Who We Help
Families call CareSphere for one reason. They want their loved one to stay home.
Aging in place allows seniors to stay safely at home with in-home care for seniors and elderly home care. Senior care at home and personal care services include help with bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders, mobility, housekeeping, and companionship. Families looking for a caregiver for an elderly parent can also access companion care and dementia care at home, helping seniors remain independent and safe.
Post-discharge recovery is hard alone. We placed a home health aide the same week — serving families from Jefferson, Temple, and Einstein in Philadelphia and UPMC and Allegheny General in Pittsburgh.
