UNSPSC 42330109: Personal Care

Kits containing Personal Care products (ie toothpaste, lotions).

UNSPSC 42330109 Personal Care (Commodity) covers in-home assistance with activities of daily living, emergency response systems, and specialized care for vulnerable populations—specifically, state and local governments are procuring bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transfer assistance, medication administration, and light housekeeping for older adults; electronic personal emergency response devices and 24-hour monitoring for seniors at fall risk; in-home respite care for families with disabled or developmentally delayed infants and toddlers; and residential care with case management and independent living skills training for transitional-age youth in state custody. Issuing bodies span county aging services departments (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania), county human services agencies (Boulder County, Colorado), state children and youth agencies (Washington State Department of Children, Youth & Families), and county public health departments (Boulder County Public Health). Representative recent solicitations include Montgomery County's RFP 26-07 for Older Adult Personal Care Services (in-home ADL assistance at $27 per hour, proposals due April 8, 2026), Montgomery County's RFP 26-08 for Personal Emergency Response System services (fixed $30 monthly per device, proposals due April 8, 2026), Boulder County's solicitation for Respite Care Providers for infants and toddlers with special needs (maximum $28,500 contract, proposals due March 23, 2026), and Washington DCYF's RFQ 26DCYFCW104 for an Adolescent Transitional Living Program in Region 6 (rate-based at $13,137 per bed monthly, responses due August 20, 2026, with 5% bid preference for compliance with Executive Order 18-03, 10% for Washington Small Businesses, and 10% for Certified Veteran-Owned Businesses).

Recent activity concentrates in Pennsylvania, Colorado, and Washington, with Montgomery County appearing in multiple solicitations. The code shows active procurement across the Pacific Northwest and Mountain West, with Pennsylvania counties dominating the lower-acuity aging services segment. Boulder County has issued multiple related solicitations for therapeutic services and evaluations (SOQ-263-26 and SOQ-262-26, both due April 7, 2026) that appear tangentially related to personal care through case management and family support roles, though these fall more directly under mental health and counseling rather than hands-on personal care delivery. Across all recent opportunities, state and local buyers emphasize trauma-informed and culturally competent service delivery, background check compliance, comprehensive liability and professional insurance, and performance metrics tied to service initiation timelines and adherence to approved service plans.
