MSSP: An Alternative to Nursing Home Care
The Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) is a real, confirmed alternative to nursing home placement for El Dorado 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.
