The NHTD waiver is a New York State Medicaid program. It gives eligible seniors and people with physical disabilities the support they need to stay in their own homes and communities rather than move into a nursing facility. Care is built around a personal service plan, so the support fits the individual, not a one-size list.
Our role is to deliver the home care pieces of your approved plan with skill and heart. For example, we can provide:
Help with bathing, dressing, grooming, meals, mobility, and daily routines at home.
Registered and licensed practical nurses for health monitoring and care your doctor orders.
Help that keeps you connected to your home, family, and neighborhood.
Caregivers who speak English, Spanish, French, Haitian Creole, and Arabic.
The NHTD waiver generally serves people on Medicaid who need a nursing-home level of care but want to live at home, including many seniors and adults with physical disabilities. New York State Medicaid and the Regional Resource Development Center decide eligibility, not our agency. We can walk you through how the program works and help you understand the steps.
Both programs help people live at home with support. The NHTD waiver serves a broad group of seniors and adults with physical disabilities. The TBI waiver is for adults living with a traumatic brain injury. If you are not sure which fits, call us and we will help you understand the difference.
NHTD waiver services are funded through New York State Medicaid for participants who qualify. Your plan and the state decide eligibility, and our intake team will help you check your coverage and understand your options by phone. See the plans on our insurance accepted page.
