What is respite care?

Respite care provides short term relief to primary caregivers, giving them time to rest, travel, or spend time with other family and friends.

About Us

Who is Kaergiv for?

Kaergiv supports the people who care for others without pay or adequate resources. Many are family members—spouses, adult children, friends, or neighbors—providing daily help to loved ones who are aging, ill, or living with disabilities. Others are struggling to afford the rising cost of in-home care and need short-term relief. Kaergiv connects these caregivers with gifted hours of professional respite care, giving them a chance to rest, recover, and sustain their ability to keep caring.
