Providence Place Senior Living of Chambersburg sits among green farmlands in south central Pennsylvania, just off Wayne Avenue Exit from I-81, with 17 wooded acres for watching wildlife or strolling along walking trails, and you'll spot that the building's pet-friendly, so pets can be a part of daily life too, which is nice for folks who don't want to leave them behind, and you get choices for apartments-efficiency studios, suites, and some even have full kitchens, which makes it feel more like a home. People live here independently, while others get personal care or memory care, with two levels of Alzheimer's and dementia care support depending on each person's need; all apartments have Direct TV access, free Wi-Fi, and options for singles, couples, or sharing with others, and rent is all-inclusive, which makes paying bills simpler because it includes things like meals and utilities.
Staff includes licensed nurses and trained medication associates who are available at all times-day and night-plus there's an emergency call system in every apartment with pendants for added peace of mind. There's free transportation for medical appointments and worship, and staff go along on trips to restaurants, stores, and area attractions, which folks tend to enjoy as a break from the ordinary, and for those needing to recover or get stronger, there's a modern therapy suite where occupational, physical, and speech therapies happen right on site.
Meals come three times a day in a spacious dining room, freshly made by the Dining Director and staff who sample recipes, ask residents for suggestions, and cook often-requested meals or special event dishes-homemade soup seems to be a favorite, and dining associates try to be courteous and helpful during mealtimes. Around the building, you'll find an on-site chapel, a library, a game room, and a café for coffee or snacks, and there's a beauty and barber shop where you can get your hair cut or styled without leaving the community. Residents can join exercise groups focused on balance, baking club, craft sessions, musical events, art groups, and community volunteer opportunities, so there's always something going on each week, and a community newsletter keeps people up to date.
Housekeeping, laundry, linen changes, and maintenance are included, and the outside gardens get used for field trips and events when the weather's nice, especially for folks who like to be outdoors for a little while. Providence Place offers more than just short-term stays or rehabilitation services-there are lots of living options and help available if health needs change, with personalized care that adapts over time. English is spoken, and staff welcome pets as part of the family. The community's been family-owned since 1998, belongs to the Providence Place Senior Living group, and sits at 2085 Wayne Road, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. The monthly cost starts at $3,670 and covers a lot of what most seniors need day-to-day, and the focus is always on helping people feel comfortable, safe, and part of a supportive community where residents help define what makes it home.
