Riverside County In-Home Supportive Services
Riverside County In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) may authorize in-home help for eligible older adults and people with disabilities who can remain safely at home with support. A county social worker decides eligibility, covered tasks, and authorized hours after an application and assessment. Approval is not guaranteed, and IHSS is not automatic payment for a family caregiver.
