Frequently Asked Questions

In-Home Care in South Side — FAQ

How do caregivers manage the steep streets of the South Side Slopes?

The South Side Slopes are famously steep, and caregiver navigation is something we take seriously. Our care coordinators assess the specific location during the initial home visit to ensure safe access for caregivers and clients alike. We also evaluate home safety — including stair and step conditions — as part of every South Side Slopes intake.

Is UPMC South Side Hospital the closest hospital for South Side home care clients?

UPMC South Side on East Carson Street is the most convenient hospital for most South Side residents, and their discharge planning team frequently coordinates with our agency. UPMC Mercy in the Uptown area is also nearby. We work with both systems to ensure smooth care transitions from hospital to home.

Are the longtime residents of the South Side Slopes candidates for in-home care?

Many of the Slopes' residents have lived in their homes for 40 or 50 years and are deeply committed to staying put. In-home care is the most viable option for helping them do that safely as they age — especially given the neighborhood's challenging terrain, which can make outings difficult without assistance.

Does Care Solutions provide care in the flat South Side as well as the Slopes?

Yes — we serve clients throughout the South Side, including the flat streets near East Carson Street and the residential Slopes above. East Carson Street's commercial amenities, pharmacies, and transit connections make the flat South Side particularly convenient for aging in place, and we support clients in both parts of the neighborhood.
