Common Questions

Frequently asked about this service.

How quickly can respite care start?

In many cases we can arrange respite coverage within 24–48 hours of inquiry for scheduled relief. For urgent or crisis situations, our team works to expedite placement as quickly as possible. Contact us directly at (678) 536-6668 to discuss same-day or next-day availability.

What is the minimum number of hours for a respite visit?

Our standard minimum is typically 4 hours per visit, though this can vary based on the care level required and scheduling. Overnight respite is available for families who need extended coverage. We work with each family to find the schedule that fits their needs.

Is pediatric respite care covered by Medicaid in Georgia?

Yes. Respite care for qualifying children — including those enrolled in the Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) Medicaid waiver — may be covered at no out-of-pocket cost to eligible families. We can verify your child's eligibility and walk you through the enrollment process at no charge.
