Applicants with limited income and resources who receive Medi-Cal in Riverside County. Elder or Dependent Adults whose physician or a medical professional has determined that they are unable to remain safely in your own home without IHSS.

Why is protective supervision important?

The IHSS program is comprised of four programs which will be discussed later. People who qualify for protective supervision are eligible for the maximum number of monthly hours, either 195 or 283. However, the maximum number of hours needed depends on which of the four programs apply and whether a recipient is considered “severely impaired.”

The total number of hours authorized (i.e. hours a recipient can get) may also be adjusted due to the receipt of alternative resources. IHSS recipients should refer to their Notice of Action to see which IHSS program they have been
placed in and how their hours were determined by the county.

Ihss Protective Supervision  Protective Supervision is part of the In-Home Support Services (IHSS) program in California, which are services paid for by state governments to help keep children who are disabled to safely remain at home with their parents. It is for children and adults with a mental impairment that have self-harming and or dangerous behaviors that they engage in without regard to consequences. These behaviors must be regularly occurring and random. That is why they need someone to supervise them 24 hours a day 7 days a week to minimize injury to themselves. If you are raising a child with a disability such as autism, Down syndrome or cerebral palsy, you might be eligible for Protective Supervision, which allows financial support of up to $3,000 per month. If your child engages in any behaviors that put them at risk for harm or injury without awareness of consequences, you should pursue getting Protective Supervision. Apply for Protective Supervision
