Premier at Perry Village

Premier at Perry Village sits in a peaceful rural area and offers skilled nursing care, assisted living, memory care, and even home care for those who need it. The facility has 123 beds for skilled nursing and keeps 2 private rooms along with 59 semi-private rooms, and couples can live together if both become residents. Staff from the local community welcome people with friendly, out-of-town hospitality, and you'll find them around the clock. Some amenities, like a beauty salon by appointment, a gazebo to watch the wildlife, and regular visits from local musicians, give the place a homey feel. Residents can join arts and crafts, gardening, and other activities, and meals follow a healthy menu designed by a dietitian, with favorites like Pennsylvania Dutch dishes such as chicken pot pie and meat and potatoes. The therapy department offers updates on progress, while skilled staff handle physical, occupational, and speech therapy, along with special care for conditions like stroke, respiratory problems, wounds, and heart issues. Doctors such as Dr. Bisbing and Dr. Creps visit every week for their rounds, and the clinics refer those needing hospital care to local hospitals like Carlisle Regional Medical Center or Holy Spirit Hospital. Nursing staff work hard, though the nurse turnover rate is high at 63.9%, and staff give an average of 3.53 nursing hours per resident each day. People can expect care oversight from Perry Village physicians, plus help with billing and discharge planning. State and federal inspections keep an eye on things, and past inspection notes show a history of 21 deficiencies, especially in resident rights and assessments, so the facility does have room to improve. The CMS gave the facility a 4-star quality rating. The facility is managed by Premier Care Centers LLC and operates under Consulate Health Care with several direct owners holding equal shares, and Ephram Lahasky holding an indirect stake. Accommodations are simple, with studio layouts in both private and shared options, and the staff aim to provide personalized support for long-term and short-term stays alike.
