Caring for Seniors with Chronic Illnesses in and Near Havertown, PA
When a loved one develops a chronic condition, it can be difficult for family caregivers to provide the proper care they need to remain at home. However, most seniors value their independence despite health-related challenges.

What Does “Chronic Illness” Mean?
Chronic illnesses last for over a year and require ongoing medical attention. These conditions can significantly impact the way an individual lives, making everyday tasks more difficult.
