Our Homemaker Services
We offer exceptional homemaker services to our clients as part of Impactful Home Care agency’s wide range of home care services. This hands-on, non-medical assistance relieves you from the stress of daily living chores.
While our personal care services focus on helping with a client’s daily appearance, our homemaker services deal with non-medical assistance, concentrating on supporting you with household chores and activities of daily living.
Understanding that many Philadelphians need this service, we strive to make this care accessible. These services may be covered by a variety of payment methods, including the Pennsylvania Caregiver Support Program, the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (a Medicaid state program), veteran benefits, and select private insurance plans.
