Planned Respite
A comprehensive resource for those experiencing an increase in symptoms that cannot be managed at home without additional support, Planned Respite is a voluntary, short-term intervention that helps individuals avoid unnecessary hospitalization while regaining stability in their community. Planned Respite is provided by trained staff at either home-like settings within the community or at the person’s own place of residence. It can also be used to provide family members, significant others and legal guardians relief from care responsibilities.
 
Please contact Desh Edwards from Westchester’s Department of Community Mental Health at 914-995-6753 or at dle1@westchestergov.com for approval. Once eligibility has been confirmed and approved by DCMH, Bibi Salim, MHA’s Program Director will contact you to discuss your respite care needs and coordinate accommodations. Click here for our Planned Respite Referral Application
 
For more information, please contact Bibi Salim at 914-966-9293 or Salimb@mhawestchester.org.
