Three Decades of Setting the Standard 

Since 1996, Emerald Home Health has been Western Pennsylvania’s trusted partner for exceptional care at home. 

Built on Excellence,
Growing with Purpose

For 30 years, Emerald Home Health has served Pittsburgh-area families with a simple commitment: deliver clinical excellence with genuine compassion, in the place where people are most comfortable—home.

What started in 1996 as a vision to provide exceptional home health services has grown into Western Pennsylvania’s comprehensive home care provider, offering both skilled medical services and personal care support across five counties.

In 2026, healthcare entrepreneur Binoy Cherian acquired Emerald Home Health, bringing new investment, strategic vision, and growth momentum while honoring the legacy and values that built this company. Today, we’re combining three decades of community expertise with modern systems and expanded capabilities.

We don’t just deliver care. We set the Emerald
Standard of Care.
