What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a vital service that provides temporary relief to families and caregivers responsible for supporting individuals with developmental disabilities. At Arizona Dream Team, our respite care services are designed to ensure individuals receive the same level of care and support they are accustomed to, while their primary caregiver takes a well-deserved break to rest, recharge, or attend to other responsibilities.

Who Can Benefit from Respite Care?

Respite care is available to individuals who qualify for services through Arizona’s Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD). This service is intended to support:

  • Individuals with developmental disabilities, ensuring continuity of care and safety in a comfortable, supervised setting.
  • Caregivers who need temporary relief from their responsibilities.

Types of Respite Care We Provide

We offer flexible respite care options tailored to your needs, including:

  • In-Home Respite Care: Provided in the individual’s home, maintaining familiarity and comfort.
  • Out-of-Home Respite Care: Delivered in a community or residential setting for a change of environment.

Benefits of Respite Care

Respite care offers many advantages for both the caregiver and the individual, such as:

  • Ensuring continuous care and supervision for individuals.
  • Reducing caregiver stress and preventing burnout.
  • Promoting the well-being of both caregivers and individuals.
  • Encouraging independence and social interaction for individuals in respite settings.
