What respite can cost in Ohio
Respite is short-term relief for a family caregiver. No survey prices it on its own, so the estimates below are worked out from Ohio prices for in-home care, adult day and assisted living.
- In-home respite: about $34/hour from the local in-home care median at 44 hours a week. Roughly $272 for an 8-hour day, or $1,360 for a 40-hour week.
- Adult day respite: about $90/day (monthly adult-day median ÷ 20 program days), or about $450 for a five-day week.
- Short stay in assisted living: about $203/day (local assisted-living monthly ÷ 30), or about $1,421 for a week. Communities often bill a higher short-stay rate; ask before booking.
Each figure divides a local monthly median into hours or days. More on our methodology page.
