IHSS Evaluation for Arthritis & Musculoskeletal Conditions in Salinas, CA

You may find it harder to manage your home each day because of worsening joint pain. Many people across the Salinas Valley spent decades working in the fields and now face severe musculoskeletal damage. Our medical team conducts telehealth visits to see how your condition limits your independence. We ensure your IHSS paperwork accurately reflects your physical needs for the Monterey County social services department.

The physical history of the Salinas Valley often shows up in the joints of its residents. Long years of stoop labor and heavy lifting in the local agricultural industry lead to high rates of degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis. Walking across a room or opening a jar can become impossible tasks for those who fed the nation for years. These functional gaps are exactly what the IHSS program looks for when determining eligibility. Patients in older Salinas neighborhoods often need help with basic chores to stay safe in their own homes. We focus on proving that you require assistance to avoid moving into a nursing facility.
