We brought in a couple of aides for my mother, but I could tell she wasn’t happy. Now I get to care for Mom daily — and she’s smiling and laughing. I feel really good, knowing she’s getting stronger each day.
I was in between jobs, looking for a new one. I thought: ‘What’s going to happen to my mom while I️’m at work all day?' When I told her I’d be caring for her everyday, her face lit up. It was a thrilling moment for me.

I didn’t want an aide; I don’t get along well with strangers. My daughter knows me and loves me; she looks right past my attitude. With her as my aide, I think I’m gonna hit 90. You watch. I’m gonna be the first one in my family to make 90.
I have multiple sclerosis. After my second hospitalization, I realized I needed help. To have my best friend be here for me is a blessing. My caseworker, Ashley, is very helpful — I feel comfortable calling anytime. And having someone I trust work for me keeps my mind at ease.
Getting paid to care for a loved one shouldn’t be complicated.
After your doctor completes a medical form, a nurse will contact you and determine how many hours of care you can get each week.
You choose your caregiver: your daughter, son, relative, or friend. We help you enroll in the program.
You get ongoing care from a person who loves you. They get peace of mind — because they’re getting paid for the care they give.
I like that I have someone I know helping me — not a stranger, who would have to get to know my likes and dislikes. The staff is courteous and friendly, and they always answer my questions.
I’m an entrepreneur. Being there for my mom did not allow me to generate the income I needed, so getting financial assistance while taking care of her is a win-win.
