Home care in Mount Bethel, PA
Home care for older adults in Mount Bethel and Upper Mount Bethel Township, with caregivers who come out to the country homes and quiet roads along Route 611.
Country roads and a caregiver you trust
Mount Bethel is open country along Route 611, with the Delaware Water Gap just up the road. Many older adults here live on larger properties where the neighbors are a drive away. Our caregivers make that life easier, helping with personal care, cooking and housework, and making sure your loved one is never stuck at home without a ride.
Elderly care in Mount Bethel works best with someone your loved one knows. We match carefully, send the same caregiver back each visit, and our care team checks in to adjust the plan as needs grow. Live-in care is an option when your family wants someone in the house all the time.
After Monroe or Pocono
Mount Bethel families often come home from St. Luke's Monroe Campus or Lehigh Valley Hospital Pocono in East Stroudsburg. A caregiver can be there the day your loved one comes home, go over the discharge papers with you, keep up with medication reminders and make the drive to follow-up visits so you don't have to take the day off.
A real person answers our Lehigh Valley office phone day and night, holidays included. We take good care of our caregivers, with holiday pay at time and a half, and it shows in the way they look after yours.
Long driveways and good company in Mount Bethel
Homes around Mount Bethel tend to sit on bigger lots, and that space is part of why your loved one wants to stay. It also puts the mailbox and the trash cans a long way off on an icy morning. A caregiver can bring in the mail, wheel the cans down and pick up the groceries, so your dad isn't heading out alone on a slick driveway.
For the stretch of hours between visits, our 24/7 Virtual Care places discreet sensors around the house, never cameras, and alerts our team when something looks wrong. Home from the hospital, your dad can rebuild his mornings a piece at a time, from a steady shower to breakfast at his own table, with a caregiver there for each step.
Home care in Mount Bethel can be social too. A caregiver can drive to a church supper, bring your loved one to see a friend a few roads over or simply sit and talk. Our Lehigh Valley office sends you news of each week, which helps when you live too far to stop by.
Frequently asked questions about home care
Click or tap a question to see the answer.
What's the difference between home care and home health care?
Home care, also called non medical home care, helps your loved one with everyday activities so they can stay safe and comfortable at home. A trained caregiver or home health aide assists with personal care like bathing, dressing, and toileting, along with daily tasks such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship.
Home health care is skilled medical care provided by a registered nurse (RN) or licensed practical nurse (LPN). It covers clinical tasks that require a nurse's oversight, such as IV therapy, wound care, and medication administration. Home health care is usually ordered by a doctor for a set period of time, often after a hospital stay.
Many families use both, with home care filling in the daily support between skilled nursing visits.
How quickly can care start?
In urgent situations, we can often start care the same day. For most families, care begins within one to two days. That gives us time to complete your free in home assessment, create a custom care plan for your loved one, and carefully match them with the right caregiver. We move quickly without cutting corners, because your loved one's safety and comfort always come first.
What happens during the free in home assessment?
During the free in home assessment, we take the time to get to know your loved one and your family, including their daily routines, preferences, and what matters most to them. We also complete a home safety assessment and share any recommendations to help prevent falls and make the home safer, at no charge. From there, we create a custom care plan and help you decide on the home care options and schedule that best fit your loved one's needs.
Will my loved one have the same caregiver each time?
We always do our best to keep the same caregiver with your loved one, and we note your preferences so every visit feels familiar and comfortable. Thanks to our low caregiver turnover and excellent training, most of our clients see the same friendly faces week after week. Of course, caregivers need time off and get sick sometimes too. When that happens, we let you know right away and send a wonderful, fully trained replacement who is already familiar with your loved one's care plan. That's the benefit of working with an agency. You're never left without help.
How much does home care cost?
The cost of in home care depends on several things, including where your loved one lives, how many hours of care they need, how often visits are scheduled, and the type of care required. Because every family's situation is different, the best way to get an accurate price is through our free in home assessment. There's no obligation, and we'll create a care plan that fits your loved one's needs. You'll always have a clear, written estimate before care begins, with no surprises.
How do I reach someone after hours or on weekends?
We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Just call our main office number and ask to speak with someone. A real person from our team will help you right away, whether it's a schedule change, a question, or an unexpected situation. We're always here for you.
