We understand you may have concerns. Here are honest answers to
common questions about hospice respite care at home.
Respite care means our hospice team temporarily takes over full caregiving. You get a break while your loved one receives the same expert nursing, pain management, aide support, and comfort care they always get. It can be scheduled regularly or arranged on short notice.
Yes, Medicare covers respite care as part of the hospice benefit. Under Medicare, respite care can be provided for up to five consecutive days at a time. There may be a small copay of about five percent, but we explain all costs upfront with full transparency.
Medicare allows up to five consecutive days of respite care per period. Respite can be used multiple times throughout the hospice benefit. We also offer flexible daily respite visits built into your ongoing care plan for regular caregiver relief.
