The Garden offers a Respite Program on an “as available” basis. Respite is a short term stay. Respite residents enjoy all the amenities and services available to full time residents. For those who stay a few days or longer as a Respite Resident, a fully furnished, private studio is provided.

A Respite Day Program, available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., may be scheduled for specific days each week. Participants enjoy all of the services, activities and dining offered to full time residents.

Services for all Respite participants include:

• Well balanced and nutritious meals served in a tastefully designed dining room.
• Medication administration
• Stimulating activities and outings
• Assistance with dressing and personal hygiene as needed
