Personalized home care through the Medicare Waiver Program allows eligible individuals to receive non-medical support in their own homes while continuing to participate in everyday routines and community life. In Suwanee, Georgia, this service is commonly used by older adults and individuals with disabilities who require ongoing assistance with daily activities but prefer to remain in a familiar home environment rather than transition to institutional care. Home and community-based waiver programs are designed to provide practical assistance that promotes independence while addressing everyday care needs such as personal care, household tasks, mobility, and community participation. Depending on an individual’s approved services, support is delivered on a routine schedule and adapted to the person’s functional abilities and daily living goals.
How It Works:
Support available through the waiver program may include:
- Assistance with bathing, grooming, dressing, and personal hygiene.
- Meal preparation and light housekeeping to support daily routines.
- Medication reminders as part of non-medical home care.
- Companion care and supervision during daily activities.
- Transportation and assistance with approved community outings or appointments, when authorized.
- Support that encourages independent living skills and community participation
What to Expect
Services generally begin after an individual has been determined eligible for a home and community-based waiver program and authorized to receive specific supports. Care is provided according to the approved service plan, with caregivers assisting during scheduled visits in the home or community. As an individual’s condition, abilities, or authorized services change, the frequency and type of support may be reviewed and adjusted to continue meeting their daily needs while helping them remain safely at home.
