24/7 Home Care Services
Aurora Home Care provides flexible 24/7 home care support for families in Philadelphia, Reading, Lancaster, and nearby communities, including evenings, nights, weekends, and holidays. Our team remains available at all times to help coordinate services and adjust care plans as needs change.
All caregivers complete required Pennsylvania background checks and clearances before providing care and work in full compliance with state regulations. We also follow Pennsylvania protective-services reporting requirements for older and vulnerable adults in cases of suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation.
WHAT DOES 24/7 HOME CARE MEAN?
At Aurora Home Care, 24/7 home care refers to availability and flexibility, not guaranteed continuous or insurance-covered care throughout the day and night.
Families may benefit from:
- Flexible scheduling for day and night care
- Adjustments to home care services as needs change
- Support coordination at any hour
Unlike hospice or inpatient settings, continuous care is not typically provided in the home without private arrangements.
INSURANCE COVERAGE AND PAYMENT CLARITY
Understanding coverage is essential when planning
24-hour assistance:
- Personal home care services. Waiver programs may approve a limited number of hours. Additional or extended around-the-clock caregiving is typically private pay.
- Home health care. Medical services such as skilled nursing are provided on an intermittent, physician-ordered basis and are not continuous care.
Aurora Home Care helps families clearly understand coverage, costs, and available care services and when services are funded through Medicaid waivers or Managed Care Organizations, final decisions about covered hours and eligibility are made by the program or MCO, not by Aurora Home Care.
MULTILINGUAL IN-HOME CARE SERVICES
We know that straightforward communication in your chosen language builds trust and comfort. Our staff
speaks 12 languages, so your loved one will get culturally appropriate care.
No matter the topic: health, daily habits, or family stories — language shouldn’t hinder compassionate, competent home care.
WHO MAY BENEFIT FROM EXTENDED-HOUR HOME CARE?
Extended-hour or full-time caregiving may support:
Seniors recovering from hospitalization
After discharge, extended-hour care provides consistent in-home support to help seniors regain strength safely and maintain daily routines without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
Individuals with chronic conditions
Long-shift care ensures ongoing assistance with personal needs, monitoring of comfort, and routine stability, which can reduce stress and help manage symptoms day by day.
Seniors living alone who need added safety
When family cannot be present, extended-hour caregivers help create a safer environment, offer mobility support, and reduce the risk of accidents while preserving independence.
Families managing complex schedules
Full-shift home care fills coverage gaps during work hours, travel, or overlapping responsibilities, helping families stay organized without sacrificing quality support for their loved one.
Evening & Night Confusion Care
Extended-hour care can provide reassurance, calm redirection, and companionship during later hours, helping reduce anxiety and maintain a sense of security at home.
OVERNIGHT AND
AROUND-THE-CLOCK CARE
Some families ask about overnight or 24-hour caregiving when safety or supervision is a concern.
In general, this may involve:
- Scheduled nighttime or extended shifts
- Increased availability rather than constant presence
- Private pay arrangements when hours exceed approvals
Availability depends on assessment and caregiver scheduling.
Home Health Care Coordination
When medically appropriate, Aurora’s home health care division provides skilled nursing and therapy services ordered by a physician. These services are coordinated separately from non-medical home care and are not continuous.
