Care and Safety Practices During COVID-19 in Home Based Care
This survey and interview study examines the system response to the COVID-19 pandemic in home-based care in Kansas. How did the pandemic impact the delivery of home care? How were new safety practices identified, negotiated, and enforced? How did the pandemic impact the well-being of those who receive and provide this care? In this community-engaged study, perspectives will be gathered from those who receive and provide Medicaid-funded home care services in order to learn what worked and what didn’t work. The end goal is to identify policies and practices that can improve home and community-based services and supports for consumers, caregivers, and workers.
