Gracious Living Estates

Gracious Living Estates sits on 24 acres in Montrose, PA, with walking paths, gardens, and spots where you might see deer or wild turkeys, and the place has a focus on caring for seniors who want comfort and help without fuss. The community offers assisted living, memory care, independent living, skilled nursing, senior apartments, and residential care homes, so folks with all types of care needs can find a spot-whether someone just wants to be around others or needs full help with things like bathing, dressing, or moving from bed to chair, including two-person transfers. There are private studios, semi-private rooms, and two-bedroom options, and the place posts its prices though quotes might vary depending on what's needed, and for payment they'll work with private pay, insurance, Social Security, or veteran's benefits. Meals-cooked by chefs using local ingredients and made to fit any diet-get served to everyone, and snacks keep people from getting hungry, and those who don't want to cook or clean can use the housekeeping and laundry services. Staff stays on-site 24 hours, helping with medication, diabetes care with insulin, incontinence, and other daily needs, and the nurse coverage lasts 12-16 hours a day with the rest handled by the care team and a call system. The grounds have indoor and outdoor spots to rest, a garden for those who still like to dig, a fitness center, a big activity room and Great Room for events, and a beauty salon and barbershop, and Wi-Fi comes at no charge for folks who want to stay connected or use their Netflix subscription to watch a movie. Activities keep things lively-bingo, arts and crafts, music, fitness classes like "Toning with Elvis," group exercise with DVDs, religious services, games, movies, karaoke, shopping trips, live performances, and outings mean people can stay busy or just take it easy and visit with others indoors or out. The community lets folks smoke outside, provides guest parking, helps with transportation at cost, and can host respite care or hospice if that's ever needed. Gracious Living Estates has served seniors since 1998 and aims for a warm, cozy place with respectful staff and a neighborly feel, so anyone aged 55 and up who wants some help but still wants a bit of space might find it suits them just fine. The place is close to local spots like Antols Drive In, the South Montrose Community Church, and healthcare providers including Endless Mountains Health Systems, NEPA Family Medical, and Montrose Medical Arts Pharmacy. The staff pays attention to what each person needs, whether someone likes to tend flowers, needs regular exercise, or just wants to spend quiet time with friends or family, and the routine blends personal care with room for independent living as best as possible.
