Whether you’re searching for a caregiver for an aging parent, exploring Medicaid-funded home care, or transitioning to a new CCSP provider, our team is here to help you understand your care options.
What Is the CCSP Medicaid Waiver Program in Georgia?
The Community Care Services Program (CCSP) is part of Georgia’s Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program (EDWP).
CCSP helps eligible older adults and individuals with disabilities access home- and community-based services as an alternative to nursing facility placement.
For families, this can mean receiving assistance with everyday activities while allowing a loved one to remain in familiar surroundings.
Depending on individual eligibility, assessed needs, and the approved care plan, Medicaid waiver services may include personal care, assistance with daily living, respite support, and other community-based services.
Serenity Care & Compassion provides in-home support designed around each client’s authorized care needs.
Our team understands that choosing a home care provider is an important decision. We work to make the process welcoming, organized, and centered on the individual receiving care.

Who Qualifies for CCSP Medicaid Home Care in Georgia?
CCSP is intended for eligible Georgians who need a nursing-facility level of care but prefer to receive appropriate services in their homes or communities.

- Demonstrating a need for the required nursing-facility level of care.
