Attendant Services

Adult High Technology Program

Adult High Technology services provides skilled nursing care to people age 21 and over living in home-based settings who are eligible for Vermont Medicaid and depend on medical technology to survive. Services include nursing services, coordinated treatments, medical supplies and sophisticated medical equipment. Services are provided through Designated Home Health Agencies.

Vermont Aging & Disabilities Resource Connections (ADRC) - No Wrong Door

The Vermont ADRC partners provide information, referrals and options counseling to help Vermonters make informed decisions about services to help them live with dignity and respect in the setting that they choose. The ADRC also provides valuable information and resources to people looking for respite and family caregiver support.

Vermont’s five Area Agencies on Aging (AAA) in partnership with the White River Junction Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) help Veterans to remain in their homes and communities through self-directed services.  Eligible Veterans are able to decide how to use a flexible budget to meet their needs where they desire to live.

The Attendant Services Program (ASP) supports personal care services for adults with a “severe and permanent disability” who need physical assistance with activities of daily living (such as bathing, getting dressed and eating) to remain in their homes. Applicants must be able to direct their own attendant care services. Payroll and employer services occur through a Fiscal Employer Services Agency called ARIS Solution.
