When Your Parent Needs More Help at Home Than Visits Can Cover
When you can’t be there every hour, home care in Whitpain fills the gap: bathing, meals, medication reminders, and moving safely around the house. In Blue Bell and Center Square, that last part usually starts the conversation, since the bedrooms are almost always upstairs.
We provide non-medical care, so the match matters more than the credential. Instead of sending the next available staffer, we pair your loved one with someone they’re actually excited to see.
Our caregivers train twice as long as required, and we check in four times more often than the rules ask.

We know their name, their story, their routines.
Not a case number. A person we genuinely know.

Flexible Care Services Based On Your Needs
Your loved one’s care should support their independence, not take it away. What that looks like changes as their needs do.
24-Hour, Live-In, and Overnight Care
- 24-Hour Home Care: Caregivers rotate in shifts and stay awake, so around-the-clock care means someone is always alert, not just present
- Live-In Care: One caregiver lives in the home to help with meals, hygiene, mobility, and household routines, with scheduled time to sleep overnight
- Overnight Care: Nighttime help with bathroom trips, repositioning, walking safely, fall prevention, and reassurance during moments of anxiety or sundowning
Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
- Familiar Routines: Our dementia care follows the same rhythm every day, from morning habits to the music and card games they’ve always liked
- Hands-On Daily Care: Help with dressing, grooming, meals, hygiene, and medication reminders
- Calm Redirection: Gentle redirection through confusion, frustration, fear, or agitation, without arguing or correcting
- Wandering and Fall Prevention: Close supervision to reduce the risk of falls, wandering, and unsafe activities in the home
- Regular Family Updates: Notes on changes in behavior, appetite, or routine, so nothing catches you by surprise
Personal Care and Companionship
- Personal Hygiene and Routines: Respectful help with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and medication reminders
- Mobility Support: Assistance with transfers, walking, and moving safely through the home
- Meals and Housekeeping: Grocery shopping, meal preparation, hydration reminders, plus laundry, dishes, and light housekeeping
- Errands and Appointments: Transportation to medical appointments, errands, and family visits around Whitpain and Montgomery County
- Companionship: Conversation, walks, reading, hobbies, games, and the routines that keep them feeling connected
Are You Eligible for Medicaid Home Care Coverage?

Caring For A Loved One?
You Could Be Getting Paid
If you regularly help your loved one with personal care, meals, errands, or other everyday tasks, you may qualify to receive payment for that support.
Community HealthChoices allows eligible family members, friends, and neighbors to become paid caregivers in Pennsylvania. Plenty of Whitpain families are already doing this work without knowing it can be covered.
- Getting started
Starting Home Care Is Simple
Talk to a care coordinator
You’ll reach a coordinator, not a call center. Tell us their routines, what’s been worrying you, and what they’d still rather do themselves.
Find out what benefits cover
Most of our clients pay nothing out of pocket. We’ll check whether Medicaid or Community HealthChoices covers their care, and if they aren’t enrolled in Long Term Care Supports and Services yet, we’ll walk you through applying.
Choose your caregiver, or let us choose
You can name someone you already trust, including a daughter, a neighbor, or a family friend, and we’ll hire and train them. Otherwise we hand-pick from our caregivers nearby, the same team covering Springfield Township and the rest of the county.
Get them trained and paid properly
Your caregiver completes our full training program before their first shift and gets paid the day each shift ends. That’s why our caregivers stay, and why your loved one keeps seeing the same face.
Begin care and stay in the loop
You’ll have our leadership team’s direct phone numbers, not a general office line, and we’ll adjust the plan as their needs change.
Why Your Neighbors in Whitpain Rely on ALB
Families in Blue Bell, Center Square, and Broad Axe choose ALB for the same reason our clients just over the line in Upper Dublin do. You always know who to call, and it’s never a regional manager three states away.
- PA licensed and family-owned, serving Montgomery County for over ten years
- The same care coordinator from start to finish, through every plan change
- Caregivers matched on personality and history, not just who was available

More Training, More Check-Ins, Better Outcomes
Our caregivers complete twice the training required before their first shift. Our care team then checks in four times more often than state and federal guidelines require, so small changes get flagged while they’re still easy to solve.
A Higher Standard of Care
Our owners founded ALB after a large corporate agency delivered sub-par care to their own aging parent. The standard they set then still governs our home care in Philadelphia and every county around it.
Reach Your Care Team 24/7
Call any time and you’ll reach someone who already knows your loved one’s care plan. We also work with families in eleven languages, which matters in a township where many households speak something other than English at home.

Answers To Your Most Common Home Care Questions
Do you cover the rest of Whitpain Township, or just Blue Bell?
All of it, including Center Square, Broad Axe, and Franklinville, plus neighboring Ambler, Plymouth Meeting, and Lower Gwynedd.
Does Medicare cover home care here?
Usually not. Medicare pays for short-term skilled nursing after a hospital stay, not ongoing daily help at home. Medicaid and Community HealthChoices are what typically cover this care in Pennsylvania.
Can a caregiver help my parent in a Blue Bell retirement community?
Yes. We regularly work alongside independent living and 55+ communities, filling the gaps their staff doesn’t cover, like one-on-one companionship or hands-on personal care.
Can care start right after a hospital discharge?
Yes, and the sooner you call the better. Discharge planners often give families a day or two of notice, so reach out as soon as a date is set, even before the care plan is final.
What happens if our caregiver is sick or takes time off?
We send a backup, and because we staff the township from caregivers who live nearby, that’s usually someone your loved one has already met.
