how long will respite care last?

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Does anybody happen to know how fast your part C money gets used up if

you have respite care coming in? We've been given 8 hours a week " until

the money runs out " and I'm trying to figure out how fast that will be

but nobody seems to know. The caregiver who comes says there's usually

no warning, she usually just gets a call saying " the money's gone,

don't go anymore. " If I knew the rate was $15, $20 an hour I could at

least have a rough idea...

Thanks for any information...
