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.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Attleboro:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low Income Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) | (617) 573-1100 | 100 Cambridge St., Suite 300, Boston, MA 02114 | Seniors can get their homes ready for the Massachusetts winter in Attleboro with free home inspections and assistance weatherizing their houses from the Low Income Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP). WAP provides recommendations and no-cost work from licensed local contractors to improve and upgrade a home’s energy efficiency. Covered services include new insulation, windows and doors.

| Home Modification Loan Program (HMLP) | (617) 204-3600 | 600 Washington St., Boston, MA 02111 | Attleboro seniors can get needed home improvements made at significant discounts through the Home Modification Loan Program (HMLP). HMLP offers 0% interest home improvement loans through a network of authorized local lenders. Seniors in the program must meet income and asset limitations, as well as reside in the state and be unable to obtain a traditional home improvement loan or home equity line of credit to make the repairs. Repair work must be authorized by the program, and services include any needed home upgrade for improved safety and accessibility. |

Eligible seniors must meet residency, income and asset limitations to enroll in the program. |
| Family Caregiver Support Program | (617) 727-7750 | One Ashburton Pl., Floor 5, Boston, MA 02108 | Seniors aged 55 and over in Attleboro can get in-home caregiver assistance through the Family Caregiver Support Program. This program provides recipient-directed funds to hire a caregiver to assist with daily activities and some chores outside of the home. The program also helps caregivers get training and respite care. Seniors raising grandchildren can also get assistance finding education, personal care and benefits they may be eligible for from a program worker. |
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.
