Home Care Services and Rates in Bloomsburg & North Central, PA
We like to say “We give people the help they need to live in the place they love.” Below is information on our services, our service area, and cost.
Services
The caregivers we refer provide service in the comfort of your home, wherever that may be. This could be live-in care or overnight care for a senior adult or disabled person, or it could be post-surgery care for someone recuperating after a procedure or a major illness. Many times, caregivers start out providing simple medication reminders or personal care services like helping clients dress, and care services gradually increase with age.
Caregiver Core Home Care Services:
- Homemaking: light housekeeping, meal prep, laundry, etc.
- Companionship: incidental transportation, errands, safety and supervision, etc.
- Personal Care: help with bathing, grooming, dressing, etc.
Caregivers can also provide:
- Safety and supervision sitting during hospital and rehab stays
- Move-in assistance when a client moves into a new home or assisted living facility (ALF) to help them get settled in their new surroundings

Cost

- Rates quoted assume use of ACH (or auto debit) to ones checking account. Credit card or debit card payment is offered at a slightly higher cost.
- In addition to our private pay options, we work with most long-term care insurers, the Alzheimer’s Association Respite Program, the ALS Respite Program, the Holocaust Survivors program, the VA Home Aide Program, and Vet Assist.
- Rates vary based upon shift length, hours used per week, live-in vs. hourly, caregiver availability, etc. They also can vary based upon whether one is paying privately or using one of the special programs found above. Please call us for our current range.
*Note: Our all-inclusive rate quotes include the caregiver charges, our office fees, and payment processing using auto debit to one’s checking account. The caregiver portion is based upon the market rates the caregivers we have screened indicate they are willing to accept for shifts similar to those you are requesting .
