What is Community Choice?

Community Choice is a new way to help older adults and people with disabilities of all ages to enroll in Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) within three days if needed. The Community Choice process allows people to stay in their homes and avoid going into Long Term Care Facilities (LTCF) by giving them faster access to services. Community Choice is also available to people who are moving from Long Term Care Facilities back into their communities. Currently, Community Choice is available only in the following Pennsylvania counties: Allegheny, Chester, Delaware, Cumberland, Dauphin, Fayette, Greene, Lancaster, Montgomery, Perry, Philadelphia and Washington.

If you need services quickly to avoid nursing home placement, call Liberty Resources at (215) 634-2000 and ask for Community Choice. Read more about alternatives to nursing home placement.
