Many resources and services are available to assist older people and people with disabilities with help in the home. Some are publicly-financed while others are private. With the exception of services administered by Senior Connections, the public programs Medicaid and Oregon Project Independence are restricted to people who meet service and financial eligibility requirements. Services from these public programs are available to some eligible individuals without cost, while others may be required to pay toward the cost of services received. Other eligible individuals are required to pay toward the cost of services received. Your case manager will discuss any potential costs you may have at your intake appointment.
