Personal Care
Personal care (often referred to as assisted living) is for those who want to continue living an active, independent lifestyle, but need a little extra assistance with daily tasks. The Heritage offers a variety of services, amenities and wellness plans to ensure you or your loved one continues to live life to the fullest.
What does personal care mean? Extra assistance for extraordinary people!
Personal Care includes help with activities such as dressing or bathing, taking medication as prescribed, incontinence care or simply getting around safely.
Those are the basics you should expect at any Personal Care community. But what sets apart personal care at The Heritage of Green Hills (formerly Green Hills Manor) in Shillington, PA is our individualized approach. We listen to each resident’s personal story and honor their achievements. We respect personal preferences and cater to individual needs. Residents can choose what time they want to get up in the morning and when they want to go to bed at night. They can choose what they want to eat from an extensive menu and how they want to spend their day.
We offer a full calendar of activities residents are free to participate in as they wish. We work with each resident to determine interests, hobbies and goals they’d like to pursue, and then build individualized plans around them. It’s all part of our community-wide Well by Design program to help residents achieve balance and variety in their daily lives.
