CARE GIVING
Every single day families are struggling to cope with today’s challenges. Many of them are raising children, working demanding jobs and long hours and at the same time trying to care for a senior family member. With advances in medicine and technology, along with healthier lifestyles help seniors live longer and continue to lead more productive lives on their own.
On the other hand, more and more children need to help care for their parents, especially if they have children to care for themselves. Furthermore, these families eventually run out of hours in the day and the stress becomes too great so that the balance is broken. Hence, that is where we come in!
Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP)
This Medicaid program provides services to chronically ill or physically disabled individuals who have a medical need for help with activities of daily living (ADLs) or skilled nursing services. Services can include any of the services provided by a personal care aide (home attendant), home health aide, or nurse. Recipients have flexibility and freedom in choosing their caregivers.
The consumer or the person acting on the consumer’s behalf (such as the parent of a disabled or chronically ill child) assumes full responsibility for hiring, training, supervising, and – if need be – terminating the employment of persons providing the services. Before a person can receive services, his or her doctor must send a completed Physician’s Order for Services to the local social services district, which then completes a social and nursing assessment. A nurse assessor then determines whether the recipient can appropriately participate in CDPAP, and recommends the amount, frequency and duration of services.
