LHIN is conducting a survey to understand what informal caregivers need with
respect to respite services. Respite services provide a regular caregiver with a
break, time to do something for themselves or relief from day-to-day caregiving.
Information from the survey will inform planning for respite services in the
LHIN and assist in designing respite services that are truly
client-centred.
