Getting Started

Tips for Patients & Family Caregivers

Whether you're exploring options for yourself or a loved one, these tips will help you navigate the process.

For Patients

  1. Talk to your doctor — get a home health referral if you need skilled care
  2. Understand your insurance — Medicare covers skilled home health if you're homebound
  3. Know your rights — you can choose any Medicare-certified agency
  4. Ask about caregiver qualifications and background checks
  5. Start with a needs assessment — most agencies offer free evaluations

For Family Caregivers

  1. Don't wait until crisis — early planning gives you better options
  2. Create a care plan — list daily activities that need support
  3. Interview multiple agencies — ask about caregiver turnover, training, and emergency protocols
  4. Check state licensing — verify the agency is licensed by the PA Department of Health
  5. Look for signs of quality — ask about satisfaction surveys and complaint history
  6. Explore financial assistance — PA has Medicaid waiver programs (OBRA, Aging Waiver, COMMCARE)
Be Prepared
