What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Home Care Aide Services
Home Care Partners places certified home care aides in the homes of seniors and adults with disabilities to enable clients to maintain their independence at home. The aides provide an array of personal care and homemaking functions including assistance with bathing, personal hygiene, light housekeeping, dressing, feeding, laundry, shopping and errands, escort and companionship, and planning and preparation of nutritious meals. Specialized home care service is also provided to individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive impairments. Home Care Partners uses a team approach to provide services to its clients. A social work or nurse case manager develops a personalized plan of care specifying the specific assistance that the home care aide will provide on a scheduled basis. The schedulers coordinate logistics between client and aide. In turn, the aides are in regular contact with and are supported by schedulers and case managers. Through this approach, when aides report changes in conditions, other staff provide appropriate assistance, information and referral to help maintain the clients’ independence in their own homes.
DC Caregiver Institute and Caregiver Education
Home Care Partners operates the DC Caregiver Institute. This program provides support to families of DC seniors. Services include information and resources, a caregiver support group, and a small stipend for respite or caregiver supplies.
Montgomery County Light Care
The Light Care program provides home care aide services to very low-income seniors and adults with disabilities in Montgomery County, MD, who need a modest amount of assistance to remain safely in their own homes. Certified aides provide a weekly visit to assist the client with particular needs such as housekeeping, laundry, light personal care, grocery shopping, that the clients can no longer perform by themselves. Clients are ineligible for Medicare or Medicaid reimbursed home care or other subsidized services.
Training Institute
Home Care Partners operates its Training Institute to provide continuing education to its home care aide staff to ensure quality service provision; it also offers training to caregivers, families and others in the caring professions.
Safe at Home
In partnership with the DC Office on Aging, provides home modifications to reduce fall risk and barriers to mobility for seniors and adults with disabilities
