Frequently Asked Questions

In-Home Care in Shadyside — FAQ

Is UPMC Shadyside Hospital able to refer patients directly to home care after discharge?

Yes — UPMC Shadyside's discharge planning team frequently coordinates with home care agencies like Care Solutions for patients returning home after surgery, hospitalization, or rehabilitation. If your loved one is being discharged from UPMC Shadyside, call us and we can often have a caregiver in place within 24 to 48 hours.

Do many Shadyside families use long-term care insurance to pay for home care?

Long-term care insurance is quite common among Shadyside residents, and we work with virtually all major LTC insurance carriers. We can help you navigate the claims process and provide the documentation insurers require. Private pay is also straightforward, and we can discuss all available payment options during your free consultation.

Can caregivers help Shadyside seniors get to Walnut Street shops and medical appointments?

Absolutely. Our caregivers regularly accompany clients on errands, shopping trips along Walnut Street, and appointments at nearby UPMC facilities. Maintaining access to the neighborhood your loved one has always enjoyed is one of the biggest benefits of in-home care over a residential facility.

Are Shadyside's older Victorian homes a challenge for in-home care?

Many Shadyside homes have stairs, narrow hallways, and older layouts that require some planning. Our care coordinators assess the home environment during the initial consultation and can recommend modifications — like grab bars or ramp installations — to make aging in place safer in a classic Shadyside home.
