What Families Say About Our Respite Services

Booked Same-Day—Exactly What We Needed

I called Blue Horizon on a Tuesday morning after my husband was hospitalized unexpectedly. By 3 PM that same day, my mother-in-law was checked in and settled. The staff handled everything quickly and professionally. When I picked her up five days later, she'd been well cared for and I'd had time to focus on my husband's recovery. Worth every dollar.

Emergency Respite When I Needed It Most

I threw my back out and physically couldn't lift or assist my wife anymore. I called Blue Horizon in a panic, and they had a room available the next morning. The intake process was fast, the staff was kind, and my wife was safe while I recovered. They turned a crisis into a manageable situation.

Clear Pricing, No Surprises

I've used respite care at three different facilities, and Blue Horizon is the only one that gave me an exact price upfront with no hidden fees. They quoted $175/day, and that's exactly what I paid. Everything was included meals, activities, medication management. I appreciated the transparency and will definitely book again.

Professional Care, Family Atmosphere

We used respite care as a trial run before committing to full-time placement. The staff treated my mother with genuine respect and warmth not just going through the motions. She felt comfortable immediately. After seeing how well she adjusted, we moved forward with confidence. Best decision we made.

Gave Me My First Real Break in Two Years

Caregiving 24/7 had completely worn me down. I booked a 10-day respite stay so I could visit my daughter across the country. My dad thrived during his stay he actually enjoyed the activities and made friends. I came back rested and ready to care for him again. This service saved me from complete burnout.

They Made Booking Simple and Stress-Free

I was dreading the paperwork and complicated intake process, but Blue Horizon made it easy. One phone call, a quick form via email, and we were set. Drop-off took 20 minutes. They walked me through everything and answered all my questions without making me feel rushed. When you're already stressed, that kind of service matters.
