Willow Terrace sits right at 800 Willow Street in downtown Lebanon, not far from Harrisburg, where it's been standing since 1972, and the building has 100 units, mostly offering studio and one-bedroom apartments with elevator access, so residents don't have to worry about stairs, and there's a range of floor plans, including cozy studios at 360, 380, and 412 square feet, along with larger one- and two-bedroom choices, and people who qualify must be 62 years or older, often fitting low to moderate income needs, so it's meant to be a safe, affordable, and secure place for seniors. Community Homes runs Willow Terrace, and the apartments themselves have things like on-site laundry, on-site parking, and pet-friendly policies if someone has a furry companion, and the grounds are well-kept, with a fitness center, common lounge, and indoor spaces for socializing or just talking with neighbors.
Willow Terrace provides assisted living, memory care, independent living, and home care services, so staff can support residents with things like bathing, dressing, medication management, and help with moving from a bed to a wheelchair, and there's a nurse on site for medical emergencies at any time, 24 hours a day. The team there can help monitor insulin levels for people with diabetes, manage non-ambulatory and incontinence care needs, and there's support for mental health and recovery with learning centers and access to a health library with information on medications, tests, and procedures, plus there's a symptom checker that makes it easier to know when to seek help. Residents get meal services with nutritious food made from good ingredients, and there are activities planned to promote movement, healthy living, devotional opportunities, and even offsite trips.
Willow Terrace accepts private pay, veteran's benefits, and social security as payment, but there are fees for different things, including a community fee, fees for respite care, buy-in fees, and care cost based on whether a resident needs high, medium, or low support. The community gives reports and data about rental rates, sales history, occupancy, vacancy, and information on management, so it's fairly transparent about costs and availability. The apartment building itself is modern in design and beautifully kept, with secure entrances and functional amenities right in the heart of downtown, making it a spot where seniors can keep their independence but get support when needed, with a good mix of social and private spaces. Willow Terrace also connects residents to more help if they need it, like post-incarceration reentry services, state and federal programs such as the Affordable Care Act, HRSA health centers, and local advocacy resources, so there's a wide net of community support around.
