What is an ACES evaluation, who is eligible, and how can I get evaluated?
The State of Maryland has programs in each county to give information to help disabled and frail adults remain as independent as possible in a safe setting. In Howard County, we talk with people by phone or make home visits to understand what is needed and to look at the resources available for appropriate care. If a person is experiencing difficulty is maintaining themselves independently in their own home Adult Community Evaluation Services (ACES) may be able to help, by providing an in-home assessment and by making recommendations for helpful changes. This is a free evaluation service and is available to any Howard County resident who is finding it difficult to remain independent in their own home without support. To find out more about this service or to make an appointment for an evaluation call 410-313-5980, or email at map@howardcountymd.gov.
