Serving Crafton

In-Home Care for Crafton Residents

Most Crafton families reach our agency at (412) 341-7780 after a hospital stay or a doctor's recommendation. Choosing a licensed agency means the state of Pennsylvania is auditing our caregiver files, not just our intentions. Care plans are not boilerplate; we write them around the loved one's actual day, then adjust as needs change. Our scheduler holds back-up caregivers in each ZIP code, which keeps call-offs from turning into missed shifts. Independent hospitals like St. Clair, Heritage Valley Sewickley, and Ohio Valley send us discharge referrals on their own timelines, and our intake team is set up for that handoff. For Crafton loved ones, that often means coordinating with discharge planners at Ohio Valley Hospital or UPMC Mercy. The county Area Agency on Aging, reachable on Bigelow Boulevard, runs the OPTIONS program for non-Medicaid seniors, and we accept those referrals. Most Medicaid-eligible households we serve are enrolled in one of the three CHC plans (UPMC CHC, AmeriHealth Caritas CHC, PA Health & Wellness) and pay nothing out of pocket. Many of our caregivers are family members paid through the CHC Waiver to care for a parent, spouse, or adult child at home. Schedules range from a few hours twice a week for bathing and meals up to round-the-clock live-in coverage. Crafton is a small borough by population, which keeps caregiver drive times short and shift coverage steady during bad weather. Our intake line for Crafton is (412) 341-7780, staffed during business hours by people who actually work in scheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Home Care Agency in Crafton — FAQ

Is Ohio Valley Hospital the main discharge partner for Crafton?

Often, yes. Ohio Valley Hospital (part of the Heritage Valley network) in Kennedy Township is about 10 minutes from Crafton. UPMC Mercy downtown is also an option for specialty care, reachable via the Parkway West.

How does a home care agency handle Crafton's steep streets?

Carefully. Many Crafton homes sit on steep side streets that challenge winter driving. We schedule longer shifts where possible to limit trips, and in icy weather we work with families to adjust timing rather than risk unsafe travel.

Does Medicaid home care cover Crafton residents in 15205?

Yes. Crafton residents on Pennsylvania Medicaid through the CHC program are eligible for in-home personal care through the CHC Waiver. Care Solutions bills the MCO directly — no out-of-pocket for most qualifying families.
