movies, date nights, etc., or on an occasional basis, such as medical appointments, etc. Parents can also remain at home while the caregiver cares for the person with special needs and their siblings.
This service must be planned in advance. Families should not consider this to be an emergency service.
