Are Small Changes In Your Loved One’s Behavior Becoming Bigger Concerns?
Home care in Philadelphia is about relationships, not just completing tasks.
That’s why we created ALB Home Care: to give families like yours a more personal alternative to large corporate senior care agencies. Our caregivers provide non-medical care with a personalized touch, treating your loved one like a person, not a case number.
We carefully select every caregiver and provide them with twice the required training before they start, so you can be sure that your loved one is in the most capable hands.
With four times as many care check-ins as required, 24/7 access to our personal phone numbers, and thoughtful caregiver matching, we build trust with your family from your very first call.
We’re not a large, impersonal home care agency. We know your loved one’s name, their story, and everything they need to live a safe, comfortable, and happy life at home.
We know their name, their story, their routines.
Not a case number. A person we genuinely know.

Daily In-Home Support, Personalized Around Them
Whether they need daily companionship or memory care through the night, our caregivers provide warm, attentive care to keep them safe, independent, and comfortable in the home they love.
24-Hour Home Care
Caregivers stay awake and alert 24/7, providing consistent check-ins and support throughout the day and night.
Live-In Care
One caregiver stays in the home for daily support and companionship. Because live-in caregivers take scheduled breaks and sleep at night, this may not be the best for seniors who need 24/7 oversight.
Overnight Care
Caregivers provide companionship and support for a safe night’s sleep, assisting with personal care, fall prevention, and reducing anxiety related to memory.

Answering The Most Common Home Care Questions
What are common signs my loved one could benefit from home care?
Your loved one may benefit from home care if you notice:
- Missed meals or changes in their eating habits
- Poor hygiene, body odor, or wearing the same clothes often
- More falls, balance issues, or trouble moving safely
- Forgetfulness with medications, appointments, or daily routines
- Loneliness, isolation, or less interest in activities they used to enjoy
- Difficulty keeping up with laundry, dishes, cleaning, or household tasks
- Signs that small changes are becoming bigger safety concerns
How much does home care cost?
The cost of home care depends on the level of support your loved one needs, how often caregivers are scheduled, and which care services you choose.
After learning more about your situation, we’ll help you explore your options and what may make the most sense for your family.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, ALB Home Care works with many insurance plans and waiver programs, including:
- Community HealthChoices
- Keystone First
- UPMC Community HealthChoices
- PA Health & Wellness
- AmeriHealth Caritas Pennsylvania
- Other Pennsylvania programs.
If your loved one qualifies for Medicaid, they may be eligible for benefits to cover care costs.
How do I know what level of in-home care is right for my loved one?
The right level of care depends on your loved one’s routines, safety concerns, mobility, memory, and personal care needs. We’ll assess their needs and help you decide which home care arrangement would work best for them.
How quickly can home care begin?
We’re often able to start care quickly once we learn what your loved one needs and make the right caregiver match.
