Questions families ask

What's the difference between 'home health care' and 'non-medical home care' in Wisconsin?

Home health care involves skilled, licensed clinical services (like nursing or physical therapy) typically ordered by a physician, often covered in limited circumstances by Medicare. Non-medical home care (companion care, personal care assistance) is unlicensed the way facilities are, and generally paid out of pocket or through Family Care/IRIS.

How are in-home caregivers screened and supervised in Wisconsin?

Because non-medical home-care agencies aren't licensed the way CBRFs or nursing homes are, screening and supervision practices vary by agency -- ask any agency directly about background-check procedures, caregiver training, and how a supervisor monitors care quality after placement, since there's no single state standard to check against.

Can a family hire an independent caregiver directly instead of going through an agency in Milwaukee?

Yes, some families do hire independent caregivers directly, sometimes through IRIS's self-directed model which specifically allows a participant to hire and direct their own workers, supported by an IRIS consultant agency and a fiscal employer agent that handles payroll and tax compliance.
