Community PedsCare Program Overview

Respite: Because caregivers need a break, too

We know that your child’s well-being is your priority, but don’t forget about your own health and wellness. Respite care allows families and other caregivers of Community PedsCare patients to take a break or “respite” from caregiving duties for short periods of time.

Respite care is not just helping the child, but helping the whole family. — Mother of Hayden Chadwell

From graduation and wedding ceremonies, grocery shopping, socializing, to taking a nap or reading, respite care allows family members to enjoy simple pleasures and complete routine tasks that aren’t so simple or routine when around-the-clock care is required. During respite care, a skilled pediatric nurse tends to the child’s needs, providing peace of mind to family members that their child is in good hands.
