Respite care gives caregivers temporary relief. These short-term substitute carers can be vital to the caregivers to keep them recharged and help maintain a positive outlook. It may be necessary to turn towards respite care when challenges and difficulties present themselves. When one should start or return to respite care is an important conversation to have and something to think about. 

In this guide, the ARCH National Respite Network helps individuals and families to make an informed and well-thought-out decision on respite care.
