Long Term Care Services for Serious Illnesses at Home
For over 25 years, Allied Services In-Home Services has been providing
home and community-based services to assist persons with disabilities
and older adults with activities of daily living. Allied Services In-Home
Services is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health as a home
care agency.
Our mission is to promote independent living for individuals in our community.
The Independent Living (IL) philosophy is a worldwide movement of people
with disabilities and older adults working for self-determination, self-respect
and equal opportunities.
We are here to help you overcome challenges and reach your highest level
of independence by providing quality, person-centered services in your home.
Services offered include:
Homemaker Services – Tasks such as shopping, laundry, light housekeeping, and meal preparation.
Personal Assistance Services – Assistance with self-administered medications, feeding, bathing, grooming,
assistance with ambulation, toileting, transfer activities. Eligible adults
under the age of 60, who are mentally alert and physically disabled, live
as independently as possible in their own homes and seek or maintain employment.
Respite Care – Personal Care and assistance with IADLs provided on a short term basis
because of the absence or need for relief for those persons normally providing
the services.
Activities of Daily Living (ADL) – Tasks that we perform in the normal routine of the day, such as feeding,
bathing, dressing, and grooming ourselves. The ability to perform these
tasks can be used as a measure of ability/ disability in many disorders.
Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) – The activities often performed by a person who is living independently
in a community setting during the course of a normal day, such as managing
money, shopping, telephone use, housekeeping, preparing meals, and taking
medications correctly.
Independent Living Philosophy – System of beliefs, concepts, and attitudes that emphasize self-direction,
control, peer support, and community integration for individuals with
disabilities.
