“Azara made it possible for our grandmother to stay in her home as long as possible — and live fully again. Their care gave her purpose, connection, and joy in her final years.”
— Kay Williams 💜

I can't say this enough: the hours you're allotted are based on YOUR assessment.
That's why clear, honest answers during the assessment are so important.
Here's what you need to know:
𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀—nothing is too small. If you need help with a task, tell the case manager or nurse assigned to your case.
The more honest and thorough you are, the better your care plan will reflect what you actually need.
Think about it: if you don't mention that you struggle with bathing safely or need help preparing meals, those needs won't be factored into your hours.

Your assessment determines your support. Make sure it's accurate.

If you've ever wondered:
→ What PCS actually is
→ How you qualify
→ How many hours you can get
→ What caregivers do under PCS

You're in the right place.

PCS stands for Personal Care Services—and it's one of the most common questions we get from Kansas families navigating HCBS (Home and Community-Based Services).

By the end of this video, you'll know exactly what PCS is, how it fits into Kansas Medicaid, and how it can make day-to-day life easier for you and the person you love.

This is part of our ongoing series breaking down HCBS in plain language—so you can make informed decisions about your family's care.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗖𝗦? 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀.
PCS (Personal Care Services) fits into something much larger called HCBS—Home and Community-Based Services.

HCBS is Kansas Medicaid's way of saying: You don't have to move into a nursing home to get help.

If you or your loved one meet the income and medical guidelines, you may qualify for an HCBS waiver. PCS is covered under both the Physical Disability waiver and the Frail and Elderly waiver.

So how do you know if you qualify?

First, there's an assessment. A state-approved nurse or case manager comes to your home and assesses what you need help with—bathing, moving safely, or any other personal tasks.

Important: Be honest during the assessment. Don't leave out any details because nothing is too small. Your hours are based on YOUR assessment.
Remember: When life changes (surgery, fall, new medication, moving), you can be reassessed. Your support needs may go up or down.

You don't have to figure this out alone. We're here to help you navigate your or your loved one's care.

"𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻."
Last week, I spoke with a daughter who just wanted to keep her mom safe. But the paperwork? It made her cry.

After we walked through the PCS process together and got a caregiver assigned, she called me back and said those words: "I finally feel like I can breathe again."
That's what we're here for.

Here's something important to know: When life changes, you can request a reassessment.
Surgery, a fall, new medication, moving to a smaller place, or moving in with family—these are all life-changing events that may require MORE support (or sometimes less).

Your PCS hours aren't set in stone. They can be adjusted based on what YOU need.
Don't struggle alone with the paperwork and the process. We're here to help you navigate it.
