Miller Personal Care Home sits at 1216 Perkiomen Avenue in Reading, PA, and is a residential care home offering a supportive and nurturing atmosphere where staff and residents value friendliness and compassion, so people who live there tend to notice the sense of community. The home's medium size, with 18 assisted living units, gives it a close-knit feel, and staff prepare nutritious, well-balanced meals daily with choices for people who have special diets like diabetes or allergies, and there's a community dining room for three meals a day. Residents can pick from a range of furnished rooms, with options including studio layouts, single rooms, two-bedroom units, memory care studios, as well as semi-private and private choices, all designed with privacy and safety in mind, featuring ADA-compliant private baths, grab bars, and emergency alert systems, so anyone needing a bit more help to get around or with daily tasks has that support close at hand. The facility provides 24-hour supervision and personal care services such as bathing, dressing, medication management, and mobility help, and has a dedicated team to assist with transfers and daily living activities-plus staff coordinate services with outside healthcare providers, perform routine health assessments, and support rehabilitation, Parkinson's care, and specialized memory care for residents with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia.
Move-in coordination helps new residents settle in, and people can expect full housekeeping, linen, and laundry services for comfort and convenience, while amenities like cable TV, WiFi, activity rooms, a beauty and barbershop, landscaped walking paths, a large library, snack shop, and a theater room round out daily living. There are computer classes, an entertainment room, fitness center, a spacious dining hall, game rooms, and a calendar of community-sponsored and offsite activities, so people have plenty of social, physical, and hobby programs to stay engaged. Transportation arrangements are available for doctor visits and medical appointments, plus complimentary transportation and guest parking, making it easier for residents and their visitors to come and go. There are also scheduled doctor visitations, nursing, wound care, podiatry, incontinence and diabetic care, and medication administration services, and for added safety, the property includes handicap features, sprinkler systems, and accessible gardens and walking paths. Residents get individualized care plans shaped by initial assessments, regular check-ins, and input from healthcare professionals as well as family, so that care matches each person's needs, and people who only need temporary or respite care can also find support here. The home encourages visits and recommends checking licensing and certification records before making decisions, and while prices aren't posted publicly, families can discuss options and choose what works best for their loved ones. Miller Personal Care Home tries to make daily life safe and comfortable for elders who want support without giving up privacy, independence, or activities that keep them connected to others.
