Description

Qualifying senior citizens are able to receive free in-home care through the Illinois Department on Aging's Community Care Program. This program is funded by the State of Illinois through a waiver of the Federal Medicaid program. This means that the In-Home Care Aide service helps seniors maintain their quality of life by continuing to live in their own homes. The CCP Family Care program allows for a family member or friend caregiver to receive training and compensation to care for their loved one. The Hellenic Foundation also provides private pay in-home senior care for those who do not qualify for the Community Care Program.
