Instructions for use

• CDPAP, which stands for Consumer Directed
  Personal Assistance Program, is a statewide
  program that serves seniors and their families
  across New York state. CDPAP offers a level of
  reassurance in the realm of senior care that many
  other programs dont, thanks to its primary
  selling point- friends and family members can
  become designated caregivers through the program.
  There is no more fear or uncertainty from leaving
  loved ones in the care of a total stranger.

• 2020 and 2021 have been very stressful for
  members of more medically vulnerable populations,
  especially senior citizens. Now that the new year
  is almost here seniors and their families are
  looking for reassuring, care-oriented
  alternatives which prioritize reliability and
  comfort. Fortunately, there is a program in place
  to ensure that they can get access to such care.

• Flexibility and Control

Through the CDPAP, consumers (or the consumers
advocate) have much more control over what their
care plan is going to look like. It puts more
responsibility on the consumer such as
recruiting, interviewing, training, hiring, and
dismissing senior care providers. But those
responsibilities are also what gives them more
power over their situation, rather than letting
it all be dictated by a senior care agency or
facility. Consumers even have the ability to hire
multiple caregivers in order to ensure that their
needs are being met.

Trust and Comfort

• Having a new person come into your life and
  suddenly take charge of your care plan can be
  disruptive, invasive, and potentially upsetting
  for some. If you want to ring in the new year
  with a feeling of stability and normalcy then a
  personal assistant through CDPAP is exactly what
  you need. You can choose someone you already
  know, so nothing feels out of place and there is
  no awkward adjustment period. After all,
  providing or receiving care can also cause
  feelings of embarrassment or anxiety, and seniors
  are less likely to experience these emotions if
  the person helping them is a trusted friend or
  family member. Aides who are unfamiliar with the
  people they care for also need to take time to
  learn things like the layout of the home, and
  their charges routines and preferences

• A personalized caregiver through CDPAP, however,
  already knows all of the ins and outs from what
  time they take medication to their favorite TV
  shows. There might also be linguistic, cultural,
  or religious differences that lead to confusion
  and friction, which CDPAP can make easier by
  ensuring that seniors receive care from someone
  with a similar background.

6
Quality of Care

• Senior care providers who are selected through
  CDPAP are not required to undergo any formalized
  training. While this may sound like a bad thing
  at first, it can have its benefits. Training can
  be costly and time-consuming, and if youre
  caring for a family member whose needs youre
  already familiar with then it might be wholly
  unnecessary as well. These programs may also
  require people to be re-certified after a certain
  number of years or their licensure may expire.
  While there are nor requirements, or formalized
  training, the options do still exist. Family
  Always First Home Care is here to help you
  navigate the different ways in which your
  personal assistant(s) can receive said training
  and support.

7
Fewer Restrictions
Just as senior care assistants dont need to
undergo formalized training, they are also able
to do more for the people that theyre
responsible for helping. Traditional at-home care
providers are limited in the ways that they can
aid people medically, but senior care assistants
working through CDPAP dont have the same
limitations. This means that assistants can
administer specialized medical services such as
treating a wound, providing insulin shots, and
suctioning tracheostomies.

• Taking time to look after someone is a labor of
  love, and unfortunately not everyone is properly
  compensated for the time that they put in when
  looking after someone else. Fortunately, CDPAP
  removes that worry, so people dont have to feel
  caught between looking after the their loved
  ones, or picking up an extra shift at work.
