Structured Family Care

WHAT IS STRUCTURED FAMILY CARE?

Structured Family Caregiving provides support, education, and oversight on behalf of waiver members(CLIENT) whose family caregiver lives in the home with the member. The service provides a community-based option of continuous care, support, and professional oversight by promoting a collaborative relationship between the waiver member(CLIENT), the primary caregiver, the professional Health Coach, and the member’s case manager.
