To Personal Assistants and Home Services Customers Across Illinois:
We understand that you may be wondering whether the Governor's new Stay at Home executive order applies to Personal Assistants in the Home Services Program.
The State of Illinois Division of Rehabilitation Services wants you to know: The Stay at Home Order does not prevent IPs/PAs from working. Vital PA services are exempt from the order, so please continue delivering care as you usually would while taking the necessarily health and safety precautions.
Sincerely,
DHS/DRS Home Services Program
