Narrative

Designed for those who want to live in a family setting with an approved caregiver. Caregivers can be relatives, friends and non-related people with the exception of a spouse or a parent who is the guardian.  Caregivers are paid a tax-free daily stipend for the services they provide such as help with activities of daily living, personal care, meal preparation and transportation to appointments.  The “placement” is monitored regularly by an RN and a care manager who provide support and education to the caregiver and the participant.  The program is funded through MassHealth.
