Paid sick leave for caregivers is expected to pass this session, but current reimbursement rates do not include funding to cover this new mandate. This action item asks Senator Mike Jones and Delegate Schmidt—both newly elected and supportive of personal care providers—to sponsor a one-time reimbursement rate increase to help providers comply without disrupting services. They are in a unique position because their recent election allows them to submit bills/budget amendments after the standard deadline.

Please take a few minutes to send this message and personalize it as you see fit. Direct outreach from providers is especially important at this stage.

Winter Support Starts at Home!

As cold weather sets in, seniors often face increased risks of falls, feelings of isolation, and heightened health concerns. During these challenging winter months, home care can be a lifeline, offering the extra support needed to navigate daily tasks that may become more difficult. Home care can help.

Our partner, Veterans Care Coordination®, can assist aging wartime Veterans and their surviving spouses in exploring resources for the home care they need.

If you need home care support and your loved one is a Veteran or surviving spouse, they may be eligible for a benefit that may help pay for home care assistance. Call us today to find out more.
