- Does the person receiving care live in Oklahoma? — Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- Does your relationship to the person — other relative — count for this program?
- Is the person receiving care in the covered age range (19 or older)?
- What counts as a qualifying disability or level of care need, and what documentation shows it?
- Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name. — Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
- What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
