This program provides services to people who need help with day-to-day activities to allow them be more independent in their own homes. A personal care assistant is trained to help with basic daily routines. A PCA may be able to help you if you have a physical, emotional, or mental disability, a chronic illness or an injury.
Some programs require a person be certified disabled; this disability status can be obtained through Social Security or the State Medical Review Team (SMRT)
