Adult protective services division is always om top of it when I have to call in and make a report for a patient. Child protective services on the other hand is despicable. Natasha and Kay (cps case workers) are liars and manipulative.

I’ve been speaking with Ms. Blount in the Snaps benefit department for the past several weeks waiting on verification forms to be sent to my email that she claims to be “waiting on” but she still has not forwarded them over. I have been waiting on these documents religiously. I called her back 1 hour later after speaking with her today. It rung once & was forwarded to voicemail. This is ridiculous playing with peoples livelihood. Please stop getting jobs you are not passionate about.

Questions & Answers

Social services is exactly what is wrong with the laws governing family issues as far as economic, mental, & most importantly SOCIAL issues. They dont get involved enough in their jobs to help where help should be required. They don't check anything

OK

I have questions concerning some of the benefits I see online that are available for my 93 yr old mother. Can I make an appointment with social services that can answer my question?

You'll likely be instructed to apply for whatever benefits you need online. They will reach out to you if they need more information and for any verifications. Applications are easy.

You can apply for benefits online in any city that have computers in their lobby to apply online but make sure you specify your city on the online application...the website to apply online is www.dss.virginia.gov once your on the site go to the Assistance tab at the top of the menu screen in blue, then click on what you need assistance with...if that is not as user friendly as you like, go into your local office and get assistance in person with applying

I have a mother in law who lives in Chesapeake, has no money and needs help. My sister in law takes care of her but she needs time for herself. Is there any help anywhere?

nina shiminski | Nov 2, 2018
Bayou Born | Nov 2, 2018

Nina, there is a medicaid waiver that is called CCC Plus, I believe. It was formally the EDCD (Elderly or Disabled Consumer Directed) waiver. It is based on financial and care level needs. I would suggest that you call the Health Department, not Social Services. If you can't find any information, contact the Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS) in Richmond and ask specifically for the Medicaid waiver for disabled elderly. This will provide medicaid and respite services for your SIL if your MIL qualifies.
