Care in Somerville

Check the Program First, Then Plan the Week

Some state programs, often Medicaid waivers, fund care directed by the person or led by a family member. Each program sets its own eligibility, services, and caregiver rules. Everyday unpaid help from family is not the same as a funded program.

Tell us about the care you need in Somerville and how you plan to pay. Home Care Hound will review your request for available options and let you know if there isn't an immediate match.

Questions

Common Questions in Somerville

Can a family member be my caregiver?

A family member may be able to help, depending on the program's rules. The program and any agency involved will confirm who can be a caregiver and whether payment is available.

Will I need to pay for care?

Any costs depend on your eligibility and the services a program approves. Ask before care begins.

What kind of help can I get at home?

Support may include personal care, help moving around, meals, housekeeping, and transportation. These services are non-medical. Ask the agency which tasks can be included in your care plan.
