How it works

Four steps from your first call to consistent, supported care at home.

  1. 1. Tell us your situation

    Call, send the form, or take our 2-minute eligibility quiz. Our Intake representative learns who needs care, your insurance, languages, and timing.

  2. 2. Intake support

    Already with another agency? We handle the vendor change without losing hours. New to home care? We walk you through Medicaid eligibility, Pooled Trust applications, state appointments, and plan selection.

  3. 3. Free home assessment

    A Registered Nurse visits to build a care plan tailored to the client and home — and to confirm the hours you qualify for.

  4. 4. Caregiver match & 24/7 support

    We assign a caregiver matched by language, schedule, and care plan. A supervisor is on call 24/7 to fill gaps, reschedule, or escalate.

Common questions

Who is eligible for home care?

Most New York adults with Medicaid, Medicare, certain commercial plans, or self-pay options qualify. We'll help check your eligibility on the call — bring your insurance card and any care orders from your doctor.

How quickly can care start?

Most clients are matched with a caregiver within a week of their first call. Urgent cases (post-hospital discharge, family emergencies) can often be handled faster.

Will my caregiver speak my language?

We match by language and background whenever possible. Our team includes caregivers fluent in English, Spanish, Russian, Mandarin, Arabic, Haitian Creole, Yiddish, Bengali, and several others.

What if I'm not happy with my caregiver?

Tell us. Replacements are part of the service — there's a live supervisor on call 24/7, and we'll arrange a new match without disruption to scheduled hours.

Does Medicaid pay for this?

Yes, in most cases. Medicaid Managed Long-Term Care (MLTC) plans cover home health aide and personal care services, and we work directly with your plan on authorization. If you have straight (fee-for-service) Medicaid instead of an MLTC plan, we can accept it when you're enrolled in the NHTD or TBI waiver program or with OPWDD — our intake team will confirm which path applies to you.
