Harrison Senior Living has established a reputation over the past five decades for excellence in senior care. Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals and therapists are highly knowledgeable about the needs of the senior population and are committed to serving each individual with respect, compassion, and empathy.
We are known throughout Pennsylvania and Maryland for our senior living communities that include Independent Living, Personal Care , Assisted Living, Rehabilitation Services, and Skilled Nursing Homes. Harrison Senior Living extends that same level of expertise into our community services.
Individuals who require home health care services will benefit from our personalized approach to treatment and therapy.
Home health care services provide the peace of mind that many independent seniors and their families appreciate without interfering in an individual’s personal autonomy. Seniors who receive home health care services are often able to remain safely in their own homes, which could be best for their quality of life or more cost-effective than a senior living community.
Home health care services are offered as a temporary option or on an ongoing basis. In the case of recovery, rehabilitation, or respite, the care is provided for a set period or until a treatment plan is complete. If family members are the primary caregivers, home health care services provide much needed relief during vacations or other short-term breaks.
Ongoing home health care services are invaluable for managing chronic illnesses or disabilities. Qualified nurses and therapists who see an individual regularly are able to establish baselines and monitor for disease progression or concerning symptoms. Because the care involves a specialized treatment plan that caters to each individual’s needs, seniors are often able to thrive in their home environment and avoid deterioration in health that requires skilled nursing care.
For families who are unable to care for an aging relative at home, routine home health care services provide reassurance. Families of an independent senior who has the support of skilled caregivers feel secure maintaining their own daily lives.
In fact, home health care services often benefit the family relationship by removing the need to constantly evaluate and discuss medical matters. Families simply get to enjoy each other’s company, which further promotes senior independence.
Medicare Parts A (hospital insurance) and B (medical benefits) cover eligible, medically necessary home health care services. These can include skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, medical social services, some home health aide services, and the use of medical equipment within a patient’s home. For patients living in Pennsylvania and Maryland, certain requirements must be met for some home health care services to be provided.

Our staff of Registered Nurses (RN) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN) provide an exceptional level of care right in the patient’s own home.

Therapists are focused on the specific modalities applicable to geriatrics so that their methods and techniques are most beneficial to our population.
Medical social workers and case managers help seniors and their families explore and navigate the systems associated with their medical and non-medical care. Social workers assist with keeping track of the range of services and appointments an individual receives as well as providing helpful information about insurance coverage for medications, therapies, and procedures. Case managers also help individuals order medical and non-medical supplies and equipment that may be available under their insurance plan.
Home health aides, personal care assistants, and nutritional counselors assist with many activities of daily living. Nutritional counselors help individuals with meal planning and may arrange for meal delivery services when available. Home health aides and personal care assistants help seniors based on their individual needs and preferences. Aides typically provide help and peace of mind with activities of daily living, meal preparation, medication reminders, and light housekeeping.
