Non-Medical Home Care
Agency in Webster, PA

What is Non-Medical Home Care?

Non-medical home care provides assistance with daily living activities that don't require a licensed medical professional. This includes personal care, companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and transportation.

Webster residents and their families sometimes assume any in-home help is the same. It is not. Non-medical home care covers personal care and homemaking tasks performed by trained caregivers under agency supervision. Skilled home health covers clinical care delivered by licensed nurses and therapists under physician orders. Care Solutions is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health under Chapter 611 as a home care agency. That means we provide bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transfers, meal prep, light housekeeping, laundry, medication reminders, and transportation. We do not draw blood, change sterile dressings, manage IV lines, or perform skilled nursing assessments. When those services are needed, your physician orders them through a separate Medicare-certified home health agency. Knowing the scope matters because the conversation with your insurance, your doctor, and your family depends on it. Medicare does not pay for ongoing non-medical care. It does pay for short-term skilled care after a qualifying event. Non-medical care is usually funded through private pay, long-term care insurance, VA benefits, or the Community HealthChoices Medicaid waiver. The two services frequently overlap. After a hospital discharge, a home health nurse may visit twice a week while our caregiver provides daily personal care and meal prep. When the skilled episode ends, we continue. Call (412) 341-7780. We serve Webster, Belle Vernon, and the Mon Valley communities of Westmoreland and Washington Counties.
