Supporting Seniors in Prosperity

From Prosperity, the Aging Waiver path generally starts with a call to the Washington-Greene Area Agency on Aging to request an intake. The Aging Waiver was Pennsylvania's longstanding program for adults 60 and older who clinically needed nursing-facility care but preferred to remain at home with paid support. Most of that population was rolled into Community HealthChoices in 2018, so today services are delivered through a CHC managed care organization while families and older paperwork still use the Aging Waiver name. Eligibility requires PA residency, age 60 or older, a clinical level-of-care determination, and financial qualification under Medicaid rules. The AAA handles the in-home assessment and helps confirm financial eligibility, then enrollment moves through a CHC MCO. Washington County offers UPMC Community HealthChoices, AmeriHealth Caritas CHC, and PA Health & Wellness. Approved services include personal assistance hours from a caregiver, adult day programs, home modifications like grab bars and ramps, personal emergency response devices, and respite for family. Prosperity is a small rural village in western Washington County, and many older residents farm or have ties to neighbors on the same back roads for decades. Care Solutions schedules caregivers across Prosperity, Washington, and Amwell Township. Call (412) 341-7780 if you want help navigating the AAA paperwork, picking a CHC plan, or scheduling caregivers once your loved one is approved for the program. Our team supports rural families through every step of the enrollment process.

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 Prosperity is committed to delivering compassionate, high-quality care.
