Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Aging in place may be your first choice, but this doesn’t mean it will be easy. If you need extra help around your home or want to apply for supportive services, such as Meals on Wheels, in-home care or accessible transportation, the following agencies can help.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Agency on Aging Area 4 | (916) 486-1876 | Your Area Agency on Aging is designed to be your first point of contact for general questions about senior services offered in Carmichael and the surrounding areas. It provides information and assistance to seniors who want to learn more about caregiver support programs, meal deliveries, home repairs and transportation. |
| ACC Senior Services | (916) 394-6399 | This local nonprofit operates several full-service residential care facilities and provides several supportive services to older adults who live in Carmichael and the neighboring communities. It offers accessible rides, a friendly visitor program and assistance for seniors who need help understanding their utility bills. |
| Meals on Wheels by AAC | (916) 444-9533 | Homebound seniors aged 60+ may qualify for low-cost meal deliveries through this program. You can get started by scheduling an in-home assessment. The program also offers pet food deliveries and meal enhancements. Seniors who aren’t homebound can pick up their meals at the Mission Oaks Community Center in Carmichael. |
| Sacramento County Assessor Homeowners' Exemption | (916) 875-0700 | This property tax exemption is available on your primary residence, regardless of your age. The county provides a $7,000 reduction on your property's assessed value that can save you about $75 a year. Applications are due in February. Once approved, your exemption will renew annually unless you move. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
