Personal Care
Hygiene is essential to good health and well-being. It just feels better to be clean. When maintaining hygiene independently is difficult or even hazardous, an in-home caregiver can help.

FAQs
Questions about personal care? We have answers.
Most people we talk with assume they will have to pay out of pocket for in-home personal care services. They are pleasantly surprised when they discover they may qualify for a Medicaid HCBS waiver or another home-and-community-based program!
Private pay or long-term care insurance are other options. We offer competitive private pay rates for clients who do not have long-term care insurance and/or Medicaid to cover in-home care.
Medicare and private health insurance typically don’t cover stand-alone personal care but may cover it as part of a larger physician-directed home health plan. For example, if you or a loved one are recovering from an illness or injury, personal care may be covered alongside in-home therapy, skilled nursing, etc. We do not currently accept Medicare, but we do accept private health insurance for some covered services.
We know how confusing all this can be. We do it every day, and we’ll walk you through it. Don’t worry.
We are Medicaid-certified through the Kansas Department of Health and Human Services.
Our home care agency works with programs that are funded through the State of Kansas and the Sedgwick County Department of Aging, including:
- Medicaid Home and Community Based Services
- Frail Elderly Waiver (HCBS-FE)
- Physical Disability Waiver (HCBS-PD)

We also participate in programs through the Central Plains Area Agency on Aging Care Act (CPAA), Older Americans Act (OAA), and more.
