Church of God Home sits in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and has a range of care from independent living and personal care to assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and even short-term rehabilitation, so folks can find support in different stages of aging, and apartments vary in size, some with nice touches like balconies, stoves, washers and dryers, and extra storage, which can be handy for those wanting to keep little comforts around, and the health care center there has both private and semi-private rooms with basics covered like utilities, towels, linens, housekeeping, and maintenance, so residents don't have to think about chores if they'd rather not. The staff really seem to care and work to keep everyone safe, comfortable, and engaged both mentally and physically, from daily activities to therapy services, and if someone needs help with things like getting dressed or moving around, the care team is ready, whether it's in assisted living, Creekside apartments, or the secured memory care unit.
Meals come three times a day, prepared by a chef and served in a recently updated dining room, and between meals, residents can join group activities like gardening, walking trails, theater trips, sightseeing, spiritual gatherings, and day trips around town, or just relax in the calm outdoor areas or a visitor lounge, which is helpful for family get-togethers especially in the short-term rehab part of the building. For those wanting spiritual support, chaplain visits and faith-based care are part of daily life, and the care team pays close attention to dignity, independence, and each person's needs with personalized plans, so there's comfort for those who value a sense of routine and purpose.
Healthcare services are broad, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, tracheostomy care, rehabilitation, nursing, skilled and intermediate care, all with a focus on safety and well-being, plus the place is licensed by the Pennsylvania Departments of Health, Welfare, and Insurance, and is Medicare and Medicaid certified, which means a lot to folks who want peace of mind about their options as needs or health change. There are 109 beds available, and payments can work with private pay, private insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, and for the apartments, some residents have a choice between a refund plan giving back 40% of the entrance fee or some rental plans depending on what fits best, with the lowest daily rate at $331.00, though that could vary by services and apartment type. Even though not all details are available to the public, the focus there is on offering all the essentials for senior living, including laundry, transportation, and housekeeping, with a homey feel and a steady routine that many older adults and their loved ones find reassuring as life changes.
