Non-medical home care services built around daily life
Compassion Home Care helps participants manage everyday activities with greater safety, dignity and independence. Services are based on the participant's needs, preferences, care plan and authorized hours.
What our caregivers do, and what they do not.
Our caregivers provide non-medical support. They do not diagnose conditions and do not replace nurses, physicians, physical therapists or other licensed healthcare professionals.
That boundary is not a limitation we are embarrassed about. It is what a Pennsylvania home care agency is licensed to do, and being clear about it is how you can tell a serious agency from one that will promise anything to win the enquiry.
