West Side Kozy Comfort Personal Care sits quietly in Scranton and offers long-term care for seniors who want a place that feels like home and still need some extra help every day, and while West Side Kozy Comfort Personal Care doesn't take Medicare unless certified, it does have a state license as a Personal Care Home with the number #204490, and there are 36 beds in total, some in private, shared, or studio rooms, so everyone can choose what suits them best. Residents find help with things like dressing, bathing, hygiene, using the bathroom, and transferring from beds to wheelchairs, and staff stay up and alert 24 hours a day in case something happens or emergencies pop up, and there's a call system and supervision round-the-clock. People with memory issues, those needing assisted living, respite stays, or hospice support also have space and care, with special attention for residents dealing with health issues like diabetes or high blood pressure, and caregivers help with monitoring insulin when needed, plus handling incontinence care, mobility support, and medication management.
Meals get prepared fresh three times a day, and there's a dining room set up for meals anytime with special diets, allergies, and diabetic needs in mind, and if someone wants a haircut, a mobile hairdresser comes, or there's a barber and beauty shop there, which can feel like a simple comfort. The place aims for a warm, calming environment where residents can relax, join in social events, play board games, take part in music or pet therapy, and there are regular movie nights, fitness programs, creative activities, and devotional programs-so there's almost always something to do. The community tries to make travel easier by offering transportation arrangements for medical appointments, errands, or religious services, and there's a garden, hot tub, steam room, library, reading room, and indoor common spaces set up for socializing or just sitting quietly.
Staff pay close attention to safety, with background checks, reference checks, drug screenings, and more, so people know those caring for them are checked and ready, and light housekeeping and laundry, including dry cleaning, keep things tidy. The Kozy Comfort Personal Care community's focus stays on individual needs, so whether someone needs a lot of help walking, getting dressed, eating, or just wants support being part of a friendly, social place, the staff's used to helping out, and they've been doing it for senior elders in the Scranton area for a while now, aiming to keep things comfortable, familiar, and supportive as people age.
