Personal Care Services
Personal Care Services provide needed assistance to individuals who are unable to complete personal care tasks alone. Personal Care Services may prevent or delay premature or inappropriate institutionalization, making it possible for individuals to continue living in their own homes or to return to their homes.
Covered Services
Personal Care Services may include assistance with the following tasks:
- Personal hygiene
- Bathing
- Washing hair
- Dressing
- Grooming (i.e., combing hair and shaving)
- Eating
- Toilet Use
Service Providers
An individual who qualifies will receive Personal Care Services as approved in the individual's care plan. The Division of Long Term Services and Supports does not directly provide Homemaker Services, but contracts with local provider agencies to provide services.
