Respite care provides short-term support for individuals who need temporary supervision,
assistance, or clinical oversight while family caregivers take time to rest, travel, or manage
other responsibilities. It offers a safe, structured environment during periods when ongoing care
at home is temporarily unavailable.
At Pasadena Nursing Center, respite care is provided in a supervised setting where comfort,
safety, and continuity of care are maintained throughout the stay.
What Is Respite Care
Respite care is short-term care designed to support individuals who cannot be left alone safely
for a period of time. It allows caregivers to step away temporarily while ensuring their loved
one continues to receive appropriate supervision and support.
