Community HealthChoices Waiver Personal Assistant Services

Are you 21 or older with a physical disability, eligible for Medicaid or Medicare, and looking for an alternative to nursing home care? If so, the Community HealthChoices (CHC) Waiver program could be your ticket to enhanced independence and a higher quality of life. At DON Services, we’re here to simplify the process, guiding you every step of the way through enrollment, so you don’t have to navigate it alone.
