You may be wondering: Is it time to bring in help at home? Maybe you’ve noticed small changes—missed meals, confusion, or more frequent falls—or maybe you're starting to feel overwhelmed managing everything yourself.

At Home Instead North Hills, we’ve helped more than 3,500 families across Allison Park, Wexford, Sewickley, and Ross Township recognize when it’s time—and how to move forward with confidence.

Here are common signs your loved one may benefit from in-home care:

• Missed medications or appointments
• Challenges with bathing, dressing, or mobility
• Increased forgetfulness or signs of memory loss
• Isolation or lack of engagement
• Caregiver stress, exhaustion, or worry
  
  

Our goal is to help your loved one stay independent at home—with just the right amount of support. Need help starting the conversation? Download our “What’s Next” Toolkit for signs to look for and tips for talking about care.

Every family is different—but if your loved one wants to remain at home, in-home care is often the most flexible and personalized solution.

• One-on-one attention from a dedicated Care Pro
• Familiar surroundings and daily routines stay intact
• Care adapts as needs change

With Home Instead North Hills, you get:

• Fully trained, background-checked employees
• No-hassle scheduling and local office support
• 24/7 availability with backup care when needed
• Peace of mind knowing everything is handled professionally
