Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
For older adults who need help with continuing to age independently at home, there are several Philadelphia agencies offering assistance. These programs are free of charge for eligible seniors.
Resource | Contact | Service |
---|---|---|
Philadelphia Corporation for Aging Help in the Home Programs | (215) 765-9000 | The PCA operates several programs promoting independent living for older adults. PCA care managers can help seniors adequately plan for their long-term care needs. Eligible seniors might benefit from an in-home caregiver with the In-Home Support Program and the Domiciliary Care Program. The agency can provide minor home repair services such as repairing stairs, replacing electrical outlets and installing railings. |
SeniorLAW Center | (877) 727-7529 | Seniors in Philadelphia can receive advice, referrals and representation from volunteer attorneys and legal advisers with the SeniorLaw Center. Services are free of charge for eligible older adults. Seniors can get assistance in civil law areas such as housing, family law, consumer law and advance planning. |

Weatherization Assistance Program | (215) 609-1000 | Older adults on low incomes can benefit from free home repairs that make their homes more energy-efficient, which can help reduce the cost of their gas and electric bills.

LIHEAP-Crisis-UESF Grants | (215) 560-1583 | For seniors on a low income, the PGW offers several programs to help them pay for their energy bills. Eligible applicants may receive a set grant based on their household income. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
