The article presents economic connections to ethical decision-making within the dilemmas that can be encountered in helping professions and caring for family members in respite care. Completely new changes of an economic and social nature after the events of 1989 in the then Czech society can also be seen in comprehensive human care, even in such difficult events as the care of a loved one with congenital or acquired disabilities. Since this period, respite care has been developing in the Czech Republic according to acquired and proven models from abroad. In essence, these are caring activities in early care, foster care, gerontological to palliative care for incurable disease and end of life. It is logical that in connection with the change in the demographic structure of the population with the ageing of the population, respite care will increase in importance in the conditions of the Czech Republic. The purpose of respite care is to ensure rest and regeneration as a result of significant psychological stress and prevent the subsequent emergence of burnout syndrome of a lay caregiver, etc. In addition to social programs of leisure activities and community, work can contribute to these social enterprises with a focus on circular technologies. This is also the challenge for economic and social policy to implement, on the principle of subsidiarity, the creation of innovative projects, especially within the cities of municipalities and regions. These projects can fulfil all social, economic, ethical and ecological aspects in the context of sustainable development and at the same time contribute to improving the quality of life of interest groups in difficult situations such as caring for a loved one. For this reason, the innovation of the mentioned project can represent a multifunctional significance of individual and social interests.
