In Belleville, the average cost of home care is $31 per hour, according to A Place for Mom’s proprietary data.[01] Families can adjust the number of hours based on their loved one’s needs, whether that’s a few hours of help each week or daily support.

  • Limited medical supplies

For help with Medicare benefits, Belleville residents can contact the following Illinois Senior Health Insurance Program (SHIP) sites:

For general information and enrollment support, visit Medicare.gov.

In Illinois, the state Medicaid program provided home- and community-based services through the Community Care Program and the Persons who are Elderly waiver. Benefits from both can be used to pay for home care services.[04,05]

Covered benefits may include:

  • Personal care
  • Adult day care

VA benefits

Veterans in Belleville may qualify for the following veterans benefits to help cover the cost of home care services.

  • Aid and Attendance (A&A). The Aid and Attendance benefit provides additional monthly payments to eligible wartime veterans and surviving spouses who receive a VA pension and require assistance with daily activities.[06] These funds can be used to pay for in-home care services. To apply, visit VA.gov to download Form 21-2680. The completed form can be uploaded online, mailed in, or submitted in person at the nearest regional benefit office in St. Louis.
  • Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care. This program offers trained professionals to assist veterans with personal care needs, allowing them to remain in their homes. Services include help with activities like bathing, dressing, and meal preparation. Eligibility is determined by a VA health care provider, and services are coordinated through the local VA medical center. To apply, contact a VA social worker in Illinois for next steps.[07]
  • Veteran Directed Care (VDC). The VDC program allows eligible veterans to manage their own care services, including hiring personal care aides. This self-directed approach provides flexibility in choosing caregivers and tailoring services to individual needs. Enrollment is coordinated through the local VA medical center’s social work department.​ To access the program, reach out to your loved one’s VA social worker.[08]

Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA benefits, such as Aid and Attendance, to help pay for in-home support.[05]

Home care laws and regulations in Illinois

Home care providers in Illinois are regulated by the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH).[09]

Licensing and accreditation

In Illinois, both home health agencies that provide medical care and home services agencies that provide nonmedical support must be licensed by the IDPH.[09,10] This helps ensure compliance with care standards, training protocols, and staff supervision. Although it’s optional, agencies may pursue accreditation through CHAP or Joint Commission to demonstrate their commitment to quality care.

Hiring practices

Licensed agencies in Illinois are required to:[09,10,11]

  • Conduct criminal background checks
  • Ensure proper caregiver training and supervision
  • Maintain documentation of service delivery

These requirements promote consistency and help to ensure safety for care recipients statewide.

How to choose the right home care agency in Belleville

Whether you’re seeking daily support or specialized care for chronic conditions, asking the right questions and doing thorough research can help you find the best fit for your loved one.

Request detailed pricing information

Ask agencies to provide a written quote detailing hourly rates, minimum service hours, and any additional costs.

Ask about caregiver training and expertise

Inquire about caregiver experience with mobility support, dementia care, and chronic illness management. Check for ongoing training and certification.

Check licensing and inspection history

Ask for inspection history when you talk with agencies. Use the IDPH Home Services Agency Directory or the IDPH Home Health Agency Directory to verify an agency’s license status.

Read home care reviews

Reviews can provide valuable insight into caregiver reliability, agency communication, and service quality. Look for consistent feedback themes.
