Respite care for caregivers...what advice do you have? [View all]

My friend/former teacher's husband fell, cracked some ribs, home now and she needs respite care. I gave her my limited advice since my husband went into a facility after spinal surgery. What she needs is to get a situation where she can have the burdens eased for her. She's tiny and he's a big guy. She's exhausted and needs to take care of herself.

Does anyone have some ideas I can offer her?
