Adult Family Care
Adult Family Care provides state subsidies to help cover in-home care costs for West Virginia residents age 65 and older, or younger adults with disabilities, cared for by certified family caregivers in family home settings.
Questions that decide eligibility
GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:
- 01
Does the person receiving care live in West Virginia?
Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- 02
Is the person receiving care in the covered age range (18–null)?
- 03
Does the VA disability rating meet the program’s minimum (our record lists null%)?
- 04
Do the work hours meet the minimum (our record lists null hours)?
- 05
Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name.
Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
- 06
What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- 07
Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
