Hearthstone Retirement Home

Hearthstone Retirement Home sits in a quiet residential neighborhood of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, and it's a medium-sized senior living community with 30 beds that offers a mix of housing, care, and supportive services designed for seniors who want to keep their independence as long as they can, even though sometimes help's needed with things like bathing, dressing, or managing medicines, and there's always a registered nurse available to keep an eye on medications and health concerns, especially for residents dealing with diabetes, wound care, or other health needs while the staff handles daily tasks and provides 24-hour supervision and an emergency call system for safety. Residents can choose cozy studio rooms and spend time in indoor common areas, an arts room, or the community garden, and there are outdoor spaces like walking paths and places to sit when the weather's nice. The home provides all-day, restaurant-style dining in a shared dining room, and kitchen staff make nutritious meals using good ingredients while offering options for special diets like diabetic or allergy-sensitive needs. The staff keeps everyone engaged with community activities both on and off site, including resident-run programs, outings, and exercise classes, plus move-in help and housecleaning, dry cleaning, and laundry services, so residents have a little extra freedom to enjoy hobbies or join social programs. Hearthstone Retirement Home can arrange added care from outside services if residents have changing needs, and memory care services help those with dementia or memory trouble. For those needing in-home care, they have dedicated support, and their license as a personal care home comes from the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services. They ask for a medical evaluation from a family doctor as part of the move-in application, and families find comfort in knowing the home has a high community rating of 9.8 out of 10 in Waynesboro. The location puts residents close to churches, shops, hair stylists, and the town library, with access to arts, cultural events, and help from local agencies and business programs, as the home works closely with groups like the Small Business Development Center and various economic development resources, showing a strong connection to Waynesboro and the surrounding community.
