Are You Worried About Your Loved One Living Alone?
When small changes make it harder for your loved one to live safely on their own, home care in Lower Merion can help them stay independent in the space they love.
We built ALB Home Care to give Lower Merion a more personal alternative to large home care companies, providing relationship-focused care that treats your loved one like family.
We provide twice the training, four times more care check-ins, and 24/7 access to our team, giving your loved one the support they need and your family the peace of mind you deserve.

Questions About Home Care? You’re Not Alone
What are common signs my loved one could benefit from home care?
If daily routines are becoming more difficult or you’re becoming increasingly concerned about your loved one’s safety, it may be time to consider home care. Signs may include:
- Skipping meals or noticeable weight loss
- Trouble bathing, dressing, or maintaining personal hygiene
- Frequent forgetfulness with medications or appointments
- Increased risk of falls or difficulty getting around safely
- Feeling isolated or withdrawing from social activities
- Household chores and errands going unfinished
- Growing concerns about their ability to remain independent at home
How much does home care cost?
The cost of care varies based on the amount of assistance your loved one needs, the type of care provided, and the number of hours scheduled each week.
After learning more about your situation, we’ll discuss available options and help you find a care plan that fits your family’s needs.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, we work with several Pennsylvania insurance plans and waiver programs that may cover the cost of care, including:
- Community HealthChoices
- Keystone First
- UPMC Community HealthChoices
- PA Health & Wellness
- AmeriHealth Caritas Pennsylvania
- Other Pennsylvania benefit programs
If your loved one qualifies for Medicaid, they may be eligible for home care benefits.
How do I know what level of care is right for my loved one?
The best care arrangement depends on your loved one’s daily routines, level of mobility, the state of their memory, and the amount of support they need throughout the day.
We’ll take the time to learn about your situation and recommend the level of care that makes the most sense for your family.
How quickly can care begin?
In many cases, care can start shortly after we complete an assessment and identify the right caregiver for your loved one.
Our team will guide you through the process and work to get support in place as quickly as possible.
