Abstract
South Carolina Community Long Term Care decided to have Winthrop University look at the paid family caregiver program from a participant perspective with particular interest in how the attendant option is going overall, satisfaction issues, and issues related to quality and impact of care. Two key questions that Community Long Term Care hoped to answer through this study are what positive impact the attendant option is having on participants and their families, and what kinds of policies need to be developed to maximize the benefits of the attendant option while minimizing the potential for misuse.
