Frequently Asked Questions: HCBS Waiver Support Services

Yes. While Respite care is often provided in the home to give primary caregivers a break from daily stressors, it can also take place in various community settings. This allows the individual to enjoy activities in places like local parks or community centers, ensuring they remain socially active and engaged while their caregiver rests or attends to other responsibilities.

While personal hygiene—such as showering, grooming, and brushing teeth—is a core part of Personal Care, the service is broader than just hygiene. It includes assistance with various activities of daily living (ADLs), such as meal preparation and exercise routines. These services are provided within the home setting to ensure the client can live safely and healthily in their own environment.

All care providers, whether they are focused on Respite, Homemaker, Mentorship, or Personal Care, must be at least 18 years of age.
