Personal Care in Carlisle PA

Personal Care at The Homestead

Here at The Homestead, residents enjoy personal dignity and independence in their own private accommodations, coupled with the reassurance of a professional, caring staff who provide assistance with daily activities.

In contrast to traditional personal care or assisted living programs, residents drive their own schedules with breakfast, bathing, sleeping and medication administration on flexible schedules designed around individual needs. Our residents get back something that’s lost in many facilities: the power to choose.

Many people wonder when they should move to personal care or assisted living. Our blog highlights nine desires that may indicate its time to explore personal care or assisted living.

Personal Care Respite

If your family would benefit from a short-term reprieve from caregiving or if your loved one wants to try personal care with no long-term commitment, respite may be a good option.

During each four-week respite stay, residents enjoy every benefit of living in the personal care Homestead at Chapel Pointe, including things like three meals a day, 24/7 nursing oversight, activities, help with medications, social opportunities, and assistance with daily routines. In addition, a room furnished to feel like home and an all-inclusive daily rate make the transition simple.

Whether sampling personal care for the future or taking a short caregiving reprieve, your family can experience many benefits through personal care respite.

Personal Care Respite Is Ideal For People Who:

  • Live locally so friends and family can visit.
  • Get around pretty well, whether with a walker, cane, or scooter.
  • Are not prone to wandering. Respite services are not provided in a locked setting.
  • Plan to pay privately.

Only a limited number of Chapel Pointe’s all-private rooms are available for respite, so call our marketing team at 717-249-1363 to reserve your four-week respite stay today.

  • Mom is trying so many new things and pushing herself out of her comfort zone. She is getting physically stronger by walking more—which she refused to do at home. She continually tells me how good it feels to be with people her own age.

  • Less work for me, help just a phone call away, and meeting many new friends all make me glad that I live at Chapel Pointe.
    …I know it is hard to leave your home and neighbors, but you make new friends and neighbors fast here.

  • I was getting worn down with taking care of the house and everything all the time, so personal care was a good change and thing for me. I like it here, I really do.
