Respite Care in Burnsville, MN
Short-term stays in our assisted living home, so family caregivers can rest, travel or recover while their loved one is safe and well cared for.
A real break for you, real care for them.
Caring for a parent or spouse at home is meaningful work, and it is also exhausting. Respite care gives family caregivers time to rest, travel, handle their own health or simply catch their breath, knowing their loved one is in good hands.
During a respite stay, your loved one lives in our Burnsville home and receives the same care as our long-term residents: help with daily living, medications, home-cooked meals and trained staff on site around the clock. Families also use a short stay after a hospital or rehab visit, or to see whether assisted living is the right fit.
