About Home Helpers In-home Supportive Services in Bethlehem, Allentown, and Quakertown, PA

Our Home Helpers office began with an initial vision by our partner, Frank Esterle, who, in the year 2000, was inspired to provide invaluable in-home supportive services to his community. After the sudden loss of his father, Frank and his brother-in-law, Greg Scheck, saw firsthand the impact of difficult times on families, especially devastated spouses. They understood the immediate and critical need for quality home care services for people going through a time of transition, whether it be after a tragedy, during a medical setback or onset of chronic disease, recovering from injury, initiating hospice care, or simply establishing in-home care to age in place safely.

Frank and Greg boldly decided in 2004 to quit their full-time careers and launch a Home Helpers home care agency, serving Central Bucks, Eastern and Central Montgomery Counties, and Northeast Philadelphia. In late 2008, the pair welcomed a partner, Tom Krupp, a neighboring franchisee who served Western Montgomery County, Upper and Lower Bucks County, and the Southern Lehigh Valley. Tom had similarly taken a bold and passionate step into entrepreneurship two years before serving his community after a personal family experience with caregiving services. In 2010, the three partners expanded further into the Lehigh Valley and later added Roxborough and Chestnut Hill.

Today, Frank, Greg, and Tom operate one of the system’s most prominent Home Helpers offices while maintaining their commitment to “boutique” quality care. From the onset, they sought to be the region’s premier provider of in-home supportive services. They recognized the need for clinical experience because of the growing understanding of the clients served. Our agency follows a localized team approach to client service and caregiver management, and each “client care team” includes a dedicated owner, Registered or Licensed Practical Nurses, a Relationship Manager (with a background in social work), professional staffing coordinators, and experienced on-call caregivers. Our leading Lansdale office houses centralized departments, including Human Resources and Staff Development, Accounting and Finance, IT, and Operations. Our satellite offices include Newtown, Bucks County, Bethlehem, and Northampton County in the Lehigh Valley.

We welcome the opportunity to deliver remarkable care to our valued clients when they need it most. We aim to provide in-home supportive services like family would when they cannot be there. We seek to make lives easier for our clients (and, of course, their families), whom we are so fortunate to serve. Perhaps we might help you!
