Impact of 40-Hour Work Limit
 

Another concern is the 40-hour work limit for parent care attendants, particularly those with multiple children under the CCC Plus waiver. The assumption that children only require 40 hours of care per week is naive and fails to consider the actual needs of many children who have been approved for more than 40 hours. Parents are often in the best position to provide this care as they intimately understand their child's needs. Imposing a strict hourly limit may disrupt these children's necessary care and support.
