Personal Care Services provide non-medical assistance to individuals who need help with daily activities due to age, illness, or disability. In Texas, this service is commonly used by individuals who are eligible through Medicaid or other programs. The focus is on supporting routine tasks that help maintain basic health, hygiene, and safety at home.
How It Works:
Care is arranged based on assessed need and authorized service hours:
- An initial assessment determines the individual’s ability to perform daily activities independently
- A care plan outlines specific tasks such as bathing, grooming, dressing, meal preparation, and mobility support
- A caregiver or attendant is assigned to provide services according to the approved schedule
- Service hours are authorized by the payer and may vary based on level of need
- Supervisory visits or reviews help ensure services are being delivered as outlined
- Adjustments may be made if there are changes in the individual’s condition or living situation
What to Expect
Services begin after assessment and approval, followed by scheduling of regular visits. During care, assistance is provided based on the defined tasks and time allocations. Over time, reassessments may be required to confirm continued eligibility and adjust the level of support.
