The Gardens of Green Ridge sits on a landscaped campus at 2751 Boulevard Ave in Scranton's Providence neighborhood, and you'll find manicured lawns, indoor and outdoor spaces for relaxing, and a layout meant to support both social activities and quiet moments. The facility operates around the clock and has care options that range from skilled nursing and assisted living to memory care for residents struggling with dementia or Alzheimer's, and people appreciate the person-centered approach, where wellness checks and personalized care plans are part of daily routines-families have given it a reputation score of 3.6 from 16 reviews, which says people notice both strengths and areas for improvement. It's an apartment-type property with studio and semi-private rooms, and each space can come furnished, with private bathrooms, air conditioning, cable TV, kitchenettes, and internet if needed, but there aren't many details about floor plans or specific amenities in common spaces.
The care teams, many with experience in senior needs, provide help at all levels-light, medium, and heavy care-with support for bathing, dressing, and moving from place to place, whether that means standby help, one-person or two-person transfers, or even mechanical lifts. Nurses and staff are there 24 hours a day, and the site's memory care wing uses special technology, like bracelets that set off alarms if someone wanders, to boost safety, especially for those who might be at risk of getting lost. Services cover medication management, diabetic care including insulin shots, incontinence help, and behavioral care for residents prone to wandering or acting out. There are hospice and respite programs, so people can stay even if their needs increase, and support for aging in place gets a lot of attention.
Weekly cleaning and laundry are included, as are move-in and concierge services, so daily life is a bit easier, and everyone gets restaurant-style meals from professional chefs, with options for special diets like vegetarian, diabetic, or allergy-sensitive plates. You'll find transportation and parking solutions, even though the property keeps details about parking somewhat vague, but both indoor and outdoor shared spaces, including gardens, walking paths, a spa/wellness room, library, activity areas, and a movie theater, give people a reason to get involved in community life; arts and music programs, group games, scheduled activities, and both staff- and resident-run events keep folks engaged. Residents can access a beauty salon on site, and showers come with both walk-in and full tub options for accessibility.
Most staff speak English and use a respectful manner, focusing on independence but with backup when residents need extra help. The Gardens of Green Ridge accepts Medicaid and Medicare, and offers expert advice for long-term care planning, family caregiving, and insurance support. Saber Health is connected as either a manager or partner, which means there's a wider network supporting the facility, and the operation is described as new and up-to-date. With a secure property and separate memory care building, the community can accommodate people who face behavioral challenges or need added supervision due to medical or cognitive concerns. While there's no clear list of utilities, interior features, or specific community fees other than those for the rooms and respite services, the overall atmosphere tends to center on safety, kindness, and tailoring services to each person's needs as they change.
