How is my need for personal care services assessed in CARE?
The department gathers information from you, your caregivers, family members, and other sources to assess your abilities and how you perform personal care tasks. The department will also consider developmental milestones for children as defined in WAC 388-106-0130 when individually assessing your abilities and need for assistance. The department will assess your ability to perform:
(1) Activities of daily living (ADL) using self-performance, support provided, status, and assistance available, as defined in WAC 388-106-0010. Also, the department determines your need for "assistance with body care" and "assistance with medication management," as defined in WAC 388-106-0010; and
(2) Instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) using self-performance, status, and assistance available, as defined in WAC 388-106-0010.
