What to Know About Protective Supervision
Protective supervision is a vital IHSS service designed for individuals who require constant monitoring due to cognitive impairments, disabilities, or certain mental health conditions.

What You Should Know:
- Designed for individuals who cannot be safely left alone due to a mental or cognitive condition.
- Can offer up to 283 hours of paid care each month.
- Care is often provided by a family member living in the same home.
- Approval requires thorough documentation, including medical records and evidence of specific behaviors and needs.
- Experienced legal representation can significantly improve the chances of a successful application or appeal.
Everything You Need To Know About Protective Supervision
Protective supervision is an IHSS program that helps California residents of all ages live safely at home. Recipients have a mental impairment or illness that makes them “nonself-directing,” meaning they are unable to assess danger or the risk of harm and are therefore likely to engage in potentially dangerous behaviors. Recipients are entitled to either 195 or 283 service hours per month for supervised care, including care provided by an eligible parent or family member. Although protective supervision is not always easy to secure, it can provide a huge means of support for families.
