WV Bureau of Senior Services offers assistance and programs for elderly West Virginians, including
the following:
The Aged and Disabled Waiver (ADW) Program, a community-based program that provides care in the
home. In order to qualify for this program, you must have the same needs as someone living in a nursing
home. By choosing the ADW Program, you are choosing to receive services at home and community
activities such as doctor appointments, grocery shopping, etc. You will be assigned a Level of Service
that determines the maximum hours of service you can receive each month. Services are based on your
Service Plan. Medical and financial eligibility must be redetermined every year.
The Lighthouse Program, available in each county, is funded entirely by state monies and provides
support in four areas: personal care, mobility, nutrition, and housekeeping.
