The Caregiver Support Program provides reimbursement to caregivers who provide services such as personal care, respite, medical supplies/nutritional supplements, adaptive devices, home modifications, school supplies and seasonal clothing. The Caregiver Support Program is based around those caring for a functionally dependent older adult, individuals with Alzheimer’s or other chronic dementia, or family members under the age of 18 or relative aged 18-59 with a non-dementia related disability. Caregivers and care receivers must meet the eligibility requirements set by the state of PA.

An individual receiving reimbursement under this model would be independently responsible for hiring and employing a worker to provide personal care assistance. The personal care worker can not be a spouse, power attorney, representative payee, guardian or a paid caregiver directing care. The personal care worker may be another family member or friend. All individuals receiving reimbursement under this program must meet eligibility requirements.
