Respite Care Program

The MPF’s Respite Care Program connects individuals with respite agencies across Michigan and offers financial assistance to help cover respite services. Care may take place at home, in adult day centers, or in short-term facilities (overnight care), but is not available to those living in group homes or assisted living facilities. Services may include companionship, meal preparation, medication reminders, transportation, light housekeeping, bathing/dressing, mobility support, and other daily living assistance.

Eligibility requires a respite care application, physician confirmation of a Parkinson’s diagnosis (or related disorder), and demonstration of financial need. Applications are reviewed individually, and processing may take up to one month.
