The Alzheimer's Respite program provides in-home care for people with Alzheimer's Disease when the primary caregiver is not there. The service offers brief periods of relief to caregivers and provides them with time away from caregiving responsibilities. Caregivers are able to take a break with the peace of mind that their loved one will receive care and supervision while they are away.
Public funding means that the program is paid for, in part or in whole, by the government.
Some publicly-funded programs have eligibility requirements and provide services at low cost or no cost to people who qualify. For more information, please see the Sources of Funding section of this web site. We hope that you find what you're looking for.
