Tell us a little bit about yourself. After just a few questions, we can help you with the New York State qualifications for CDPAP.
In-Home Assessment
A nurse will come to your home to do an assessment. From here, we will figure out how many hours of care you qualify for per week. Hours range from just a couple hours a week to 24/7 care.
Select Your Caregivers
You can choose as many caregivers as you’d like. Many choose a family member like a son, daughter, nephew, grandchild, etc. Caregivers do not need any special license or certification.
Enrolled & Care Begins
Once your caregivers have completed all paperwork and health assessments, they can begin clocking in. You create the schedule for your caregivers and train them on how you’d like to be cared for. America Homecare pays your caregivers on your behalf.
