Supporting Seniors in Bentleyville

From Bentleyville, the Aging Waiver path typically starts with a call to the Washington-Greene Area Agency on Aging, which handles intake for Washington County residents. The Aging Waiver was Pennsylvania's longstanding program for adults 60 and older who needed nursing-facility level of care but chose to remain at home. Since 2018 most of that population has been integrated into Community HealthChoices, though families and state notices still reference the Aging Waiver name. Eligibility requires PA residency, age 60 or older, a clinical level-of-care determination, and financial qualification under Medicaid limits. The AAA conducts the in-home assessment and helps document financial eligibility, then enrollment moves through a CHC managed care organization. Washington County uses UPMC CHC, AmeriHealth Caritas CHC, and PA Health & Wellness. Covered supports include personal assistance from a caregiver, adult day services, home modifications, personal emergency response systems, and respite for family caregivers. Bentleyville is a small Mon Valley borough along I-70, and many older residents have lifelong ties to neighbors and church communities here. Care Solutions schedules caregivers across Bentleyville, Charleroi, and Monongahela. If your loved one is recovering from a hospital stay or you are facing a sudden need for more help at home, call (412) 341-7780. We help families understand the AAA referral, pick a CHC plan, and arrange in-home hours once authorization is in place.

The Pennsylvania Aging Waiver program provides essential services that allow seniors to remain in their homes and communities rather than moving to a nursing facility. Our dedicated team in Bentleyville is committed to delivering compassionate, high-quality care.
