Respite Definition: What is Respite Care and When Do I Need It? The dictionaryâs respite care definition is âa short period of rest or relief from something difficult or unpleasantâ or âan interval of rest or reliefâ. Respite care generally refers to care provided to offer such a break to a primary caregiver.
Respite literally means a period of rest or relief. Respite care provides a caregiver temporary relief from the responsibilities of caring for individuals with chronic physical or mental disabilities. Respite care is often referred to as a gift of time. Respite was developed in response to the deinstitutionalization movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Maintaining individuals in their natural homes rather than placing them in long-term care facilities was viewed as beneficial to the individual, the involved family, and society (in terms of lowered health care costs).
