Hello, Anon.

Thank you for posting.

Respite care generally refers to care provided to offer such a break to a primary caregiver. Respite might be provided full-time for a period such as a week or two (for example while a caregiver travels) or might be provided on an intermittent basis (such as every afternoon or once/week so the caregiver can run errands, rest or attend an activity).
