Hillview Home sits atop a landscaped eight-acre lot at 615 Cornell Street in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, offering a quiet, hilltop view with a stretch of forest and a hiking trail nearby, which really gives the place a peaceful and somewhat secluded feel, with plenty of space for outdoor walking, some fresh air, and just watching the seasons change, and with only 22 beds, the whole setting stays small and homey, providing a cozy, personal space for its residents. The community has been family-owned and running for almost 40 years, so there's a sense of stability and routine, with staff knowing the residents by name and keeping things familiar, and you'll notice the staff available round the clock, whether someone needs a hand getting from the bed to a wheelchair, managing insulin levels for diabetes, or just handling the usual emergencies that can happen as folks get older.
Meal services cover all meals so residents don't need to worry about cooking or cleaning up, and meals can be tailored for allergies or diabetes, which is handy, and the dining room stays open for all-day dining. There's a decent schedule of activities to keep residents active, like art classes, stretching and chair yoga, musical performances, pet therapy, bingo, popcorn and movie days, and even pizza and ice cream socials, with a mix of community-sponsored and resident-run activities, and for spiritual needs, the home has in-house religious services and nearby churches help with spiritual care.
Rooms come in different types and some are fully furnished, from studios to semi-private, and all include telephone access and Wi-Fi, plus the comforts of air conditioning, cable or satellite TV, a dining room, small library, and pleasant garden areas and patios to sit outside. Housekeeping, laundry-including dry cleaning-and medication management are taken care of by the staff, so residents and families don't have to handle all those daily chores themselves. Security and safety are a priority, too, with 24-hour supervision, an emergency call system, and support for both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents, making it possible for folks who use wheelchairs or need help with walking aids to live there comfortably and safely.
The home is equipped to help with assisted living and personal care, memory care, skilled nursing, and there's support for Alzheimer's, incontinence, medication administration, mental wellness programs, plus planning out individualized care for every resident depending on what help's needed, whether it's bathing, dressing, transfers, or keeping track of medical needs. On-site visits by physicians, nurses, podiatrists, and therapists handle the medical side, while the social calendar and schedule of group and individual activities help residents keep up with friends, move around, and stay connected. Amenities include a beauty salon, movie nights, walking paths, and garden areas, making things more comfortable and lively.
Payment options include private pay, social security, veteran's benefits, and commercial insurance, but there are different fees for the community, respite care, buy-in, and care levels-like for higher medical needs or if a second person moves in-so it's important to check the exact details depending on the situation. Hillview Home uses English as its main language, maintains high standards of care in a small, quiet, and friendly setting, and aims to make life safe and comfortable for seniors who like their independence but need a little more help than before. The community routinely gets good feedback from residents and families, with reviews averaging 8 out of 10, and has a reputation in the area for its personal touch and commitment to treating everyone who lives there with respect and care.
