What respite can cost in Baltimore

Respite is short-term relief for a family caregiver, not a separate facility class with its own national price survey. The ranges below are derived from published Baltimore, MD figures for in-home care, adult day, and assisted living. They are planning estimates, not quotes.

  • In-home respite: about $35/hour from the local in-home monthly median (44 hrs/week survey standard). Roughly $282 for an 8-hour day, or $1,410 for a 40-hour week.
  • Adult day respite: about $127/day (monthly adult-day median ÷ 20 program days), or about $635 for a five-day week.
  • Facility short-stay (AL slice): about $241/day (local assisted-living monthly ÷ 30), or about $1,687 for a week. Communities often bill a higher short-stay rate; ask before booking.

Method: divide published monthly medians into hourly/daily slices as above. Full notes on our methodology page.

Providers disclosing respite care

How we rank these: we don't. Listed by verification date, newest first.

Providers appear with their government data: license status, capacity, inspection history, and a CMS star rating where the service has one. The order is the date we last verified each record, newest first. Nobody pays to appear, and nobody pays to move up. If a listing says "Sponsored," a provider paid for that placement and the label says so.

Looking for a transparent sort by CMS stars, inspection records, and staffing? That is a separate data ranking, not an editorial pick.

No providers in Baltimore, MD currently carry an official respite care service flag.

Respite Care is a service disclosed on other licensed settings, not a separate facility directory. We only list providers when a state source field says so.
