Expert Skilled Nursing Respite Care: Providing short-term compassionate, supportive and professional care to those in need.
Skilled nursing Respite care is a short-term, temporary stay at a Covenant Living skilled care community. This level of care allows customers family or loved ones who are often primary caregivers to take a break from providing daily care. Respite care is provided by licensed clinical and healthcare professionals. Skilled nursing respite care ensures that the care recipient continues to receive high-quality assistance, medical attention, and specialized support during a caregiver’s absence.
Benefits for Caregivers
Skilled nursing respite offer caregivers a vital opportunity to recharge and attend to their own wellbeing. By entrusting their loved ones to trained professionals, caregivers can temporarily step back from the demands of caregiving, reducing stress and preventing burnout.
This break allows caregivers to focus on their physical and mental health, engage in activities they enjoy and maintain important social connections. This essential support not only enhances the overall caregiving experience but also strengthens the caregiver’s ability to provide sustained and compassionate care in the long run.
Skilled Nursing Respite includes:
- 24-hour skilled nursing care
- Three daily meals, snacks, specialized diets, and dietician support
- Social Services consults and support
- Room and board
- Out-patient therapies (with a doctor’s order)
- Daily scheduled activities and spiritual ministries
- Complimentary Wi-Fi
- Laundry and linen service
- Daily housekeeping
- Semi-private or private room (pending availability)
- Pharmaceutical services
- Beauty and barber services
We are here to help.
Keep in mind that you do not have to be a current resident of a Covenant community to benefit from a Skilled Nursing respite stay. Even though respite care is temporary, it can make a big difference in your healthcare journey. Please call our Healthcare Navigator (877) 215-9576 to learn more.

A group of our residents, known as the Yarn Buddies, have created handmade teddy bears that are now riding along with Mercer Island’s Police and Fire Departments!
These soft, lovable bears will be given to children during emergencies to bring comfort and calm in tough situations. It’s a beautiful example of our residents using their talents to serve the greater community.
We’re proud to support our local heroes and even prouder of the compassionate hearts behind each bear.
