eLifespan Respite

eLifespan Respite

The eLifespan Respite System is a collaborative project of the Center on Children, Families, and the Law, in partnership with the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services and Nebraska Lifespan Respite.

eLifespan Respite was designed by Respite Coordinators to match the needs of caregivers and the needs of care recipients and get that information to providers. This online workspace empowers Respite Coordinators and authorized partners to connect and collaborate in a secure, web-based environment. This collaborative approach is increasing efficiency and helping to improve the implementation and coordination of the Nebraska Lifespan Respite infrastructure. eLifespan Respite creates transparency and enhances collaboration between respite regions and coordinators.

Participants are using eLifespan Respite to foster collaborations, share information, more easily record contacts, better facilitate referrals/follow-ups, submit monthly subgrantee activities/invoices, plan future efforts, and engage in sharing best practices.
