Help with cleaning and household tasks so your home stays safe, clean, and comfortable.
What are homemaking services?
Homemaker services help people manage general cleaning and household activities when they can’t do them on their own, or when the person who usually helps them is unable to or is temporarily away. While in the home, our staff also keep an eye on the person’s well-being and safety.
How our staff can help
- Cleaning: light housekeeping such as dusting, vacuuming, kitchens, and bathrooms
- Laundry: washing, drying, folding, and changing bed linens
- Home management: meal preparation, shopping for food and household supplies, and arranging transportation
- Keeping things running: simple household tasks that help the home stay safe and organized
The exact tasks depend on the type of homemaker service in your support plan.
Who it’s for
- People on the CADI Waiver or Elderly Waiver, including HealthPartners and UCare members
- Who need help with cleaning and household tasks, or whose regular caregiver can’t do them or is temporarily away
Good to know: Caregiver rules depend on your waiver. On the Elderly Waiver, the primary caregiver doesn’t need to live with you. On the CADI Waiver, the primary caregiver must live at the same address and own or lease the home. Your case manager can explain what applies to you.
