What respite can cost in Washington

Respite is short-term relief for a family caregiver. No survey prices it on its own, so the estimates below are worked out from Washington 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.
  • Adult day respite: about $270/day (monthly adult-day median ÷ 20 program days), or about $1,350 for a five-day week.
  • Short stay in assisted living: about $253/day (local assisted-living monthly ÷ 30), or about $1,771 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.
