One night. Two weeks. However long you need to breathe.
A short stay in a licensed, vetted community — so you can travel, recover, or sleep through the night. No 30-day minimum.
Three steps, and the first one is a phone call.
Step one — Tell us the dates
Step three — You hand off and go
Step one — Tell us the dates
A ten-minute call. When you need to be away, how long, and an honest picture of what your parent needs — walking, bathing, medications, memory, wandering, oxygen, diet. No forms yet.
Step two — We find the room
Step three — You hand off and go
Step one — Tell us the dates
We work our partner list of licensed Texas communities and come back with real options: which ones have a bed on your dates, what each costs all in, and what we know about how they're actually run.
Step three — You hand off and go
Step three — You hand off and go
Step three — You hand off and go
We walk you through the one piece of paperwork Texas requires — a recent physician's exam — and coordinate the move-in. You drop off a suitcase. Then you go do the thing you've been putting off.
Published rates, because nobody else publishes theirs.
Not one assisted living community in San Antonio, Tyler, or Longview lists a respite rate on its website. Here is ours. Every price is all-in: room, three meals, personal care, medication management, housekeeping, activities, and awake staff overnight.
Assisted Living
$150 / day
For a parent who needs help with daily tasks but is steady on their feet and oriented. Shared room, one-night minimum. Private room from $185/day. No community fee for true short stays.
Memory Care
$225 / day
For dementia — secured community, higher staffing ratio, staff trained for wandering and sundowning. Alzheimer's-certified Texas Type B communities. One-night minimum. Higher acuity quoted before arrival, never after.
Two weeks or more
10% off
For surgery recovery, a long trip, or the stretch between a hospital discharge and a real decision. Texas allows up to 60 days per respite stay, and one assessment covers six months of repeat stays. Weekly billing, cancel with 48 hours' notice.
What isn't included, so you're not surprised: transportation to and from the community, prescription medications themselves, incontinence supplies beyond a starter supply, salon services, and one-to-one sitter care. If a community charges a deposit or assessment fee on your dates, that number appears in your written quote, not on the invoice afterward.
