Community services for all types of needs.

You want to live in your own home, but you also need some help to do it. Lutheran SeniorLife offers a variety of options that allow you to remain independent, as well as safe, healthy, social and supported.

Home Health Care and Hospice

Does your loved one need a little extra help living at home? Lutheran SeniorLife offers Home Health, Health Care, and Hospice services through the Visiting Nurses Association and BeHome Partners®.

Home Health Care
An independent lifestyle in the comfort of your own home is the goal of Visiting Nurses Association’s home health program. For homebound individuals with new or chronic health issues, VNA can provide skilled services on an intermittent basis to meet your needs and your personal goals while keeping you out of the hospital. The VNA commitment to Abundant Life® through health, wellness and social services, means families can live each day with purpose and meaning.

Hospice
Hospice care is the provision of physical, emotional, and spiritual care to those facing a life-limiting illness. Compassionate hospice providers discuss and explore individual healthcare options allowing participants to make decisions to remain comfortable and reach their personal goals. Earlier admission to hospice has improved quality of life and affords the blessing of more quality time with loved ones.

Services are available in the following counties Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Lawrence, Mercer, and northwest Westmoreland.
