What does it mean to be a Caregiver in the CDS Program?
Caregivers in the CDS Program are typically family members, friends, or loved ones of the Consumer – the person needing care and support. They are chosen and hired by that person, and their tasks can include:
- Assisting with activities of daily living such as ambulation, bathing, dressing, and grooming
- Meal prep and help with feeding
- Helping with household chores and tasks
- Providing companionship and socialization
- Maintenance and help with equipment, aids, and prosthesis
CDS Caregivers work directly for the individual receiving care, rather than for a home care agency or other organization. Typically, CDS Consumers will hire a friend, family member or loved one, giving that person the opportunity to build an even closer, personal relationship and tailor a patient’s care to their specific needs and preferences. Additionally, the CDS Caregivers get paid for their time, which can be helpful if that individual is taking time away from their job, or changed their life circumstances to provide care.
