What respite can cost in Vermont
Respite is short-term relief for a family caregiver. No survey prices it on its own, so the estimates below are worked out from Vermont prices for in-home care, adult day and assisted living.
- In-home respite: about $45/hour from the local in-home care median at 44 hours a week. Roughly $360 for an 8-hour day, or $1,800 for a 40-hour week.
- Short stay in assisted living: about $287/day (local assisted-living monthly ÷ 30), or about $2,009 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.
