Now, we’re bringing that commitment to a new platform: Pristine Podcast.
Hosted by Pristine Home Care co-founder Dr. Keith George, this home care podcast brings together community leaders, experts, advocates, and people with stories worth sharing. The conversations are designed for families across Philadelphia, Allentown, Bethlehem, and the wider Lehigh Valley, whether or not they currently need home care services.
More Than Home Care: A Community Resource
The Pristine Podcast builds on work our team already does every day. Through our blog, monthly newsletter, social media, and community outreach, Pristine shares practical information about Pennsylvania’s Community HealthChoices (CHC) program, Medicaid-related home care questions, paid family caregiving, and local assistance programs.
Our resource guides also cover topics such as LIHEAP heating assistance, SNAP food benefits, and community services that matter to households throughout the region.
We believe useful information should be easier to find, easier to understand, and available to more people.
This new community podcast creates another way to have those conversations. Some episodes will focus on aging at home or family caregiving. Others will explore food access, wellness, local organizations, leadership, and the people making a difference in our neighborhoods.
Conversations Hosted by Dr. Keith George
As a co-founder of Pristine Home Care, Dr. Keith George understands that families often need more than a list of services. They need someone willing to listen, explain, and connect them with the right people.
On The Pristine Podcast, Dr. George sits down with guests for straightforward, engaging conversations about real challenges and practical solutions. The goal is to share perspectives that are useful to caregivers, older adults, people with disabilities, and neighbors looking for trustworthy community information.
First Episode: Food Is Medicine With Cindy Celi of Mom's Meals
The first episode features Cindy Celi of Mom’s Meals in a conversation about food insecurity, nutrition, and why access to a meal is not always the same as being able to prepare one.
Dr. Keith George and Celi discuss the challenges some people face when returning home from a hospital or care facility, the importance of culturally relevant food choices, and how home-delivered meal programs may fit into certain care plans. They also touch on Pennsylvania Medicaid waiver meal benefits, which depend on individual eligibility and authorization.
It’s one example of the wider conversations The Pristine Podcast will bring to listeners.
Rooted in Philadelphia. Growing Across the Lehigh Valley.
Pristine Home Care was built with a commitment to treating people with dignity and understanding the communities they call home. That commitment began in Philadelphia and continues as our presence grows across the Lehigh Valley, including our Allentown office on Union Boulevard.
Families don’t all speak the same language, share the same traditions, or face the same challenges. We want The Pristine Podcast to reflect that reality, with conversations that welcome Hispanic and multilingual households alongside the many other communities we serve.
