Home Care Resources in Luzerne & Lackawanna County, PA
Having home care support does not mean you need to stay in your home! Our office team is active in the community and familiar with popular events and spots for social outings. Our caregivers can challenge you or a loved one to a board game or a trivia contest just as easily as they can accompany them to bingo night, the movies, family events, a ball game, or a fun shopping trip.
If your loved one is active and simply needs companionship or supervision, our caregivers are happy to take a walk with them along the Susquehanna river (or sit on a bench and watch the kayaks go by!). Patron of the arts? Caregivers can accompany your loved one to a show at the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts! The sky’s the limit. Our goal is to make sure your loved one has the quality of life they deserve with the support they need.

Active Adult Centers Luzerne County - The goals of the Active Adult Centers are to help older adults in Luzerne-Wyoming Counties to remain healthy, active, independent and contributing members of the community as long as possible. Active Adult Centers represent an important entry point into the Aging network and into the continuum of long-term care. Active Adult Centers are often the first support service sought by an older individual, his/her family or friends. By providing health and wellness services, the role of the Active Adult Center is to reverse or delay the need for more intensive services.
Veteran’s Aide and Attendance - Wartime veterans and their surviving spouses, 65 years and older, may be entitled to a tax-free benefit called Aid and Attendance provided by the Department of Veteran Affairs. The Benefit is designed to provide financial aid to help offset the cost of long-term care for those who need assistance with the daily activities of living such as bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, and transferring.
VA Care in the Community - VA provides care to Veterans through community providers when VA cannot provide the care needed.
