Location
Smith S Personal Care Home is located at 47 Front Street PO Box 65, Wyalusing, PA, 18853.
About Smith S Personal Care Home
Smith S Personal Care Home sits in Wyalusing, Pennsylvania, in two old Victorian-style houses, and has room for 34 residents, which gives the place a homelike feeling rather than a big institution, and folks live there in private bedrooms or living spaces, some with kitchenettes for a bit of independence, though help is always nearby if anyone needs it. The place gives people many choices, like assisted living, independent living, memory care, long-term skilled nursing, adult day services, home care, and even hospice care, basically a spot for all kinds of needs, and it's served Pennsylvanians for about 30 years now. Residents get help with things like bathing, dressing, taking medicine, moving around, and other daily tasks, and support's on hand 24 hours a day with a call system and staff who check in. The facility brings in a doctor and podiatrist on call day and night, so there's always someone who knows what to do, and most of the team's licensed for their roles.
The rooms come furnished, and each one has a telephone and emergency alert, and the dining room's set up for restaurant-style or all-day meals, made fresh with attention to special diets or allergies, with home cooking that keeps folks comfortable. There's also laundry, dry cleaning, and housekeeping, which takes chores off anyone's list, and transportation for doctor's appointments and outings gets scheduled as needed. To keep things lively, Smith S Personal Care Home has regular bingo nights, karaoke, arts and crafts, movies, a dedicated activity calendar, and programs run by both residents and the community, plus areas like a library, garden, and walking paths so people can stay as busy or as peaceful as they like. You'll find a barber and salon for personal care, and staff can even help coordinate the move when someone decides to come in. Smith S Personal Care Home accepts SSI residents, offers companionship and social engagement, and gives folks a setting where care's always present but independence is respected, along with memory care for those with Alzheimer's. Meals, activities, and support are just part of the daily routine, all within a setting where many older adults have found comfort and safety for decades, and the community currently has a 6 out of 10 rating.
