At Family Solutions Home Care, we believe that independence and self-confidence come from having the right support in place. Our Participant Assistance and Care (PAC) Services provide one-on-one assistance to help individuals develop, maintain, and enhance daily living skills at home and in the community.
With the support of our Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) or a PAC Preferred Caregiver, individuals receive the guidance they need to navigate daily tasks, participate in their communities, and live with greater independence.
PAC Services focus on building independence by assisting with:
✅ Daily Living Skills – Personal hygiene, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and organizing daily routines.
✅ Community Engagement – Assistance with social activities, public spaces, and using transportation services.
✅ Building Independence – Support with budgeting, shopping, and managing personal responsibilities.
✅ Health & Safety Support – Ensuring individuals feel safe, comfortable, and confident in their environments.
PAC Services are flexible and tailored to each individual’s specific needs, promoting growth, independence, and personal fulfillment. Rather than doing things for individuals, PAC Services empower them to do more for themselves, offering support where it’s needed most.
Every individual has different abilities, goals, and preferences, so PAC Services are never one-size-fits-all. At Family Solutions Home Care, we take a personalized approach to caregiving by offering:
✔️ Customized Care Plans – Each participant receives a support plan based on their unique goals and needs.
✔️ Flexible Scheduling – Services are provided at times that best suit the individual and their routine.
✔️ Ongoing Monitoring – We continually assess progress and adjust services to ensure the best outcomes.
The goal is to empower individuals to live as independently as possible while having reliable and compassionate support available when needed.
Participant Assistance and Care (PAC) services can be provided by trained Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) or by a trusted individual chosen by the participant. This flexibility allows individuals to receive personalized, high-quality care in the way that works best for them.
Some individuals feel more comfortable receiving support from a familiar and trusted person rather than an assigned caregiver. Our Preferred Caregiver Program allows a family member, close friend, or trusted individual to provide PAC services, ensuring care is delivered in a way that feels natural, secure, and personal.
✅ Parents – May serve as PAC caregivers if their child is over 18.
✅ Relatives & In-Laws – Siblings, grandparents, and in-laws can be caregivers for individuals of any age.
✅ Family Friends – Close, trusted individuals can provide PAC services for participants of any age.
✔️ Familiarity & Comfort – Care from someone who understands the individual's personality, preferences, and routines.
✔️ Stronger Emotional Support – A trusted caregiver can provide reassurance and stability.
✔️ Personalized Assistance – Care is tailored to the individual’s specific needs and goals.
At Family Solutions Home Care, we value the importance of relationships in caregiving. The PAC Preferred Caregiver Program ensures individuals receive support from someone they trust, making the care experience more meaningful and effective.
✔️ Personalized Care – We focus on individualized support plans that grow with each person’s needs.
✔️ Trust & Flexibility – Whether through a trained DSP or a PAC Preferred Caregiver, we offer options that prioritize comfort and consistency.
✔️ Empowering Independence – Our approach is about enhancing abilities, not just providing assistance.
At Family Solutions Home Care, we help individuals and families determine the best caregiving option for their needs, ensuring that each person receives meaningful, high-quality support in the way that works best for them.
Whether an individual receives support from a DSP or a familiar caregiver, the goal of PAC services remains the same: to enhance daily living skills, support independence, and promote well-being.
