Home Care Services
Our licensed caregivers deliver thoughtful, individualized support — from personal care to community-based assistance — wherever our clients call home.
Personal Assistance Services (PAS)
Personal Assistance Services are non-medical, hands-on support services that help individuals with daily living activities they might otherwise struggle to do on their own due to age, disability, or illness.
Our caregivers are matched to each client's personality, language preference, and care needs. Services are delivered according to a written, individualized plan of care — reviewed and updated as needs change.
What PAS May Include
- Bathing, dressing, and grooming assistance
- Mobility support and transfer assistance
- Meal preparation and dietary support
- Light housekeeping related to client care
- Companionship and safety supervision
- Errand assistance and accompaniment
Exact services covered depend on the client's plan of care and payer authorization. Contact us to confirm what's available for your situation.

Important Notes
Scope of Services
Lone Star Health Services does not provide skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or other medical/clinical services. We provide non-medical personal assistance and community support. Clients needing clinical care should ask their physician for a home health agency referral.
Authorization Required
Services delivered under Medicaid managed care programs require prior authorization from the client's managed care organization (MCO). We work with families and case managers to facilitate this process. Please call us to understand current authorization requirements.
Individualized Plans of Care
Every client receives a written plan of care outlining the specific services to be provided, the frequency of visits, and any special instructions. This plan is developed collaboratively and updated as the client's needs evolve.
