I have a background as a BSN to care for my husband of 33 years who is now 85. Am I eligible to be a caregiver in GA?

Most programs will not pay a spouse. Any other family member could get paid but not the spouse.
And in any state there are no qualifications, certificates, license needed to be a CAREGIVER. To become a CNA will require a certificate course.

Most state Medicaid programs will pay a spouse, but there are a few that will not pay a member of the same household or a POA. Georgia is one of the few states will not pay a spouse.

You are wanting to be paid to take care of your husband? If he’s a veteran, he might qualify for aid and attendance and that could be used to pay you or a hired caregiver. If You could hire a homecare agency and the recoup some of the costs by getting hired by the agency & assigned to your husband. I don’t know if that would work though.

Are you talking about being paid to care for him? If so, you probably can't be paid because you r his wife.
