Respite Services at Barrantes

Our 1:1 respite services provide flexible, scheduled support tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals and their families. Whether offered daily, weekly, or monthly, respite care ensures that individuals receive personalized attention in a safe and supportive environment, either at home or in the community.

Respite workers engage clients in meaningful activities, assist with daily routines, and promote skill development and independence. Families and caregivers can take a much-needed break, knowing their loved one is receiving compassionate, professional care. With customizable scheduling options, our goal is to create a positive and enriching experience that supports both the individual and their family.

For caregivers who need extended relief, we provide overnight respite services in a structured, comfortable setting. Our trained staff ensure that individuals receive personalized care, including assistance with daily living activities, medication management, and engaging recreational opportunities. 

Unexpected situations can arise, and we are here to help. Our service is designed to provide immediate, short-term support in emergency situations, such as:

• Caregiver illness or hospitalization
• Unexpected travel or commitments
• Behavioural or situational crises requiring temporary alternative care

We prioritize urgent cases and make every effort to accommodate emergency placements as quickly as possible. 

If you are seeking long-term placement options, please visit Barrantes Group Living Inc. to explore more opportunities. 

We provide respite support to children approved for Urgent Response Support through the Ontario Autism Program (OAP). These 12-week, intensive programs provide families with immediate relief and the opportunity to build the skills necessary to navigate life's challenges.
