Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Billings:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adult Resource Alliance of Yellowstone County | (406) 259-2849 | 1505 Avenue D, Billings, MT 59102 | The State Office of Aging contracts with the Adult Resource Alliance to bring seniors the assistance and resources needed for aging in place with the highest possible levels of independence, safety and dignity. Its RIDES program takes adults aged 60 and older to and from medical visits, shopping trips and community events. For a nominal contribution, Meals on Wheels volunteers deliver hot, nutritious lunches on weekdays and frozen meals on weekends and holidays. |
| Medicaid Community First Choice Self-Directed Personal Assistance Program (CFC-SDPAS) | (406) 259-5181 | 1201 Grand Avenue, Billings, MT 59102 | CFC-SDPAS is an initiative that allows seniors and people with disabilities to manage their own in-home care support. Clients can recruit, hire, train and supervise caregivers that work in their residences. Services may include personal assistance with activities of daily living, light housekeeping and laundry, grocery shopping and medical escorts. The nonprofit agency LIFTT acts as a liaison for CFC-SDPAS in Billings. |
| Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) & Energy Share | (406) 247-4778 | 7 North 31st Street, Billings, MT 59101 | LIEAP can pay part of a qualifying applicant’s heating bill during the heating season of October through April each year.

Lend-A-Hand Volunteers schedule visits as needed for minor chores, repairs, snow removal or errands. Pet Care Services is available to assist with pet needs as well. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.

Review of Right at Home Billings, MT
They help my life because they come in and do my floor, my laundry, and make sure that I don't fall in the bathtub. They come in and do their work, they are cheerful, and they smile a lot.
