How To Access Respite

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a family support service that provides temporary relief from the physical and emotional demands involved in caring for a family member with a developmental and/or physical disability. Respite creates greater opportunities for all family members to live actively and participate in community activities while allowing caregivers time for themselves.

Community Living Sarnia-Lambton and Lambton County Develepmental Services offer a variety of respite programs and services.  Explore the respite options  available for your family.   Please note that some options may have waiting lists.
