Respite Coordination from the ARC Montgomery County

If you reside in Montgomery County and are an unpaid, primary caregiver for a frail senior citizen, living in the same household, you may apply for respite coordination from The Arc Montgomery County.

A respite program can provide short-term relief for a few hours, a day, a weekend, or sometimes longer. However, respite care is not a substitute for ongoing care or adult day care.  It’s just a way to support families who take care of their loved ones at home.  Families can choose from many respite care venues, including the family home, adult medical day programs, and approved respite facilities.
