At AmanaCare, we believe home is where care begins — and for families like Sonya and Trey’s, that truth shines bright. 💙

Trey is a 14-year-old who loves music, being outside, and swimming. His mom, Sonya, has been both his caregiver and his biggest advocate since the day he was born. As his LRI (Legally Responsible Individual) caregiver, Sonya is now able to provide the full-time care Trey requires — while also receiving the financial support her family needs.

“The new option for LRI has really been a blessing for me and my family. I have been Trey’s full-time caregiver (and mom ☺️) since he was born 14 years ago. With him being so medically complex, he requires care for every facet of life… LRI has allowed me to provide a little bit of financial relief to my family while still providing Trey the care that he requires and deserves.”
— Sonya, LRI Caregiver

The LRI program is part of Nebraska’s Medicaid Aged & Disabled Waiver, which allows parents, spouses, or guardians to become paid caregivers for their loved ones who need daily in-home support. For families searching, “Can I get paid to care for a family member in Omaha?” — the answer is yes. AmanaCare can help guide you every step of the way.

Sonya shared how easy the process was:

“Working with AmanaCare has been an amazing experience. Everyone has been so responsive and helpful with any questions I’ve had. It’s evident you all care about the caregivers and ensuring success.”

By providing constant, reliable care tailored to each person, we seek to be the guardian that they and their loved ones can trust. Every person is a unique gift from God, and therefore care is not one-size-fits-all. We craft our care plans to assist with your specific needs, the way you want them done.
