About this service
Respite is one of the most important components of services RMACL provides to support the family.
The Respite program helps you plan for out-of-home visits with an extended family for your child. Respite visits can be a special time for the whole family. Your child has opportunities for new friendships and experiences and you, as parents, have the opportunity to do things that arent easy to find the time to do when caring for your child. Some parents choose to spend uninterrupted time with other family members and each other, go to appointments, or simply have a rest from their responsibilities.
Some children, youth and families may require enhanced levels of respite care from 6 days up to a maximum of 14 days per month. RMACL provides this enhanced level of respite on a contract basis in a limited number of situations.
We can structure a range of flexible respite options in the following locations:
- A familys home
- A caregivers home
- Parent & child playgroups
- The community
Who can use it?
Have a child with a developmental disability or delay who is between birth and 19 years of age.
