Our service

In-home respite care

Respite is non-medical care delivered in the consumer's home by a trained caregiver, funded through the regional center. It gives the primary caregiver scheduled, reliable time away while the consumer stays safe and supported in familiar surroundings.

What a respite shift includes

  • Supervision and companionship in the family home
  • Assistance with bathing, grooming, dressing, and toileting
  • Meal preparation and feeding support
  • Mobility and transfer assistance
  • Medication reminders
  • Light housekeeping related to the consumer
  • Support with daily routines and behavior plans

Respite care is non-medical. Our caregivers do not perform skilled nursing tasks, administer injections, or provide medical treatment.

Children

Support for families raising a child with autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, epilepsy, or another developmental disability.

Adults

Respite for adults with developmental or intellectual disabilities living at home with family, including help with personal care and daily living skills.

Families

Scheduled relief hours so parents, guardians, and siblings can rest, work, or attend to the rest of the household.

How families get started

Respite hours are authorized by your regional center service coordinator. Ask your coordinator to refer you to Maulin Home Care Services — or have them submit the referral online.
