"I was alone in providing care for my parents...you have been so wonderful to me and my aging parents to provide the support and services we needed. Without your help I could not have done it". Maria B.
We provide case management services and arrange in-home services to assist clients with daily living needs and teach them how to lead healthier and more active lives using powerful approaches to prevent decline, avoid unnecessary hospitalizations ornursing home placement and improve overall health.
The MSSP/"Life is Better at Home" program serves medically isolated, frail and underinsured individuals who are at-risk of family breakdown, premature institutionalization or loss of independence. Our program targets adults 65 years of age or older in Southern California, including low-income, diverse urban areas, as well as isolated and rural segments of Los Angeles County.
65 years of age or older MSSP collaborates with caregivers and clients to develop comprehensive care plans, obtain critical resources and services and ensure participation in essential programs that will ultimately assist the client in his or her daily living, provide a higher quality of life and ensure access to care.
MSSP care managers are nurses and social workers who visit the home and conduct a health and psychosocial assessment. Together they evaluate individual needs to determine the resources that would benefit the client and/or caregiver and foster self-sufficiency.
Some of the services that MSSP can arrange for our clients:
If you or a loved one is a MediCal recipient and physical or cognitive disabilities are increasing the risk for nursing home placement, MSSP can arrange or pay for services to ensure a safe and comfortable life at home. The focus of our “Life is Better at Home/MSSP program” is the provision of services and referrals to delay or prevent premature placement.
