Frequently Asked Questions
How do I become a paid caregiver?
Many in-home caregivers are unpaid, providing care for family members, partners, or friends. California’s In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program pays in-home caregivers to provide non-medical personal care to seniors and persons with disabilities. To become a paid IHSS provider, check out the information and resources on this California Department of Social Services page & this CDSS IHSS provider page.
