Taking care of a family member who needs it is an important task, and while many would devote themselves to their disabled or elderly loved ones without expecting anything in return, such circumstances may be a struggle from a financial standpoint, especially in a world dominated by rising costs of living and high inflation rates.

But families shouldn’t have to choose between caring for their loved ones or putting food on the table. That’s exactly why Home Nurse Inc. is accepting applications for Georgia’s Structured Family Caregiving (SFC) program. If you and your family member qualify, you’ll get paid for your caregiving services, meaning you are free to devote yourself to their care without worrying about any financial implications.

Financial Support for Families

The Structured Family Caregiving (SFC) program is designed to provide financial aid to designated family caregivers who do not have any other means of securing income while caring for the dependent at home.

If you perform tasks such as meal preparation, feeding assistance, bathing and dressing assistance, and mobility assistance, among other daily activities, you may qualify for a weekly tax-free stipend for your services, as long as you do not have employment outside the home, remote work, or a home-based or online business.

Eligibility Requirements

There are a few more requirements, though. Home Nurse Inc. says that to receive financial compensation from the SFC program, you and your family member must be at least 18 years of age and live in the same house, and you must be related to your family member biologically or through marriage as a child, grandchild, or son- or daughter-in-law; spouses and legal guardians will not qualify for compensation.

Additionally, the person receiving care must also be eligible for Georgia Medicaid and be a participant in the CCSP or SOURCE waiver program.

If you and your family member satisfy all aforementioned criteria, you’ll be approved for the SFC program. As such, you’ll be paid weekly for your caregiving services and have direct access to professional health coaching.

You’ll also be provided with a daily personalized care plan developed by Home Nurse Inc.’s experienced SFC clinical team based on your family member’s needs and lifestyle. It always helps to have input from home healthcare experts, right?

A Trusted Medicaid Provider for Decades

Home Nurse Inc. was founded by Gail Finley, RN and Mary Stapleton, RN in 1983 with the goal of providing high-quality healthcare to families regardless of economic status. The agency has since become one of the largest and most trusted Medicaid providers in the state of Georgia.

If you need these trusted services for your family, don’t hesitate to reach out – especially if you want to apply for the SFC program. Home Nurse Inc. is here to help you help your family live their best possible life.
