3.1 / 5.0

This company is worth looking at if you need care for an elder. The workers that they have sent out have been pretty good for the most part.

4 / 5.0

So far from what my mother has told me, everything is working out well for my father since her started home care. It is a work in progress, but they are taking good care of him, and his needs. We are pleased with all they have done for us.

Research services for seniors in Philadelphia, PA

In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, seniors have access to local offices and organizations that may help them obtain financial assistance for senior care, including:

Philadelphia is not car dependent, meaning seniors can expect to rely on public transportation. Transit options in Philadelphia include The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), which offers comprehensive bus, subway, and commuter rail systems all throughout the city. Seniors may receive fare discounts. Philadelphia also has robust biking infrastructure and is ranked as one of the most walkable cities in the country.

Philadelphia offers several health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has several hospitals, including Reading Hospital and Lancaster General Hospital.

As one of the oldest cities in the U.S., Philadelphia is filled with rich history and vibrant culture. The city hosts many renowned historic sites closely tied to the Revolutionary War and the nation’s founding. Senior history buffs will delight in the numerous walking and bus tours that showcase Philadelphia’s iconic sites, and the multitude of nearby senior centers provide a wide variety of senior-friendly entertainment options.

What is home care?

  • Help with personal care
  • Housekeeping
  • Mobility assistance
  • Laundry
  • Complimentary transportation
  • Nutritious meals
