CONSUMER DIRECTED SERVICES
Consumer Directed Services (CDS) is a Medicaid based program that provides care to participants in their home. Although similar in nature to in-home care, participants must be able to direct the care planning process and hire a caregiver. Participants have the flexibility and freedom in choosing their caregiver. A friend or family member may be hired as a caregiver, with the exception of a spouse or anyone under the age of 18. Bilingual In-Home Assistant Services will be there every step of the way, from assistance in the selection, to the management of a caregiver. We will train you and the caregiver on your responsibilities as well as our responsibilities to you. To make a referral into the program, one may reach out to us, or contact Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services directly
