"Mom is getting stronger, and it feels so good”
We brought in a couple of aides for my mother, but I could tell she wasn’t happy. Now I get to care for Mom daily — and she’s smiling and laughing. I feel really good, knowing she’s getting stronger each day.
☆☆☆☆☆
“Best program ever”
I’ve had aides in the past, but it always ended badly. This is one of the best programs ever. I’m so happy that my niece is helping me.
☆☆☆☆☆
"I’m gonna make 90"
I didn’t want an aide; I don’t get along well with strangers. My daughter knows me and loves me; she looks right past my attitude. With her as my aide, I think I’m gonna hit 90. You watch. I’m gonna be the first one in my family to make 90.

“A blessing”
I have multiple sclerosis. After my second hospitalization, I realized I needed help. To have my best friend be here for me is a blessing. My caseworker, Ashley, is very helpful — I feel comfortable calling anytime. And having someone I trust work for me keeps my mind at ease.

Frequently Asked Questions
Caring for a loved one in Michigan? FreedomCare helps you understand your options — and how to get paid for the care you provide!
Who can qualify for paid family caregiving in Michigan?
To qualify, you need to be a Michigan resident, have Medicaid, and require help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or mobility. You must also be at least 18 years old and able to direct your own care—or have someone you trust who can do this for you.
Does Medicare qualify me for caregiver programs in Michigan?
No. Due to state regulations, Medicare alone does not make you eligible for family caregiver pay programs in Michigan. You must have Medicaid to qualify.
Who can be a paid family caregiver in Michigan?
A caregiver must be at least 18 years old, eligible to work in the United States, and not excluded from the Medicaid program. Family members, including adult children or siblings, often qualify as long as they meet these basic requirements.
What is the Michigan Home Help Program?
The Michigan Home Help Program, managed by the Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), helps people stay independent in their own homes instead of moving to a nursing facility. Through this program, family members, friends, or other trusted caregivers can be paid to provide care, easing financial stress while ensuring loved ones get safe, consistent support.
Who is eligible for the Michigan Home Help Program?
To qualify, the person receiving care must live in Michigan, be eligible for Medicaid, and need help with daily activities because of age, disability, or a medical condition. They’ll also need to complete an in-home needs assessment with an MDHHS specialist and have a physician’s statement confirming the medical necessity of care.
Is FreedomCare available in Michigan?
Yes. FreedomCare is available in Michigan to help families access programs like the Home Help Program so caregivers can be paid for the care they already provide. We guide you through eligibility, paperwork, and enrollment so you and your loved one get the support you deserve without the confusion.
How much do family caregivers get paid in Michigan?
Caregiver pay rates in Michigan vary based on location and the number of hours approved by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). Caregivers are paid hourly, with hours determined during the in-home needs assessment. While it may not replace a full-time income, the pay can make it easier for families to care for loved ones without as much financial strain.
