Hemsley House of Upper St. Clair

Hemsley House of Upper St. Clair sits in a convenient spot near the South Hills Village T station, which makes it easy for visitors or residents to get around, and it's close to a bunch of recreation centers, shopping, dining, and medical places too, so folks get what they need without going far. This place offers several types of care, like independent living for seniors who don't need much help, assisted living for those who need support with things like dressing or bathing, and memory care designed to help people with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, so everyone gets the care level that fits best, and when things change, they can usually stay right where they are thanks to the range of services. Staff go through training to give compassionate and supportive care, and every resident gets a personal plan that fits their needs, so each person feels looked after in a way that makes sense to them, whether they need medication reminders, help with daily activities, or more involved nursing services. The building's set up with safety features like a gated facility, secured courtyards for memory care, and options for private or semi-private rooms, which adds a layer of peace of mind for families and residents, especially when memory care is needed, because there are 27 dedicated memory care units and everything meets licensed requirements for safety. The whole place brings together tradition, charm, and modern amenities, with spots like a fireplace and bistro where folks can socialize or relax, plus lounges, decks, and porches that invite people to spend time together, whether playing games, doing arts and crafts, joining music programs, going on field trips, or just chatting. Room options range from studios to two-bedrooms, with some having kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, cable, and private dining areas, and there's guest parking and laundry services so things stay comfortable. A part-time nurse is on staff for health services, personal care home licensing covers the specialized memory care, and religious services are offered on site. Gold Leaf Dining serves up meals that focus on quality and nutrition, and folks who just want extra help or a short-term stay can choose respite care or companion services. The whole setup works toward giving independence, wellness, and meaningful connections as needs change, and it's won awards for its staff's kindness and for providing a welcoming place where people truly care for each other.
