How to Get Paid to Care for a Family Member in Michigan

Caring for an aging or recovering loved one is a big responsibility—and a labor of love. But did you know you might be able to get paid for it?

At Stay Home Home Care, we help Michigan families get the support they need—without jumping through the usual hoops.

Skip the State Hassle

Most people think you have to go through the State of Michigan to get paid as a caregiver. That process is often slow, confusing, and frustrating. You’re stuck dealing with:

  • Long applications
  • Monthly invoice submissions
  • Poor communication with busy caseworkers
  • Low pay ($15.88/hour—barely above minimum wage)

There’s a better way.

A Simpler, Better Way to Get Paid as a Family Caregiver

We make the process easier, faster, and more rewarding. Here’s what we offer:

  • Full support through every step of the application
  • Higher pay than state programs
  • No paperwork headaches—we handle your invoices
  • Help communicating with caseworkers
  • A wide range of eligible services: cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, medication reminders, and more

How to Start

  1. Download and fill out the application.
  2. Call us at 888-313-STAY (7829) when you’re done—we’ll arrange to pick them up or send a prepaid envelope for you to mail them back.
  3. Once we receive everything, we’ll submit the paperwork to the State on your behalf.
  4. A caseworker will schedule an in-home visit to assess your loved one’s needs.
  5. After approval, you’ll start receiving pay for the care you’re already giving.

That’s it!

Ready to Get Started?

There’s no cost to apply, and once approved, we’ll bill Medicaid directly. This service is already included in your loved one’s Medicaid benefits—it won’t affect their coverage or any other support they receive.

Let us help you turn care into income. Contact Stay Home Home Care today!
