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.
Several resources are available in Plano to help local seniors age in place with as much independence and comfort as possible. These local and federal programs assist with transportation, utility bill payments and home repairs, among other benefits. Contact the agencies on this table to learn more about the services they offer.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| North Central Texas Area Agency on Aging | (800) 272-3921 | The North Central Texas Area Agency on Aging helps seniors aged 60 and over find the transportation, nutrition support and caregiver assistance they need to remain independent at home. Services offered include home visits, case manager assistance and Meals On Wheels enrollment, which doubles as a daily check-in service for seniors at risk of becoming isolated. Referrals are also available for long-term care planning and legal help as well as insurance counseling and mental health support. |
| Texas Health and Human Services | (877) 543-7669 | The Texas Department of Health and Human Services provides direct financial assistance to seniors and other adults with pressing financial needs. Working through the Plano office, seniors can apply for supplemental nutrition assistance, housing assistance and cash aid. Medicaid applications are processed by the department and staff intake workers provide free case management services to locate and apply for benefits that seniors are eligible for. |
| Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs | (972) 941-7000 | Texas HUD offers seniors assistance with mobility-based home modifications and ADA accessibility upgrades. Licensed local contractors can be dispatched to consult about improving access and safety in privately owned homes for eligible seniors and work can be scheduled with pre-approval of a claim. Seniors who meet the program's income and asset eligibility standards can get work done at no cost or for a reduced fee schedule. |
| Plano’s CARE | (972) 941-7900 | Plano's CARE (Call Reassurance) helpline helps keep seniors in the area connected both to the community and to each other with phone check-in services and volunteer reassurance help. Volunteers offer a friendly voice, wellness checks and help to locate emergency resources if necessary. Seniors can call in as needed or regular contact by phone can be scheduled to help keep in touch. Automated calls are provided at no cost and the system can remotely contact relatives or friends if the senior needs help. |
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.

They could have a greater impact by being knowledgeable of my case and not asking the same questions over and over again. They could do better if everyone was on the same page.
