INTERVENTION ASSOCIATES is a nonprofit Quaker-based organization that provides professional care management and legal guardianship services for people of all ages with all kinds of conditions—even the most complex diseases and disabilities. A subsidiary of the Friends Life Care System, Intervention Associates is one of the oldest and most trusted firms of its kind serving the greater Philadelphia area.

Stepping in to Help

When someone is elderly, chronically ill or suffers from another condition that makes self-care difficult, he or she may require assistance that you are unable or untrained to provide. Intervention Associates can step in to help. We've been navigating the health care system to help families and professionals maximize independence and improve quality of life for their special loved ones or clients for more than 25 years.

Our care managers professionally assess the person in need and prepare an individualized care plan that may include help with the activities of daily living, such as eating and bathing; grocery shopping; patient advocacy; or even social companionship. We arrange for these and related services through our sister company Caring Friends Home Care* to ensure the best continuity of care, or through another certified home care agency, upon request, then we oversee and monitor all the services provided.
