Protect Caregiver Rest Time with a Coverage Plan
A break is not scheduled if nobody is assigned to cover the time around it.
Compare the hours a caregiver wants to step away with the named hours another person can cover; show gaps, not judgments.
What changes the result: the caregiver's chosen break windows and the coverage people voluntarily offer.
Privacy: Calculations run in this browser tab. This tool has no input-upload, account, or AI endpoint. The site may send a page-view signal to Cloudflare; this tool does not add form entries to that signal. A draft is stored only if you choose “Save draft on this device”; that browser storage is not encrypted. Avoid identifiers or sensitive details, and delete saved drafts when finished.
Your entries
The starting rows below are fictional examples. Edit them, replace them with non-sensitive labels and values, or load the sample again. The result is not advice or a source verification.
Amount fields use the same units you enter; the app does not choose a currency. Dates are the ones you provide. Up to 100 rows per run.

What the calculation does
For each block, calculate max(0, hours needed minus hours offered), then add the gaps. The tool cannot establish consent, skill, suitability, or whether a person can cover a task.
Question to keep open: Should a short predictable break take priority over a longer but less certain block?
Boundary: This planner does not provide a clinical care plan or guarantee respite availability. Contact local caregiver support services and follow the recipient's care instructions.
