The following information is about Respite Care.

Respite Care Defined

A few hours to several days of assistance to give a temporary rest or break from caregiving for the individual’s usual caretaker, often a family member or friend. The service can be provided at home or in a facility setting such as a nursing home. Benefits for respite care are included in most long-term care insurance policies. Medicare covers respite care only for the terminally ill under their hospice program.
Restoration of Benefits means once you are benefit-free (as defined in your particular policy) for a specified length of time, usually six months, those benefits already paid out are restored. Not all long-term care policies offer this benefit.

This definition is in context to Long Term Care Insurance. See more contextual defintions for Respite Care.
