Many families are unaware that Medicaid may help cover certain home care services that allow individuals to remain safely and comfortably in their own homes.
For seniors, individuals with disabilities, and those managing long-term health conditions, home-based care can provide valuable support while promoting independence and quality of life.
At TruEssence Of Healthcare NM LLC, we help families understand available programs and navigate the process of accessing care and support services throughout New Mexico.
What Is Medicaid Home Care?
Medicaid Home Care programs are designed to help eligible individuals receive assistance while remaining in their homes rather than moving into a nursing facility or assisted living environment.
These services are intended to support daily living activities, improve safety, and help individuals maintain independence.
Depending on eligibility and program requirements, services may include:
- Personal Care Services (PCS)
- Community Health Worker (CHW) support
- Assistance with daily activities
- Care coordination
- Health education
- Community resource navigation

Personalized Support
Services can be customized to meet each person’s unique circumstances and goals.
Who May Qualify?
Eligibility requirements vary depending on individual circumstances and available Medicaid programs.
Factors that may affect eligibility include:
- Age

Because requirements can change, it is important to speak with qualified professionals who can help determine available options.
