This resolution designates November 2025 as "Care at Home Month" in Pennsylvania, recognizing the critical role of home care, home health, and hospice professionals who support individuals with disabilities and the state's aging population. The resolution highlights the essential services these professionals provide, including assistance with daily living activities, medication management, meal preparation, mobility support, personal care, and transportation to medical appointments. It also emphasizes the importance of hospice care in providing compassionate end-of-life and palliative care, as well as skilled home health services like nursing and various therapies. The resolution notes that these professionals currently represent over 375,000 jobs in Pennsylvania, with a projected need for an additional 115,000 workers by 2030, and that more than 500,000 Pennsylvanians receive home-based care monthly. By designating this month, the resolution aims to honor and express gratitude for the dedication of home care professionals who help individuals of all ages live independent and full lives in their preferred setting.
