My beloved dad recently passed away after losing his battle with cancer. During his last months, he was lucky enough to have had Claire as his caregiver and friend. I firmly believe that Claire extended my dad’s life because of the love, laughter, compassion, silliness and extraordinary level of CARE she gave my dad – and she made him feel alive more than he had in a very long time. She was so good with him and he enjoyed his time with her so much that he actually forgot he was sick when she was around. They became forever friends, even though "forever" didn’t last long enough. From the very first day that I contacted Always Best Care of Upper BuxMont/Doylestown to arrange home care for my dad, I was met with an impressive and unexpected level of kindness, understanding and humanity. The owners, along with their team, felt like part of my family – which sounds strange I suppose, but there’s really no better way to describe it. This is not your typical caregiving agency, that’s for sure! I will forever be grateful to all of these wonderful people for how well they treated my dad.

At Effraim Home Care, we understand that finding the best home care for someone you love can be overwhelming, and we strive to provide the relief and restoration families need, alleviating anxiety and worry with a full continuum of exceptional care services, support, and advocacy. We believe that all older adults needing assistance and those challenged by intellectual difficulties should have the opportunity to live and thrive with choice and dignity in their own homes. Our high level of clinical expertise, along with our partnerships with other professionals and networks, helps individuals and their families to achieve a positive, enriching lifestyle in all seasons of life. As a Medicare-certified home health care company, we’re able to offer a broad range of in-home care services – making us a “one-stop-shop” for all of an individual’s specific care needs: from non-medical services such as help with personal care, meals, and housekeeping, to home health care including skilled nursing, therapy, social work, and home health aide services, including specialized programs for those with autism and intellectual disabilities. In considering how to best help each person meet and exceed care goals, we begin by asking ourselves, “How can we help this person live his or her most fruitful life?” We then create a customized plan of senior home care that may include any or all of the following types of services.

</p>
<p>We are available 24 hours a day by phone to respond to your requests. This includes clients who need services set up quickly for the first time. We are an employee-based home care agency, not a registry, which means we hire all of our caregivers directly, pay their taxes and insurance, and ensure they are properly supervised and trained, so you don’t have to.

<h4>Our Process</h4>
<p>Maybe your decision involves choosing between home care or a nursing home. Maybe you need help figuring out if companionship care is sufficient or live-in assistance is essential.

</p>
<h4>Step One: Initial Phone Consult</h4>
<p>When our clients, or their concerned family member, reach out to our agency, the first step is to schedule an initial phone consult. The phone consultation, or phone interview, is typically with a concerned family member of the person who is in need of services.
At this time, we discuss the location where the care will be provided, why you think your loved one may need care and how much care you feel is necessary on a weekly basis. We discuss the attributes and qualities you think may be helpful in a caregiver and review the payment options that NHC makes available to our clients and their families.
</p>
<h4>Step Two: In-Home Consult</h4>
When you decide to move forward in the process, our next step is to schedule an in-home consult. If possible, we recommend meeting in the home of the person for whom you are requesting care. We will spend time with you so you get to know our staff and our agency to a greater level. We will also look over the premises and create a plan of care for your loved one.
<h4>Step Three: Home Care Set-Up</h4>
<p>The last step is to set up care for the home. We make sure that the plan of care is followed so that there is a safe environment for the client. We complete all necessary paperwork, find the right caregiver to match what you need and set up a schedule for your in-home services.

I had used Pennsylvania Home Care for almost a year. They were providing assistance for my mother-in-law, and they were good. During the course of time, there were three different people. My mother-in-law is a senior and in her 90s, so she works better with the more mature caregivers, but the younger ones were OK. It was a few months back. Her insurance was paying for it but her insurance expired. Once that lapsed, they said we had to take a sabbatical before she could reapply, so that’s where we are now. The agency was reliable and good. She addresses concerns and she is very prompt about addressing the concern also. If they are getting insurance, she is very good with how to set that up.
