Get Paid to Care for a Loved One

Family Caregivers

Family Caregiver Support

We know that many families are already doing the hard work of helping a parent, adult child, relative, or loved one with everyday needs.

The agency also helps families understand the Michigan Home Help process, including how an eligible client may choose a qualified family member, friend, or other trusted caregiver to provide authorized care through the agency.

  • Initial screening and explanation of the Home Help pathway.

  • Guidance on required steps and documents.

  • Caregiver onboarding, CHAMPS/agency association support, payroll/employment administration, and EVV training once applicable.

  • Ongoing agency support after services begin.

How It Works

Simple Steps, Personal Support

Getting started with home assistance doesn't have to feel complicated. Next Step Home Assistance guides you and your family through each step, from your first conversation to beginning authorized care.

  1. Talk With Us

    Contact our team to discuss your situation, learn about Michigan Home Help, and understand the general steps involved in getting started.

  2. Complete the Requirements

    We help you understand the required Home Help application steps and coordinate the necessary documentation and medical information for the process.

  3. MDHHS Assessment

    MDHHS reviews the application, assesses the individual's needs, and determines eligibility and the services and hours that may be authorized.

  4. Begin Your Care

    Once authorization and required agency and caregiver enrollment steps are complete, care can begin under the approved arrangement.

Eligibility, covered services, and authorized hours are determined solely by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). Next Step Home Assistance LLC is an independent provider.
