What it does

Respite Care Plan is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Plan a genuine break from caregiving — arrange the coverage, hand off the essentials, and actually rest — because respite is what lets you keep going. Use when asked I need a break from caregiving, how do I arrange respite care, I can't leave them alone, or help me get time off from caring. Produces the coverage options for your situation (family, paid respite, day programs, short-stay), a handoff pack so whoever covers has what they need, how to overcome the barriers (guilt, trust, cost, logistics), and a plan…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked I need a break from caregiving
  • How do I arrange respite care
  • I cant leave them alone
  • Help me get time off from caring

Example prompts

  • “I can never get away”
  • “/respite-care-plan”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Find the coverage. Map the realistic options — a family member, paid respite worker, a day program, or a short-stay — matched to the care…
  2. Prepare the handoff. The trust barrier shrinks when whoever covers has a clear pack: routine, medications, contacts, warning signs, and…
  3. Bust the barriers. Guilt (respite is necessary, not selfish), trust (a prepared, competent stand-in), cost (funding routes to research)…
  4. Plan to actually rest. A break spent worrying or catching up on chores isn't respite — decide in advance how you'll genuinely recover, and…
  5. Make it repeatable. One break isn't enough — set up a regular rhythm so respite is a sustained part of the caregiving, not a rare emergency.
  6. Get professional help for complex needs. Where care is medically complex, use professional respite services; this handles the planning…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Respite Care Plan loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 168 tokens; SKILL.md has 684 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~168
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Plan a genuine break from caregiving — arrange the coverage, hand off the essentials, and actually rest — because respite is what lets you keep going. Use when asked I need a break from caregiving, how do I arrange respite care, I can't leave them alone, or help me get time off from caring. Produces the coverage options for your situation (family, paid respite, day programs, short-stay), a handoff pack so whoever covers has what they need, how to overcome the barriers (guilt, trust, cost, logistics), and a plan to actually rest during the break rather than worry — turning 'I can never get away' into a real, repeatable break. Not medical advice.

Respite-Care Plan

"I can't leave them" is how caregivers burn out — but respite (planned breaks) is exactly what makes long-term caregiving sustainable. The barriers are real: guilt, not trusting anyone else, cost, and the logistics of handing off. This plans a genuine break: who can cover, the handoff so they're set up to succeed, how to get past the barriers, and how to actually rest instead of worrying the whole time — so the break happens and repeats. Not medical advice.

What This Skill Produces

  • Coverage options — the realistic ways to get covered for your situation: family/friends, paid in-home respite, adult day programs, or a short-stay facility break, with pros/cons
  • A handoff pack — what whoever covers needs to succeed: the routine, medications, contacts, what-ifs, and the person's preferences — so you can actually step away
  • Barrier-busting — addressing the specific things stopping you: guilt, not trusting others, cost/funding to look into, and the logistics
  • A "actually rest" plan — how to use the break to genuinely recover (and quiet the worry) rather than spend it anxious or doing chores
  • A make-it-repeatable setup — turning a one-off into a regular, sustainable rhythm of breaks
  • A boundary — logistics support, not medical advice; complex care needs professional respite arrangements

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • Who you care for — their needs and how much supervision/care they require
  • The break you need — a few hours, a day, or longer
  • Who/what's available — family, budget for paid help, local services
  • The barrier — guilt, trust, cost, logistics, or "no one else can do it"
  • What rest looks like for you — what would actually recharge you

Framework: Arrange, Hand Off, Rest, Repeat

  1. Find the coverage. Map the realistic options — a family member, paid respite worker, a day program, or a short-stay — matched to the care level and your budget.
  2. Prepare the handoff. The trust barrier shrinks when whoever covers has a clear pack: routine, medications, contacts, warning signs, and preferences. Set them up to succeed.
  3. Bust the barriers. Guilt (respite is necessary, not selfish), trust (a prepared, competent stand-in), cost (funding routes to research), and logistics (start small) — address each directly.
  4. Plan to actually rest. A break spent worrying or catching up on chores isn't respite — decide in advance how you'll genuinely recover, and how to quiet the worry (a check-in call, trusting the pack).
  5. Make it repeatable. One break isn't enough — set up a regular rhythm so respite is a sustained part of the caregiving, not a rare emergency.
  6. Get professional help for complex needs. Where care is medically complex, use professional respite services; this handles the planning, not the medical care.

Output Format

Respite plan: caring for [who] · break needed [length]

Coverage options: [family/friends · paid in-home respite · day program · short-stay] — with pros/cons for you. Handoff pack (so you can step away): routine · medications · contacts · warning signs · preferences. Bust the barriers: guilt → [necessary, not selfish] · trust → [prepared stand-in] · cost → [funding to research] · logistics → [start small]. Actually rest: [how to genuinely recover + quiet the worry — a check-in, trusting the pack]. Make it repeatable: [a regular rhythm of breaks, not a one-off].

Logistics support — not medical advice. For medically complex care, arrange professional respite services.

Quality Checks

  • Maps realistic coverage options for the care level and budget
  • Provides a handoff pack so stepping away is possible
  • Addresses the specific barriers (guilt, trust, cost, logistics)
  • Plans for genuine rest, not worry or chores
  • Sets up a repeatable rhythm, not a one-off
  • Flags professional respite for complex needs; not medical advice

Anti-Patterns

  • "You deserve a break" with no actual coverage plan.
  • No handoff pack — so the caregiver can't trust leaving.
  • Ignoring the guilt/trust barriers.
  • A break spent worrying or doing chores.
  • A one-off instead of a sustainable rhythm.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "I desperately need a break from caring for my husband — how do I arrange it?"
  • "How do I get respite care so I can rest?"
  • "I can't leave my mom alone and I'm exhausted. Help me get time off."
  • "I feel too guilty to take a break from caregiving."
  • "Set up a regular break in my caregiving so I don't collapse."
