Community-Based Alternative Services (CBAS) are offered to eligible older adults or adults with disabilities to restore or maintain their optimal capacity for self-care and delay or prevent inappropriate or personally undesirable institutionalization.
CBAS begins with a comprehensive assessment of the individual’s needs. Care managers will provide or coordinate professional nursing services; physical, occupational and speech therapies; mental health services; therapeutic activities; social services; personal care; nutritional counseling; and transportation to and from the participant’s residence and the CBAS center.
Caregivers make all the difference.
Whether you’re a professional caregiver or a family member caring for a loved one, your role is invaluable. Your patience, strength, and compassion shape lives—and today, we celebrate you.
At IOA, we are especially grateful for our own caregivers, whose dedication helps older adults age with dignity and care. 💙

Independence for their dad. Peace of mind for his family.

From medication reminders to fall detection, technology is transforming how families support aging loved ones.
