What this license means. A personal care home (PCH) is a residence licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS) that provides lodging, meals, and help or supervision with daily living to four or more adults who are not related to the operator. It is for people who need support with tasks such as eating, bathing, personal hygiene, dressing, or managing their health care, but who do not need the services of a nursing home, which is a medical facility. Each home must have a written description of the services it offers; it is worth asking for it.
