Crotched Mountain
Community Care
We help adults with unique needs live a life of independence in the community.
Crotched Mountain Community Care (CMCC) is an independent program of Crotched Mountain Foundation, providing person-centered case management services to clients throughout all of New Hampshire.
As an award-winning, proven leader in the case management field, we are committed to helping people remain independent, safe, and healthy in their own homes.
CFI Case Management
CMCC provides comprehensive case management services for individuals on the New Hampshire Choices for Independence (CFI) Medicaid waiver program. CMCC serves nearly 1,000 clients all across the Granite State.
CMCC Case Managers coordinate in-home services like personal care and nursing, provide access to resources for medical equipment and home modifications, and maintain an ongoing relationship through regular home visits and phone calls. CMCC offers an alternative to nursing home placement for those choosing to remain in their own homes.
Collaborative Case Management
Professionals from our case management team meet clients to assess need. We work with the individual and their family to create a person-centered service plan. Based on this plan, CMCC case managers then coordinate services provided by local agencies, government programs, or community organizations to supplement care given by family, friends, or neighbors.
An Ongoing Relationship
CMCC case managers monitor services and resolve concerns to ensure quality. We advocate for clients in need of resources (e.g., home modifications, medical equipment, in-home services) to ensure independence, safety, and quality of life. Thanks to our affiliation with Crotched Mountain Foundation, CMCC has grant funding available, which can offer clients additional resources including medical equipment and home modifications not covered by insurance as well as items needed for basic needs.
CMCC supports a variety of needs, including:
- Nursing care
- Home health aides (LNAs)
- Homemakers (housekeeping)
- Adult medical day care
- Personal emergency response systems
- Respite care
- Medical transportation
- Prescription drug programs
- Housing resources
- Mental health resources
- Durable medical equipment
- Assistive technology
- Referrals to community resources
- Nutrition programs (Meals on Wheels, Commodity Foods)

Meet Linda, a client of Crotched Mountain Community Care (CMCC). She recently received a new power wheelchair thanks to the hard work of Dave, her CMCC case manager. Dave pieced together funding through a special grant applied for and distributed by Crotched Mountain Foundation as well as community grant programs from Womenaid and Easter Seals to help her pay for functions of the chair that weren’t covered by insurance (for example, the seat riser, which Linda shows off in the picture).
“She wanted the seat riser so she could talk to people face to face as well as access different parts of her apartment,” Dave says.
What’s even niftier? Linda’s favorite color is purple – most things in her apartment are purple – so she was thrilled to get her new power chair in purple (special-ordered even!).
Now Linda is able to remain independent and in her community through the expert and life-changing work of CMCC.
