There are known to be approximately 50 million caregivers, including respite carers, across the United States providing care for their loved ones in need. Not only can it be a very demanding commitment, but many have full-time jobs as well. Respite services providers such as agencies and facilities can provide "short-term" or temporary relief to the person in need to give the family caregiver a break.

Statistics show that being a family caregiver can not only lead to social and health-related risks, but put a strain on marriages and work. Respite care provides that "stress-relief" and allows the family caregiver to get a break and recharge
