HOME HELP IN DETROIT
Detroit families should not have to navigate Home Help alone
A lot of family caregiving begins before anyone calls it caregiving. You start helping with groceries, meals, getting dressed, bathing, walking safely, appointments, medications, or keeping a parent from being alone. Over time it can become hours of work every week.
Michigan Home Help is designed to support eligible people who need help with daily activities at home. When the care recipient qualifies and a caregiver meets program requirements, that caregiver may be paid for approved services. Allcare helps Detroit families understand the process, complete the required steps, and enroll the caregiver correctly.
Our office is in Southfield, and we serve Detroit-area families. You can start with a quick phone call or online eligibility check; you do not need to travel to our office just to find out whether the situation may fit the program.

DETROIT FAMILY CAREGIVER FAQ
Questions families ask before they call
Can I get paid to take care of my mother or father in Detroit?+
If your parent qualifies for Michigan Home Help and you are an eligible caregiver who completes the required enrollment, you may be paid for approved services. The care plan, authorized hours, and final eligibility are determined through the program.
What if I am already caring for them every day?+
That is exactly the kind of situation worth checking. Tell us what you already do each day and whether your loved one has Medicaid. We can explain which Home Help steps are still needed.
Does Michigan Home Help require CHAMPS enrollment?+
Yes. Michigan requires Home Help caregivers to enroll in CHAMPS and meet provider requirements before they can be paid. Allcare can guide you through what that means and where it fits in the process.
Do I have to hire a stranger?+
Home Help can allow eligible individuals to use an eligible family member or other chosen caregiver, subject to Michigan program rules. The point is to support approved care at home while giving the care recipient choice in who provides it.
