MSSP: An Alternative to Nursing Home Care
The Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) is a real, confirmed alternative to nursing home placement for Nevada County residents — here’s how it works and who to call.
What MSSP is
MSSP is a Medi-Cal home-and-community-based waiver program that provides care management and services as an alternative to nursing facility placement. It only operates through specific local “sites,” not everywhere in the state — so which organization serves you depends on where you live.
Nevada County is covered
The site serving Nevada County is Dignity Health Connected Living, which covers an 8-county North State region (Lassen, Modoc, Nevada, Plumas, Shasta, Sierra, Siskiyou, and Trinity). Contact them to ask about eligibility and enrollment:
- Phone: (530) 226-3097
- Address: 200 Mercy Oaks Drive, Redding, CA 96003
