Services we offer

In-Home and Community Support

Personal care is available for any daily tasks you may need support with, such as bathing, showering, applying creams and lotions, dressing and toileting, all in the comfort of your own home.

Companion

Companionship care is available and offers company and friendship. Companions may help with certain household chores; however, their primary purpose is to spend time with you or your loved one.

Respite

Respite care is available to provide temporary relief for a primary caregiver, enabling you to take a much-needed break from the demands of caregiving a sick, aging, or disabled family member.

This service includes: Household Cleaning and Maintenance: Ensuring the home remains clean and safe. Homemaker Activities: Meal preparation, laundry, and other essential tasks. This service is limited to 40 hours per year and is available when the individual or anyone else in the household is temporarily incapable of performing these tasks.

Key areas of focus include: Socialization: Developing social skills, understanding appropriate boundaries, and managing social discomfort. Employment: Providing vocational support, developing career goals, and promoting competitive employment and volunteer opportunities in alignment with Pennsylvania’s "employment first" initiative.
