The Gardens at Stevens sits on the outskirts of Stevens, Pennsylvania, where it offers a range of senior care options within a Continuing Care Retirement Community, so people can live there as their needs change. The place has independent living, skilled nursing, memory care, long-term care, assisted living, a personal care home with 15 beds, and short-term rehabilitation, including physical, occupational, and speech therapies. There are private and semi-private rooms, and the small community feeling means staff recognize the residents and help both singles and couples who want to downsize. The building has been renovated with boutique style décor, upgraded laminate floors, artistically designed lights, walk-in showers, and a sun room area; the whole place avoids long hallways, making it easier for residents to get to the dining areas and lounges.
The staff at The Gardens at Stevens has stayed with the community for years, providing 24-hour care and supervision, including help with daily needs like bathing, getting dressed, medication management, transferring, and moving around, all in English. Residents stay safe with a comprehensive call system, and there's a focus on personal dignity and independence. Housekeeping, laundry, and meal prep are part of the service, and the restaurant-style dining includes tasty Pennsylvania Dutch-inspired meals and can handle food allergies or diabetic diets.
Life here is made comfortable and engaging, since community-sponsored and resident-run activities fill the calendar, there's an arts and crafts room, movie nights, a lounge, walking paths, and a dining room where folks can gather. Rehabilitation and therapy aim to help people get stronger and go home when possible, with nurses and aides working around the clock. The community is known for its long history of helping the Stevens area, offering long-term skilled nursing care with compassion and a personal touch. The Gardens at Stevens keeps things practical, aiming for a home-like, safe setting where residents can age in place in a small, friendly atmosphere.
