We let you choose your caregiver...
How Does This Work?
Direct Personal Care works with the New York State Medicaid program that allows consumers to recruit, hire, and direct their own home care workers. One of the highlights of the program is that it allows consumers to hire family members and friends where they will be compensated to provide care for you.

Step 1: Get Assessed for Eligibility & Approval
A nurse will a come to your home for an assessment to determine if you are eligible for self directed services and how many weekly hours you can get.
Step 2: Choose a Caregiver
You choose a caregiver. This can be a son, daughter, grandchild, or friend. We help with all the requirements to get them started.


Step 3: Care Begins and They Get Paid
You get ongoing care from a caregiver that cares for you and loves you. They will have peace of mind because they’re getting paid for the care they provide.

Sulman Abid, MBA

“I started Direct Personal Care when I learned about a way to empower families needing more care for their loved ones.
We worked with the state to become licensed to provide help to those that need us the most. Those are the ones that have a disability or aging seniors needing assistance with their activities of daily living can now self-direct their care. They can appoint the caregiver of their choice.
We now serve many counties in the New York area to quickly on-board consumers and their caregivers. We’re giving them the control of the quality care they deserve.
When I know I can help, this is what makes me happy and give me fulfillment in life.”
