With your help and generous care, your loved ones are able to stay at home. You probably don’t expect to be paid, but now you can…with a program that recognizes the value of what you do.

What is this program?
Adult Family Living pays for “personal care and supportive services that are furnished CHCPE and PCA participants who reside in a private home by a principal caregiver who lives in the home,” according to the Department of Social Services (DSS). Spouses cannot be caregivers under this program.

What type of care is covered?
There are four levels of service, depending on the care recipients’ need:

  • Level 1: Individuals who require cueing or supervision to perform Activities of Daily Living, and who may also require management of cognitive or behavioral challenges.
  • Level 2: Individuals who require hands-on assistance with two or more Activities of Daily Living on a daily basis.
  • Level 3: Individuals who require hands-on assistance to perform three or more Activities of Daily Living or two Activities of Daily Living and assistance for the management of co-occurring challenging behaviors or cognitive deficits.
  • Level 4: Individuals who require hands-on assistance to perform four or more Activities of Daily Living or three Activities of Daily Living and assistance for the management of challenging co-occurring behaviors or cognitive deficits.

The primary caregiver is responsible 24/7 for ensuring that the health and safety needs of the individual are met.
