Navigating Services and Supports

The home is the natural site for caregiving. Nursing or respite services are frequently provided in the home.

Nursing and repsite serves are limited due to affordability and accessibility. Their is simply no funding for families.

Even if their is payment, adequately trained staff is in short supply.

Insurance often creates barriers for families with children with disabilities. Prior approvals, waiting periods, require the full attention of the family caregiver to navigate the system. Let alone successfully obtaining the services for their children.
