Not Happy with CDPAP Changes? Switch from CDPAP to PCA Services Today.
[Note: We are not a Home Health Care Agency. We are intermediaries dedicated to connecting you with the right provider.]
Find the Right PCA Services for Your Loved One
Navigating the recent changes in CDPAP (Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program) can be overwhelming. If you’re feeling frustrated, confused, or simply not getting the support you need, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to face this transition by yourself.
At HealthAide, we are not a home health care agency.
We are intermediaries who work directly with families like yours to match you with the right PCA (Personal Care Assistant) services — quickly, easily, and at no cost to you.
What is a PCA (Personal Care Assistant)?
A Personal Care Assistant (PCA) provides hands-on support with everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, mobility, meal preparation, and light housekeeping.
PCA services are ideal for individuals who need help managing daily activities but no longer qualify for or wish to stay in the CDPAP program.
Our team ensures you’re matched with a certified, compassionate PCA through a reputable agency — one that can provide consistent, quality care for your loved one.

Fast Connections
No long waiting lists or unanswered calls. We act fast to get you connected with care.
Who Can Become a PCA Caregiver?
Not everyone can provide PCA services. Here’s how it works:
- Immediate family members like a son, daughter, husband, wife, father, or mother cannot become certified to provide PCA care.
- Extended family members such as grandchildren and grandparents can get certified to provide care.
- Friends and neighbors are also eligible to become certified PCA caregivers.
In short, under PCA services, patients cannot hire their immediate family members
— such as a son, daughter, spouse, father, or mother — unlike under CDPAP.
Important: If no eligible family member, friend, or neighbor is available, we will also help the patient find a certified Home Health Aide (HHA) to ensure they still receive the care and support they need.
We Help Keep Care Personal
Along with finding a certified home health aide for your loved one, we also help eligible family members, friends, and neighbors become certified home health aides.
This allows families to:
- Continue receiving care from someone they know and trust.
- Avoid the discomfort of relying on unfamiliar caregivers.
- Make the transition from CDPAP to PCA smoother and more personal.
Our goal is to help families stay connected while ensuring loved ones receive the highest quality care possible.
