Care Nest Home Care Agency

Care Nest Home Care Agency is a Pennsylvania-based home care provider serving Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with non-medical in-home care services. The agency connects families with background-checked caregivers or helps qualifying family members become paid caregivers for their loved ones through Pennsylvania's Medicaid-funded programs.

Care Nest offers companionship care, personal care assistance with daily living tasks, homemaker services, and specialized support for conditions including Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and intellectual and developmental disabilities. The agency does not provide skilled nursing or clinical healthcare services such as wound care or injections.

A distinctive service is helping families navigate getting paid to provide care for a family member. The agency assists with program eligibility assessment, formal hiring as a paid caregiver, payroll management, and ongoing scheduling and adjustments. Adult children, siblings, grandchildren, and other close relatives may qualify under certain Pennsylvania Medicaid waiver programs, though eligibility varies by program.

Care Nest conducts free needs assessments, matches care recipients with compatible caregivers through a screening process, and maintains ongoing involvement with scheduling and support as needs change. The agency emphasizes transparency about service scope and availability of team members for questions and adjustments.
