Any individual with a physical disability or chronic illness that requires them to need home care services is eligible for CDPAP — regardless of their age. Under the program, you can have a family member or a friend be your caregiver. CDPAP is a Medicaid program. If you or your family member doesn't have Medicaid, we can help you get onboarded.

Q. What Is My Caregiver's Scope of Practice?
Your caregiver will be in charge of improving your quality of life by assisting you in your activities of daily living, such as feeding, bathing, toileting, dressing and grooming. Your chosen care provider can also help with house cleaning and transportation for your medical appointments.
CDPAP guidelines also authorize your caregiver to assist with medical needs. This may include wound dressing, medicine administration, giving injections, tube feeding and tracheostomy care. -

CDPAP patients are free to choose any individual aged 18 and above as their primary caregiver, provided that the individual can legally work in the U.S. and is not the patient's legal spouse. Patients under 18 also can't choose their parents as the caregiver. You can contact us for more information on the CDPAP guidelines.
