A Client-Employed Provider is a person who works in the home of a client. Clients can select and hire their own providers. They may choose a neighbor, friend or relative to provide care. The case manager may also have a list of local providers.
Clients hire a CEP to do supportive services.
They may ask the CEP to help with bathing, personal hygiene tasks, meal preparation, housekeeping, assistance with medications or transportation. Call or visit your local SDSD or AAA office. Fill out an application. Sign a release for a criminal record check. List references who can be contacted.
