The Medicaid Waiver provides an alternative to nursing home care. The program includes services that allow a person to continue living in his or her home. Nurses and social workers coordinate with participants and their caregivers to develop care plans that meet their individual needs.
Public funding means that the program is paid for, in part or in whole, by the government.
Some publicly-funded programs have eligibility requirements and provide services at low cost or no cost to people who qualify. For more information, please see the Sources of Funding section of this web site. We hope that you find what you're looking for.
