Eligibility
To be eligible for K-RAD, a caregiver must meet the following criteria:
-
Be a family member or other informal caregiver, 18 years of age or older, providing care to an individual
of any age living with Alzheimer’s or other related dementia. -
The care recipient must have a probable diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia.
-
The caregiver must live in Kansas in the same home as the care recipient (persons residing in a long-term
care community are not eligible). If the caregiver does not live with the recipient, an exception may be requested through KDADS.
If you have medical documentation, you do not need to have your doctor complete the medical documentation form. Submit your documentation with your KRAD application.
