The Medwaiver Program Through the APD

Enjoy the benefits of being a grantee of the APD’s support programs.

Regulated by Chapter 20, Chapter 393, and Chapter 916 of Florida’s statutes, the Agency for Persons with Disability (APD) aims to uplift Floridians with disabilities by connecting them with the best support resources in their respective communities. Compassionated Care is one of the trusted home health care providers that the APD affiliates with. Through the Medwaiver Program, we support many APD beneficiaries by becoming their bridge to access practical and professional health care services. Our collaboration with the APD will guarantee a stress-free experience of receiving care and support in the form of:

Skilled Nursing Services (RN, LPN)
Experience relief from worrying about rehospitalization risks with our skilled nursing services. With the care of our Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), you will receive expert medical care and supervision for an extended period.
Residential Nursing (RN, LPN)
Our residential nursing service is the ideal option for you for patients who require round-the-clock medical attention to optimize their safety. Relish in the benefits of 24-hour care and supervision our nurses provide in a residential care facility.
Private Care (RN, LPN)
A private nurse is essential in some cases of caring for patients with complex and chronic medical conditions. We help assign the most compatible nurse to a patient who seeks one-on-one care in a long-term situation.
Respiratory Care
Managing breathing struggles and respiratory illnesses lies in the expertise of our professionals. Whether your condition is acute or chronic, we readily provide support in monitoring or stabilizing your health status. We also teach patients and their families to utilize respiratory equipment properly.
Behavior Assistant Services
With the nurturing care of our behavior experts, patients can steadily channel a less extreme expression of their negative emotions. Seeking this service will allow our professionals to introduce eye-opening techniques vital for behavior management.
Personal Support Services
Lessen any factors that threaten your autonomy by receiving our personal support services. We deliver an array of assistance from hygiene maintenance to light housekeeping to sustain your favorable living condition. Assistance in regaining essential skills for performing daily tasks is also a part of this service.
Companion Care (Life Skills)
Avoid bottling-up feelings of isolation by spending quality time with our companions. We’ll help reinvigorate your everyday life by helping you regain your interest in particular hobbies and social interactions. Our companions can also provide light counseling and advice.
Respite Care (Under 21)
Our caregivers can provide temporary care and supervision for people under 21 years, especially whenever their primary caregiver is unavailable. This service ensures that the family caregiver can experience a worry-less breather knowing that their loved one is in the care of a professional.

All the care plans we create are never complete without incorporating our patient’s unique needs and situations. To have us begin developing your care plan, schedule your free in-home assessment with our staff today.
