Myth vs. Fact: Understanding Paid Family Care

There are a lot of misconceptions about becoming a paid family caregiver — and we’re here to clear them up.

At White Oak Home Care, we help families navigate Medicaid Waiver and Structured Family Caregiving programs so loved ones can receive care safely at home from the people they trust most.

Here are the facts:

You don’t need to be a nurse to be a paid caregiver.

Many family members can qualify — not just spouses.

Professional medical training isn’t required; we provide the support you need.

Medicaid Waiver programs are designed to help people stay in their homes, not just in facilities.

With the right guidance, the approval process is simpler than you think.

If you’re caring for a loved one, you may already qualify to be paid for the care you provide.
We’re here to answer questions, guide you through the process, and support your family every step of the way.

🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans With Purpose and Pride 🇺🇸

This past Wednesday, White Oak Home Care had the privilege of participating in the Veterans Stand Down event. While several home care agencies were present, we are proud to share that White Oak Home Care was the only home care provider to step forward as an official event sponsor.

This distinction reflects our commitment to going beyond everyday services. Sponsoring this event was our way of showing up for the men and women who have shown up for our country.

We believe our veterans deserve meaningful support, dedicated resources, and a team that truly cares — and we are honored to stand behind them in every way we can. Their service inspires our mission, and we are grateful for every opportunity to give back.

Thank you to everyone who visited our table and to all the veterans who shared their stories with us. White Oak Home Care is here for you — today, tomorrow, and always.

❤️🤍💙

🌿 Weekend Tip: Fresh air lowers stress — even a short walk can boost mood, energy, and mental clarity.
Whether it's a porch sit, a slow stroll, or opening a window for sunlight, little moments outdoors make a big difference for seniors (and caregivers).

🌿 Did You Know? Support Programs Exist for Family Caregivers 🌿

Many families provide daily care for aging or disabled loved ones — helping with meals, transportation, medications, or companionship. What some don’t realize is that certain state and community programs offer resources and financial support for those providing in-home care.

Every program has its own eligibility requirements, and not all situations will qualify. The goal of these programs is to help families keep their loved ones safe and cared for at home.

If you’re interested in learning about what types of caregiver support may be available in your area, reach out to White Oak Home Care. We can share general information and help connect you with the right resources. 💚

Because caring for family is important — and support should be, too.
