Are you an aging individual or an individual living with a disability that makes it difficult for you to manage your household alone? If you’ve been considering home health care but have been reluctant to invite a stranger into your home, reach out to CrossLove CDS, LLC in Clayton, MO, to learn more about consumer-directed services. If you qualify, CDS allows you to choose a close friend, family member, or trusted neighbor to employ as your home health aide. Your chosen aide will be compensated through Medicaid for the care they provide you. 

After you have selected the friend or family member you wish to care for you, CrossLove CDS will provide the necessary training they need to become a capable and qualified home health aide. Your caregiver will help you maintain your home by doing dishes and laundry, as well as cleaning and preparing meals. They will also help you manage medications, perform personal grooming tasks, and provide transportation assistance. 

A huge benefit of consumer-directed services is that you already know and trust your home health aide, which makes them better equipped to provide the companion care you deserve. Additionally, you get to stay in the comfort and familiarity of your own home, while receiving the assistance you need to live safely and independently.
