Home Care in Mt. Lebanon, PA

Why Mt. Lebanon Families Choose In-Home Care

Mt. Lebanon is one of Allegheny County's most established communities — tree-lined streets, close-knit neighborhoods, and a strong sense of pride in staying rooted here for decades. For many families, the goal is simple: keep Mom or Dad in the home they love for as long as it is safe and comfortable to do so.

That is exactly what non-medical in-home care is designed to do. A trained caregiver visits on a schedule that works for your family — a few hours each morning, full days, or around-the-clock live-in support — handling the everyday tasks that have become harder while your loved one keeps their independence.

Common reasons Mt. Lebanon families reach out to us include:

• A parent is recovering after a hospital discharge at UPMC St. Margaret or UPMC Presbyterian
• Dementia or Alzheimer's symptoms are progressing and a family caregiver needs a break
• An older adult lives alone and the family worries about safety, falls, or missed meals
• A son or daughter lives out of state and needs a trusted local partner on the ground

Services We Bring to Mt. Lebanon Homes

Our caregivers provide a full range of non-medical support. We do not provide nursing, medical treatment, or clinical services — but we cover nearly everything else that keeps daily life running smoothly and safely.

• Personal care — bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting assistance (personal care details)
• Companion care — conversation, games, errands, and simply being present (companion care details)
• Homemaker services — light housekeeping, laundry, grocery shopping, and meal preparation
• Respite care — planned breaks for family caregivers who need time to recharge
• Alzheimer's and dementia care — structured routines, safety supervision, and calm reassurance (learn more)
• 24/7 and live-in care — continuous support for higher-need situations
• Transportation — rides to doctors' offices, the Mt. Lebanon Library, the South Hills Village, or family visits
• Chronic disease care — day-to-day support for families managing conditions such as Parkinson's, diabetes, or heart failure

Every care plan is tailored. We start with a free, no-pressure in-home assessment so we understand your parent's routines, preferences, and personality before we ever send a caregiver through the door.

A Local Agency That Knows the South Hills

Mary Angels Home Care is based in Pittsburgh, and we know the South Hills well. Whether your family is in the Beverly Road corridor, Castle Shannon Boulevard, or closer to the Washington Road shops, our caregivers are familiar with the area and can navigate it reliably.

We also understand how local health systems connect. Families often need care after a procedure at St. Clair Health or a stay at UPMC Mercy. We work alongside your loved one's existing medical team — following any instructions they provide — while handling the non-medical, daily living side of recovery and ongoing care.

If you have a neighbor or friend who also needs help, we serve nearby communities including Bethel Park, Dormont, Upper St. Clair, and Pleasant Hills.

Understanding How to Pay for Care

Cost is one of the first questions families ask, and it is a completely fair one. Here is an honest overview:

• Private pay — families pay directly, hourly or on a weekly basis
• Long-term care insurance — many policies cover non-medical home care; we can help you understand what documentation insurers typically need
• Pennsylvania's Community HealthChoices (CHC) Medicaid waiver — qualifying seniors may receive home care services at little or no out-of-pocket cost through CHC
• Veterans benefits — eligible veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Aid and Attendance benefit, which can offset care costs significantly

Our team is happy to walk through payment options with you during the free assessment. We never want cost to be a barrier to getting a parent the help they need. You can also explore our full guide on how to pay for home care in Pittsburgh.
