Heatherwood Retirement Community sits just off Route 10 in Honey Brook, Pennsylvania, a few miles west on 322, and has personal care, independent living, assisted living, memory care, adult day care, skilled nursing, and rehab options so folks can stay even if their needs change, and you'll find spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, closets, emergency call systems, and controlled heat or air, and some have patios or balconies so you can enjoy the outdoors, with elevators making it easy to get around and safety bars in the accessible bathrooms, plus fire detection devices for extra peace of mind. Residents get housekeeping, laundry, linen, and apartment maintenance services, meaning you really don't have to worry about chores anymore, and there's scheduled transportation for shopping or other trips, along with general transportation services, which can lighten the load for folks who don't drive. Heatherwood has restaurant-style dining with a menu you can change up to suit your tastes; they pay attention to nutrition, so you'll find diabetic, low fat, and low salt meals on offer, and they really try to keep the food both healthy and satisfying, with the staff working hard to make dining a pleasant part of your day.
The community is pet-friendly, and you'll see plenty of outdoor spaces like patios, manicured gardens, balconies, and shaded pergolas; they've set things up so people who like being outside can enjoy themselves, and there are community rooms, lounges, and a library for quiet time indoors, plus spots for cards, billiards, and games.
