Crossroads Community's Respite Care Program allows a consumer to remain in his or her home by providing relief for the care-giver.  A "respite plan" is developed for each consumer to ensure that his or her special needs are met...and can involve in-home or out-of-home services depending on the support needed.

IN-HOME RESPITE CARE

Care and support are provided  in the individual's home by Crossroads Community staff members, freeing the care-giver of responsibility for up to ten hours a day.

OUT OF HOME PARTIAL DAY RESPITE

Care is provided by Crossroads Community staff members for part of the day at a location elsewhere in the community.

OUT OF HOME OVERNIGHT RESPITE

Crossroads Community, Inc. has affiliated with the local Departments of Social Services and other licensed agencies to provide overnight respite care utilizing licensed foster care homes and agency respite beds, for one to three nights.
