Are Consumer Directed Services or CDS home health care services new?

No, in fact, over 30,000 people are enrolled in CDS in the state of Missouri alone! And…Consumer Directed Services are offered in over 40 states.

With COVID-19, Consumer Directed Services grew 20% in 2020 alone. COVID-19 permanently changed the way health care services will be delivered in the future. More and more people, just like you became aware of how choosing your own caregiver is a game-changer for Home Health Services.

Choosing your own personal care giver for non-medical services under various Medicaid programs just makes sense.

Why wouldn’t you want someone you know, like and trust to provide your CDS services? Advantage Home Care is the number one care provider for CDS home care and other services (Private Duty Nursing, Non-Medical Personal Care, and Home Health Care). You deserve the best.

What are the Benefits of Consumer Directed Services?

FLEXIBILITY
The most significant benefit of Consumer Directed Services is the flexibility to receive the authorized care you need on your schedule. By hiring friends or family members to provide your services, you can ensure you receive care when it works for you and your family.
SOMEONE YOU KNOW, LOVE AND TRUST
It can be stressful to find a Personal Care Attendant that you trust and like. By hiring your friends or family members in the community, you know you are being cared for by someone you trust and they are getting paid to be there for you.
FEEL COMFORTABLE AND SAFE
The COVID-19 pandemic made it scary or uncomfortable for many patients to allow outside Personal Care Attendants come into their home to provide their authorized services. Hiring a family member or friend through Consumer Directed Services was the answer many people just like you were looking for. CDS home health services allowed them to feel comfortable selecting their home health aid to provide authorized services.
HELP THOSE YOU LOVE MAKE MONEY (NOW OFFERING DAILY PAY!)
When your agency selects a caregiver for you, matching schedules can be tough. Often times, you have to adapt the timing of your services to your caregivers availability. Consumer Directed Services provide the flexibility to schedule your services when you need them. By hiring your family or friend, provide them flexible scheduling and daily pay. With Advantage, you can help a family member looking for additional work.
REMAIN IN YOUR OWN HOME
Consumer Directed Services is often the answer to helping patients just like you receive care from home instead of receiving these services in a nursing home or other inpatient setting.
