Penn Home

Penn Home offers seniors different levels of care, so you've got independent living if you want to do most things on your own, and then there's help when you need it, like assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, and skilled nursing care if you've got more complex health needs, and the folks here use special programs with names like Person-Centered, Informed Choice and Transition Protocol, My Move Plan Summary, and the Transition Protocol that help everyone feel supported and understood, and you can find help with daily activities, taking medicine, bathing, dressing, meal service, and all the personal care stuff, plus they have 24-hour supervision, call systems, and medication management. The skilled staff includes certified assessors and care teams who handle everything from skilled nurse visits to home health aides and therapies like physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapy, and they can do rehabilitation and wound care if someone's coming out of the hospital or needs ongoing support, and they've also got things like PCA and HCN care options, and their Waiver Management System helps make sure each resident's care plan is right for them, they pay attention to details with things like assessment and support planning, consumer safeguards, and backup plans if there's an emergency. Seniors can enjoy a maintenance-free lifestyle, independent living units that are furnished-including one-bedroom apartments-Wi-Fi, cable TV, and private or semi-private rooms, and if someone's in memory care, that area stays secure and has programs and activities like memory games for folks with dementia, with round-the-clock help and a lot of patience. The place gets lively with scheduled activities, both ones the residents run themselves and other community-sponsored events, and there's a mental wellness program to help residents stay sharp, plus there's a little library, walking paths, an outdoor garden, plus an arts room and barber or beauty salon, so folks can stay busy and social if they want, and you've got things like restaurant-style dining with special diets as needed, housekeeping to keep things tidy, and move-in coordination to help get settled, and if someone prefers smaller living, they've even got board and care homes in residential neighborhoods for a tighter-knit setting. Everything at Penn Home is focused on keeping seniors safe, as independent as possible, and well cared for, with staff always around to help in a warm, wheelchair accessible community.
