Canterbury Place

Canterbury Place offers different types of care, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Home Care, Adult Day Services, Long-Term Care, Skilled Nursing, Home Health Care, and Hospice Care, and folks can find short-term rehabilitation beds on two floors for those who need help recovering from surgery, like after a double bypass or just need to regain some strength before heading home, and there's a team of certified nurse practitioners, registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants on the property along with physical, occupational, and speech therapy services too, and because the facility's tied to UPMC, residents can get access to a variety of health services such as heart and vascular, neurosciences, endocrinology, cancer care, and more, plus walk-in care, imaging, outpatient services, and even dental and mental health help if needed. Canterbury Place has 42 units, including studio and one-bedroom apartments, with private and semi-private room options, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and telephone, so there's a good spread for different preferences and needs, and move-in coordination, housekeeping, laundry, and dry-cleaning are all available along with concierge and family support. The activities team organizes daily programs, music and arts, movie nights at the in-house theater, fitness and game rooms, walking paths in the gardens, resident lounges for socializing, and there's scheduled transportation and guest parking. Residents can join in on restorative programs too, like walking and exercise, or spend time in the library or wellness room. There's a professional chef for meal preparation handling special diets-gluten-free, allergy-sensitive, diabetes, and other restrictions-and there are options for private dining experiences on different floors. Safety is taken seriously with wheelchair accessibility, controlled access, a fire and emergency system, and round-the-clock staff who offer medication management, bathing and dressing assistance, transfer help, non-ambulatory care, and a 24-hour call system. Canterbury Place supports secure memory care for those who need it and also has a skilled and intermediate care facility for residents who require physical assistance, meaning folks can stay as their care needs change. The connection to UPMC brings in extra support like patient and visitor resources, a health library, patient portals, and access to regional outpatient centers, hospitals, and physical therapy facilities, and management is provided by Oakdale Seniors Alliance. The place is licensed for personal care in PA (AL License # 429490), with a capacity of 78 beds in Florida, and accepts private pay, with pricing based on the level of care a resident needs. The environment's comfortable and home-like, the staff strive to be compassionate though, like most places, service can vary, and the property includes guest parking, controlled entry, and both furnished and unfurnished apartments, so Canterbury Place covers many of the needs a senior or family looking for care might have, running as a continuing care retirement community where folks can age on their own terms while getting the help they need.
