🧠💙 Supporting Safety, Dignity, and Peace of Mind

Wandering is a common and often misunderstood part of dementia. In fact, many individuals living with dementia may wander at some point—not because they want to leave, but because they’re trying to communicate a need, follow a familiar routine, or make sense of their surroundings.

For families and caregivers, this can bring understandable worry and exhaustion. You’re not alone—and there are ways to create a safer, more supportive environment.

This graphic shares practical, compassionate steps to help:
✔️ Understand why wandering happens
✔️ Make simple home modifications for safety
✔️ Create an emergency plan that brings peace of mind

At Legacy Home Care, we believe safety should always go hand in hand with dignity, connection, and understanding. Supporting someone with dementia means looking beyond behaviors and meeting them with patience and care—mind, body, and spirit.

💬 If you’re caring for a loved one with dementia, what has helped bring you the most peace of mind?

🎉 Happy New Year from Legacy Home Care! 🎉

As we step into a brand new year, we’re taking a moment to reflect with grateful hearts. 💙
This past year was filled with meaningful moments — shared laughter, quiet conversations, small victories, and the everyday acts of care that truly matter.

The New Year is a beautiful time to pause, look back, and look ahead — especially with the loved ones who mean the most to us. Whether it’s setting goals, sharing memories, or simply asking, “What do you hope for this year?” — these conversations can be so powerful, especially for those aging in place.

✨ As we welcome the year ahead, our hope is simple:
More connection.
More comfort.
More moments spent together at home and in the community we love.

💬 We’d love to hear from you:
What’s one word or goal you’re carrying into the New Year — for yourself or a loved one?

Here’s to a year filled with care, compassion, and new beginnings.
Happy New Year from all of us at Legacy Home Care! 💛

If we handled our jobs the same way Pennsylvania handles budget negotiations… 😬

Home care hasn’t seen a meaningful reimbursement increase in years — and caregivers and families are paying the price.

Caregiving needs an increase. And it needs it now. 💙

📣 URGENT: Pennsylvania’s Budget Overlooked Home Care — Again.
🎬 And This Documentary Shows Exactly Why It Matters.

Pennsylvania’s new budget may have passed, but it severely overlooked the caregiving workforce that keeps seniors safe at home.

👉 94% of home care workers received NO wage increase.
👉 Only participant-directed caregivers (about 6% of the workforce) received the $21M wage boost.
👉 Meanwhile, over 112,500 home care shifts go unfilled every month because wages are too low to recruit and keep caregivers.
👉 Pennsylvania still reimburses agencies only $20.63/hour — far below surrounding states like West Virginia.

This is why families struggle to find care.
This is why caregivers are burning out.
This is why agencies are fighting to stay open.

And now a powerful PBS documentary — produced by Bradley Cooper, who knows this crisis personally — shines a light on what’s truly happening behind closed doors.

🎬 Watch “Caregiving” FREE on PBS:
👉 https://www.pbs.org/video/caregiving/

This film exposes the heartbreaking reality of caregiving: the love, the exhaustion, the sacrifice, and the broken systems that constantly fail both caregivers and families.

Our caregivers are heroes. They deserve better — and so do the communities they serve.

📣 After you watch, take action:
🗣 Tag Governor Shapiro
📍 Tag your local legislators
✍️ Tell them Pennsylvania MUST invest in home care.
The longer we wait, the more people go without essential care.

We couldn’t agree more—our caregivers are the heart of our communities, providing compassionate care every single day. 💙 But as the Lt. Governor said, words alone aren’t enough. It’s time for real support and funding for the heroes who give so much of themselves.

At todays Direct Care Worker of the Year Awards the Lt. Governor Austin Davis shared a video message to Pennsylvania’s caregivers: “Direct care workers are extraordinary. They are the unsung heroes of our Commonwealth.”

PHA agrees, Lt. Governor. But words alone do not pay the bills. 94% of Pennsylvania’s caregivers were left out of this year’s budget. It's time to honor these Direct Care Workers work with funding that matches your words.
