Understanding the Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program
The Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program, a collaborative effort between Restoration Path Home Care Services and the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS), aims to provide comprehensive support for individuals over 65 or those with disabilities. The program focuses on enabling individuals to live independently in their homes and communities rather than relying on institutional care.
The Benefits of Elderly and Disabled Waiver Programe
The program benefits participants in numerous ways, aiming to improve their overall quality of life. Some key benefits include:
Independence Promotion
The program supports individuals in achieving greater self-reliance and the ability to live more independently in their homes, maintaining a sense of autonomy.
Cost-Effective Care
Care in the comfort of one’s home is often more cost-effective than in institutional care settings. This program eases the financial burden on both the individual and their family.
Personalized Services
Based on individual needs and circumstances, a care plan is tailored to provide essential support services, including personal care, medication management, and skilled nursing.
Social and Community Integration
