Roger, I would check online resources in your area. Whether or not any Forum member may come from your area is unknown (would be nice to think so, though). You might consider some of the caregiving sites out there such as care.com. Try your local NextDoor online if you have one. Can't think of much else. Sure wish you good luck in finding some relief in caregiving. There are some good agencies, but they usually require minimums such as four hours a day three days a week and so on.
Don't know if you have a Faith-based community or not, but might be worth your while accessing some churches for advice of where to find a bit of help. Also any social worker you can find in your area, or any aging care support communities.
CDHS.colorado.gov, your States "Colorado Department of Human Services" has a website that talks of caregiver support. If you access CO Dept of Human Services online they may have numbers and websites to access for your area.
Sure wish you luck in finding something. As Geaton always observes, we have to make the internet our friend and keep up with it; oft times it feels like it's about all we've got.
Respite care can be done at Nursing Homes and assisted living . Check Out care.com or next door .com to see what is available . You can also find Nursing students That offer help .
