Nebraska Lifespan Respite Network

Nebraska Lifespan Respite Network Taking care of yourself is one of the best ways to help your loved one.

Respite care, planned or emergency, is the provision of short-term, temporary relief to those who are caring for family members with special needs. The purpose of the Nebraska Lifespan Respite Network is to be a single contact point for providers and families seeking respite resources across the state. We also connect businesses, non-profits and work with partners and affiliates to increase caregivers and providers access to respite services, support and education.
