The In-Home Supportive Services Program will help pay for services provided to you so that you can remain safely in your own home. To be eligible, you must be over 65 years of age, or disabled, or blind. Disabled children are also eligible for IHSS. IHSS is considered an alternative to out-of-home care, such as nursing homes or board and care facilities. The types of services which can be authorized through IHSS are housecleaning, meal preparation, laundry, grocery shopping, personal care services (such as bowel and bladder care, bathing, grooming and paramedical services), accompaniment to medical appointments, and protective supervision for the mentally impaired. Social Workers authorize over 15,000 hours of supportive services per month to enable elderly and disabled Plumas County citizens to remain in their homes. To apply for IHSS, please contact the Plumas County Department of Social Services at 530-283-6350.
