Bloomfield, Pittsburgh
Compassionate, professional home care services for Bloomfield residents who want to maintain their independence and quality of life at home.
In-Home Care for Bloomfield Residents
In-home care in Bloomfield often begins with a referral from AHN West Penn Hospital, which sits inside the neighborhood at Liberty and Mathilda. The discharge planner reaches out to Care Solutions, and our intake coordinator schedules the home assessment within 24 hours. We review medications, ADL needs, fall risk, and the layout of the home, including stair access in Bloomfield's older row homes. From the visit we draft a care plan and match a caregiver to the loved one and the family's schedule. UPMC Shadyside sits just over the eastern boundary, and UPMC Presbyterian in Oakland is a short drive away. AHN Allegheny General handles AHN-network patients on cross-river follow-ups. Bloomfield has a long-tenured senior population, including many multigenerational households where adult children share caregiving duties. Housing density is high, with brick row homes and narrow lots packed along Liberty Avenue and the side streets. Common intake scenarios include post-discharge transition home, dementia care at home, and ADL support that fills gaps in family-led care. The 86, 87, and 88 bus routes run through Bloomfield, giving caregivers without cars a steady transit connection. The intake team confirms payment sources during the first call, including the CHC waiver, ACT 150, long-term care insurance, and private pay. Families ready to start can call (412) 341-7780, and a caregiver can typically be in place within 24 to 48 hours of the assessment visit.

In-Home Care in Bloomfield — FAQ
Is Care Solutions familiar with Bloomfield's Italian-American community and its values around family care?
Absolutely. Bloomfield families often have strong traditions of caring for their elderly at home, and we deeply respect that. Our role is to support — not replace — family caregivers. We can work alongside family members, fill gaps in coverage, and provide the professional care that allows loved ones to stay in the neighborhood they've called home for generations.
How close is Bloomfield to UPMC Shadyside and Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh?
UPMC Shadyside is just over the border into Shadyside, literally minutes from central Bloomfield, and Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh is nearby in Lawrenceville. This exceptional access to top UPMC facilities is a major advantage for Bloomfield clients transitioning home from the hospital.
Does in-home care work well for multigenerational Bloomfield households?
Yes — in-home care is especially compatible with multigenerational households, which are common in Bloomfield's Italian-American families. Our caregivers can be scheduled to support an elderly grandparent during hours when family members are at work, providing coverage without disrupting the household's natural rhythms.
Can caregivers in Bloomfield help with errands along Liberty Avenue?
Of course. Liberty Avenue is Bloomfield's main commercial corridor, and our caregivers regularly help clients with grocery shopping, pharmacy pickups, and other errands in the neighborhood. Staying connected to familiar local businesses is an important part of quality of life, especially for longtime Bloomfield residents.
