Frequently Asked Questions

Home Care Agency in Castle Shannon — FAQ

Does the T make a practical difference for home care planning in Castle Shannon?

Sometimes, yes. For clients who can still walk but no longer drive, caregivers sometimes accompany them on the T for appointments downtown at UPMC or AGH. For clients with mobility limits we use the ACCESS paratransit service or drive the client's own car.

Is St. Clair Hospital the best hospital partner for Castle Shannon residents?

For most, yes. St. Clair Hospital is about 10 minutes down Willow Avenue and is our most common discharge partner for Castle Shannon. Jefferson Hospital is a reasonable alternative for residents on AHN plans.

Yes. The CHC Waiver covers in-home personal care for Castle Shannon residents enrolled in Pennsylvania Medicaid through a participating MCO. Care Solutions bills directly — no out-of-pocket cost for most qualifying households.
