Senior Care and Elder Care Services in Delaware County
When someone you love needs extra help at home, the right support can make all the difference. At Home Instead, we provide senior care that goes beyond meeting basic needs. Our mission is to enrich lives, foster independence, and bring peace of mind to families throughout Delaware County.
We understand that each person has a lifetime of experiences, preferences, and routines. Our elder care services are designed to honor those qualities while offering the assistance necessary to remain safe and comfortable at home.
Personalized Senior Care for Every Individual
Senior care should never be one-size-fits-all. That is why we take time to learn about each client’s needs, health concerns, and personal interests before creating a tailored care plan. For some, this means daily visits for personal care. For others, it might be weekly companionship, help with errands, or assistance following a hospital discharge.
Whether we are helping with meal preparation, offering reminders for medication, or simply sharing conversation over coffee, our Care Pros approach every task with kindness and respect.
What We Offer
Our services provide the kind of elder care that helps seniors maintain independence while giving families reassurance. We offer:
- Personal Care Assistance – Bathing, grooming, dressing, and toileting with dignity and compassion.

Why Families Choose Home Instead
Families choose Home Instead because we combine professional skill with a personal touch. Every Care Pro on our team is trained, compassionate, and committed to providing consistent, high-quality care.
Taylor Marcinko experienced this firsthand when seeking help for her grandmother:
"I needed care for my grandmother who lived in Glen Mills desperately and I was able to find just the support I needed from the Delaware County Home Instead.
The caregivers demonstrated a level of expertise and dedication that put our mind at ease. Their deep understanding of senior care was evident in everything they did, from medication management to daily activities and companionship. They treated our family member with the utmost respect and kindness, making a genuine connection that was heart warming to witness."
This is the kind of trust we strive to build with every family we serve.
A Team That Cares
Our Care Pros are more than caregivers, they are companions, advocates, and a source of reassurance. Many joined this profession after caring for loved ones themselves, which gives them unique insight into the needs of seniors and the concerns of families.
Our team is recognized not only for their skills but also for their dedication, as celebrated through our Care Pro Awards.
Connecting You to Resources
We believe elder care is strongest when it connects to the broader community. That is why we often refer families to organizations like the Delaware County Office of Services for the Aging, which offers valuable programs and information for older adults and their families. We also maintain close ties with local healthcare systems and senior centers.
A Typical Day with Home Instead
A day with one of our Care Pros might begin with preparing breakfast and offering medication reminders. The morning could include light housekeeping or helping your loved one get ready for an outing. In the afternoon, they might attend a medical appointment, enjoy a visit to the park, or simply spend time sharing stories.
Every moment is approached with patience and respect, because the small things, a smile, a conversation, a shared memory, often have the biggest impact.
