Non-Medical Home Care for South Park Families
Inviting someone into your home, or into your mom's or dad's home, is a big step, and we know that. Every Superior caregiver goes through a rigorous screening before hire and a two-week training program, then keeps learning with 20 to 25 hours of training every year. Superior is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health as a home care provider, and the care we give is non-medical: the everyday help that keeps a person safe, comfortable and independent at home.
Senior home care in South Park, PA can be as much or as little as your family needs, from a few hours each week to around-the-clock assistance. We match each family with a caregiver who meets the care needs and connects with your loved one on a personal level, too. Our 24/7 on-call support is handled by our own staff, day or night, any day of the week.
Superior first opened its doors in 2002, and this year we're celebrating 25 years of caring for families. Our office is at 500 N Lewis Run Rd, Suite 214, in West Mifflin, and our owners and team have deep ties to the communities of Southwestern PA. Families nearby know us well, too, since we also provide home care in Bethel Park, home care in Pleasant Hills and home care in Jefferson Hills.
Home Care Services in South Park, PA
In-home care in South Park Township, PA is built around the person, one service or several at a time. Most families combine a few, and the plan changes as your loved one's needs change.
Companionship Care
Companion care in South Park gives your loved one good company and something to look forward to. Caregivers share friendly conversation and emotional support, encourage hobbies and social activities, and help with reading, games and walks. They can come along on outings, too, so getting out into the community stays part of the week.
Homemaker Services
Homemaker services cover the everyday upkeep that keeps a house comfortable: light housekeeping and laundry, meal planning and preparation, grocery shopping and errands. It's the help that frees up your loved one's energy for the things they enjoy.
Personal Care Assistance
Caregivers help with bathing, dressing and grooming, mobility support and transfers, and incontinence care and hygiene, always with privacy and dignity in mind. Each client starts with an in-person assessment for our personal assistance and care services, and every visit follows a support plan we create together with you.
Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
Dementia care in South Park comes from caregivers who complete our Dementia and Alzheimer's Training program. They keep daily routines steady to ease confusion, offer engaging activities like memory games and music, and keep watch for wandering. You can read more about care from our dementia and Alzheimer's specialists, including the respite it gives family caregivers so you can rest and recharge.
Mobility Care
Living at home after a brain or spinal cord injury, or with a condition that affects safe movement, calls for specially trained hands. Caregivers in our Mobility Training program for safe movement at home complete 25 hours of specialized training, pass a hands-on skills test and recertify every year.
Special Needs Support
Staff trained in our Special Needs Program provide individually tailored support for people living with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Support is designed for as much independence as possible, and the person we serve keeps their choices.
Veterans Home Care
South Park Township is home to 593 veterans, and many of them want to stay right where they are. Our in-home care for veterans and their families includes personal care, companionship, mobility help to prevent falls, and respite for family caregivers.
Care Coordination
Every client receives basic care coordination at no cost. Three fee-based levels add more help keeping every part of your care working together, from medical appointments to the move home after a hospital stay.
Aging in Place in South Park Township
About 20.9% of South Park Township residents are 65 or older, and 80.4% of homes here are owner-occupied. That's roughly one neighbor in five, and most of them own the house they live in, across neighborhoods that are mostly residential in Library, Broughton and Snowden.
Two out of three homes in the township were built before 1980, and a third of them went up in the 1970s alone. Houses from that time were built for the young families who moved in, so the stairs, the tub and the front steps can get harder to manage over the years. Our caregivers help with mobility, safe transfers and fall prevention, so getting around the house feels steady again.
Of the township's 5,705 households, 759 are people 65 or older living on their own. Elder care in South Park often starts right there, with a caregiver who stops by for conversation, folds a load of laundry and makes the grocery run, the kind of help that makes a quiet week feel a lot less lonely.
Hospitals and Medical Care Near South Park
Jefferson Hospital in Jefferson Hills and St. Clair Hospital are two of the hospitals South Park families turn to. A stay at either one usually ends with discharge papers, new instructions and a string of follow-up appointments, and those first weeks at home can feel like a lot to keep track of.
Our care coordination covers that move home after a hospital or rehab stay. With our Level I support, we can make in-person check-in visits while your loved one is in the hospital, help with the transition home and go along to medical appointments afterward. We also provide hospital to home transitional care for qualifying lines of Highmark Health Plan coverage.
Recovery at home goes more smoothly with a steady hand nearby. Personal care helps with bathing, dressing and moving around safely while your loved one regains strength, and companionship visits can include errands, shopping and trips to follow-up appointments, at whatever pace feels right.
Senior Resources in South Park and Allegheny County
Allegheny County's programs for older adults, offered through the Area Agency on Aging and its SeniorLine, start with OPTIONS, which brings meals, home companions and help with bathing, dressing and housekeeping to residents 60 and over. The county's Caregiver Support Program helps Pennsylvanians 18 and older who are caring for a loved one, and its free Senior Companion Program is open to adults 60 and over.
Closer to home, the township runs a first-rate public library and a community center where its recreation department holds classes for residents, like the Creative Expressions adult art series. Nativity Senior Citizens is a senior citizens organization right in the township. Meals on Wheels volunteers bring meals to neighbors who need some help, and two local VFW posts keep veterans connected.
The county park, 2,013 acres shared by South Park Township and Bethel Park, sits right on the township's doorstep. A caregiver can come along for a slow walk, a picnic or an hour of fresh air whenever your loved one feels up to it.
Paying for Home Care in South Park
We accept Medicaid, Community Health Choices, private pay, VA benefits and long-term care insurance. Medicaid home care in South Park often runs through Community HealthChoices, and we work with all three plans: AmeriHealth Caritas, PA Health & Wellness and UPMC.
