Services
HomeTeam helps Missouri families get care at home, including personal care, homemaking and respite care. Through Missouri CDS, eligible participants choose their own caregiver while HomeTeam handles payroll, required documentation, electronic visit verification guidance, and program administration—so families can focus on approved care at home.

In-Home Services
For those with advanced medical needs, we provide the appropriately trained personnel. All employees go through an extensive background check and pre-employment screening process. Once hired, our aides complete a training program under the direction of a RN. We pride ourselves on hiring practices which insure trustworthy, compassionate employees who deliver the highest quality of care.


Consumer Directed Services
This unique Medicaid program offers patients the opportunity to be more in control of who provides the care and support. Known as self-directed care or consumer-directed services (CDS), this model allows you to choose your own caregiver directly and coordinate with the HomeTeam to manage the more complicated aspects such as payroll, taxes, and plan of care.
With CDS, eligible participants may hire a qualified friend or family member, except a spouse or legal guardian. The participant directs the schedule and daily work within the state-authorized care plan. HomeTeam supports payroll, taxes, required documentation, electronic visit verification guidance, and administrative questions.WHO MAY QUALIFY FOR MISSOURI CDS?Missouri determines eligibility case by case.
