What Are In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS), and Who Qualifies for Them?
In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) is a state-funded program designed to help seniors, disabled adults, and individuals with chronic health conditions live safely and independently in their own homes. Instead of moving to a nursing facility, qualified individuals can receive assistance with daily living from trained caregivers. All Seniors Foundation proudly offers IHSS services to eligible seniors in the community, ensuring compassionate support tailored to individual needs.
What Does IHSS Cover?
- Personal care tasks such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and toileting
- Housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and grocery shopping
- Medication reminders and monitoring
- Mobility assistance and transportation to medical appointments
- Protective supervision for those with cognitive impairments
Who Qualifies for IHSS?
- California residents who are 65 or older, blind, or disabled
- Individuals must be eligible for Medi-Cal (California’s Medicaid program) or meet certain financial criteria
- A medical professional must confirm that IHSS support is necessary for the applicant to safely remain at home
