Home Care in Cranberry Township, PA

Why Cranberry Township Families Call Us

Cranberry Township has grown quickly over the past two decades into one of the most active communities north of Pittsburgh along Route 19 and I-79. Families here tend to be close-knit and fiercely independent — and when an aging parent starts needing a little extra help at home, the instinct is often to handle everything within the family.

We understand that completely. Mary Angels Home Care was built by a family, for families. We do not try to rush you into anything. We sit down, listen to what is going on, and talk honestly about what your mom or dad actually needs right now — not a package, not a sales pitch.

Our caregivers serve Cranberry Township and surrounding communities including Wexford, McCandless, the North Hills, and the broader Pittsburgh area. Because Cranberry Township sits just off I-79, our team can reach your parent's home quickly, and we stay familiar with local roads and neighborhoods.

Close to the Hospitals and Specialists Your Family Relies On

Many Cranberry Township families have loved ones who see specialists at UPMC Passavant in McCandless, AHN Wexford Hospital in Wexford, or travel down to UPMC Presbyterian or Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh for major procedures. After a hospital stay or procedure, returning home safely — and having reliable help in place — can make all the difference.

We work alongside your family's existing care team (doctors, discharge planners, and therapists) to make sure the non-medical side of recovery goes smoothly. We do not provide nursing or medical care, but we handle the daily support that lets your loved one rest and focus on healing at home rather than in a facility.

If your parent has just been discharged from AHN Wexford or UPMC Passavant, call us right away. We can often arrange an initial visit within 48 hours.

Paying for Home Care in Cranberry Township

Cost is one of the first questions families ask, and it is a fair one. Here is an honest breakdown of what to explore:

• Private pay — many families start here, paying out of pocket on a flexible hourly or daily basis.
• Long-term care insurance — if your loved one has a policy, it may cover home care. We can help you understand the claims process.
• PA Community HealthChoices (CHC) — Pennsylvania's Medicaid managed care program that may cover home care for qualifying seniors. Learn about the PA CHC Medicaid Waiver.
• VA Aid and Attendance — eligible veterans and surviving spouses may receive a benefit to help pay for home care. See our VA Aid and Attendance guide.
• Family caregiver compensation — in some cases, a family member can be paid to provide care under Pennsylvania programs. Get Paid to Care for a Family Member in PA.

Getting Started Is Simple

You do not need to have everything figured out before you call. Most families who reach us are in the middle of a stressful situation — a recent fall, a diagnosis, or a quiet sense that things at home are no longer safe. That is exactly when we want to hear from you.

Here is how it works:

1. Call or email us — 412-900-9354 or info@maryangelshomecare.com.
2. Free in-home assessment — one of our care coordinators visits your loved one's home in Cranberry Township, meets the family, and listens carefully.
3. Care plan — we put together a plan that fits your schedule, your budget, and your parent's preferences.
4. Caregiver match — we introduce a caregiver who is a good fit for your loved one's personality and needs.
5. Ongoing support — we stay in regular contact with your family and adjust the plan as needs change.

There is no obligation to continue after the assessment. We want you to feel confident, not cornered.
