Home Care

Individuals who want to remain in their own home but need assistance with activities of daily living may find that our Home Care Programs meet their needs. The Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs is the primary funding source for these programs. Co-payments for services are based on a sliding fee scale.

Home Care Services
A comprehensive in-home assessment is conducted by a case manager who, in conjunction with a nurse, determines program eligibility. The case, client, and family caregivers develop a care plan which is reassessed on a regular basis. Services are delivered through Minuteman's extensive network of subcontracted provider agencies.
