DevonHouse Senior Living Allentown is a locally owned and managed community with over 25 years serving Lehigh Valley, and people have called it "The Heart of Hospitality," which seems fitting because the staff are friendly and pay close attention to small things, like meal seating. The facility offers all-inclusive senior living with assisted living, memory care, independent living, personal care, respite care, home care, and specialty clinical services. Residents can choose from shared, private, or couple accommodations, all with fully furnished rooms and private in-suite bathrooms. The one-floor design makes it easier for folks to get around, and there are no steps or tricky leveling, so wheelchairs and walkers move easily. Nurses and medical professionals stay on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and they use electronic medical record systems and medication tracking to keep everything organized and safe.
DevonHouse builds care plans for each resident, with assistance for activities like bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility, plus medication management from licensed nurses. Residents can keep their current doctors or choose new providers, and there are on-site geriatrician support services, along with a mobile podiatrist and scheduled rides for medical appointments. They serve three chef-prepared, farm-to-table meals every day, and a certified dietitian approves the menus. Social and spiritual activities, live entertainment, and a daily recreation calendar keep people busy and help fight loneliness. The multi-purpose activities room, hair salon, and different floor plans help everyone feel more at home, and a wireless call system plus other safety monitors help folks feel secure.
Community events like the Olde Time Family Fair, daily recreation, and a variety of educational programs help residents engage socially, physically, and mentally. There's also concierge service and help for veterans with benefit paperwork. The care team aims for personalized attention, and people say the atmosphere is caring and welcoming, with respect for privacy and independence. The community has earned awards for care and involvement, showing a steady commitment to quality and kindness. Guided tours let new visitors see how the meals taste and what daily life feels like. DevonHouse is managed by The Hamister Group, Inc., which oversees several other communities, but this place has deep local roots and a strong focus on comfort, safety, and supporting each person's dignity in later years.
