Personal Care Services

Personal Care Services under North Carolina State Medicaid Plan differs in service definition and provider type from the services offered under the waiver. Personal Care Services under the waiver include support, supervision and engaging participation with eating, bathing, dressing, personal hygiene and other activities of daily living. Support and engaging the participant describes the flexibility of activities that may encourage the participant to maintain skills gained during habilitation while also providing supervision for independent activities. This service may include preparation of meals, but does not include the cost of the meals themselves.
