Bethlehem In-Home Care Costs and VA Benefits
No Bethlehem-only figure is published, so the benchmark is the Pennsylvania median of $6,483 a month for 44 hours a week, about $34 an hour (CareScout 2025). Bethlehem agencies usually set a minimum shift, often three or four hours, so ask before you plan a short visit. Before applying, review VA’s income and asset rules so the in-home care bill is counted the right way.
