Questions that decide eligibility

GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:

  1. 01

    Does the person receiving care live in Maine?

    Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.

How to apply

  1. 01

    An evaluation team, including the applicant/consumer and at least one registered nurse or registered occupational therapist, determines eligibility for services under the program and the applicant/consumer's capability to hire and direct a personal care assistant.
