Respite
In Colorado, Community-Based Respite services are designed to provide temporary care and supervision for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities while offering relief and support to their primary caregivers. Respite services help ensure the health, safety, and well-being of the individual while promoting community involvement, social engagement, and meaningful activities in a supportive environment. These services may include assistance with daily living activities, supervision, community outings, social interaction, and skill development, while also giving families and caregivers time to rest, attend to personal responsibilities, or prevent caregiver burnout.
