Easter Seals Disability Services

Respite

Caregivers of a person with a disability occasionally need time away - whether it be to simply refresh or to attend to other family matters. Easter Seals Arc offers respite service two ways - in the Easter Seals Arc Broadway House or in your home.

Broadway House provides temporary care for adults and children with disabilities in a home-like residential atmosphere that provides:

In-home respite provides the same high quality care by trained, certified staff bringing their skills to the residence of the person needing care.

At Broadway House or in your home, the bottom line remains the same...you have peace of mind while away and someone you love is receiving excellent care from the staff of Easter Seals Arc.

For important information on respite services, contact District 3 of the Bureau of Developmental Disabilities Services (BDDS or known as 'beads').  They will be able to provide you with information on eligibility and intake procedures.  The local BDDS office is located at 219 West Wayne Street in Fort Wayne, IN 46802. Phone: (260) 423-2571 or (877) 218-3061, fax: (260) 424-2830
