What is IHSS (In-Home Supportive Services)?
The In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program will help pay for services provided to you so that you can remain safely in your own home. To be eligible, you must be over 65 years of age, disabled, or blind. Disabled children are also potentially eligible for IHSS. IHSS is considered an alternative to out-of-home care, such as nursing homes or board and care facilities.
The types of services which can be authorized through IHSS include:
Accompaniment to medical appointments
Grocery shopping
Housecleaning
Laundry
Meal preparation
Personal care services (such as bowel and bladder care, bathing, grooming, and paramedical services)
