About Buffalo Valley Personal Care
Buffalo Valley Personal Care sits at 305 E Tressler Blvd in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, and belongs to the Buffalo Valley Lutheran Village, which is a large Continuing Care Retirement Community. The place offers personal care in a home-like setting, and the staff help seniors with bathing, dressing, medication management, and other daily needs. Residents get care from licensed caregivers who work around the clock, and there's a 24-hour emergency alert system for safety along with secured units for memory care, helping those with dementia and Alzheimer's. The facility supports up to 50 older adults in memory care and provides therapies focused on dementia. Assisted living here also covers meal planning, diabetic and non-ambulatory care, incontinence support, as well as help for folks who use wheelchairs.
People can take part in group activities, church services, art classes, trips around town, or spend time relaxing in the garden, library, or outdoor spaces, which are all easy to get to. Meals are served in a dining room restaurant-style all day, with chefs making sure meals meet special dietary needs like allergies and diabetes, and there are snacks throughout the day too. Rooms come furnished with kitchenettes, cable TV, wifi, and phone access. There's also help with laundry and housekeeping, so residents have less to worry about. Seniors can visit the on-site barber and beauty salon, join movie nights, and enjoy group and resident-run social activities. Staff provide home care, adult day services, respite stays, hospice care, and long-term skilled nursing. Tele-health, care management, remote monitoring, transportation, and activities are all supported with features like electronic visit verification and family engagement tools. Services also include My Adult Behavior, My Senior Care Hub, My Adult Home Care, and My Adult Foster Care. Full-time activity directors keep the schedule lively, and transportation is provided for doctor visits or outings. The faith-centered approach encourages nurturing of physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, and the place has a legacy of more than 165 years of serving seniors with care and dignity. The building is wheelchair accessible throughout and has walking paths outside for fresh air and quiet time. Buffalo Valley Personal Care is licensed as a Personal Care Home and welcomes folks who need varying levels of support in their later years. Appointment booking is open Monday to Saturday, and the staff all speak English.
