Advantage Home Care in the Bronx: Trusted In-Home Care for Your Family
From Riverdale to Co-op City, Advantage Home Care helps Bronx families keep their loved ones safe and independent at home β with trained local caregivers and a team that handles Medicaid and the paperwork.
- Advantage Home Care provides in-home care throughout the Bronx, the borough with the highest share of seniors relying on home care in NYC.
- We offer personal care aides, home health aides, waiver support, and care coordination β through Medicaid or private pay.
- Our Bronx caregivers come from the communities they serve, and our team manages the Medicaid enrollment for you.
The Bronx has one of the largest populations of older adults relying on home care of any borough in New York City β and navigating that care takes local knowledge. Advantage Home Care brings both: trained caregivers who live in and understand Bronx communities, and a team that handles the Medicaid and enrollment details so families can focus on their loved one.
Home Care Services We Provide in the Bronx
We match each family with the right level of support:
Serving Bronx Neighborhoods
Our caregivers support families across the borough, including Riverdale, Kingsbridge, Fordham, Belmont, Morris Park, Pelham Bay, Throggs Neck, Parkchester, Soundview, Co-op City, Wakefield, and beyond. Because our aides come from these neighborhoods, we can match caregivers who speak your family’s language β Spanish, Bengali, Albanian, and more β and who know the community your loved one calls home.
Why Bronx Families Choose Us
Caregivers who stay. We work to keep the same aide with your family, so your loved one builds trust with someone familiar rather than a rotating series of strangers.
We handle Medicaid and MLTC. The enrollment process is one of the biggest hurdles to getting care started. Our team guides Bronx families through Medicaid approval and MLTC plan selection and handles the paperwork.
Coordination that continues. A dedicated coordinator stays involved as needs change, so you always have someone to call.

How Bronx Families Pay for Care
Most families receive care through New York Medicaid, typically via an MLTC plan that authorizes weekly aide hours β and many qualify who assume they can’t. For those who don’t qualify or need care immediately, private pay home care offers flexible scheduling that can start within days. We’ll help you find the right path.
