HarborChase of Wilmington
A 120-bed assisted living and memory care community that opened roughly a year ago, HarborChase of Wilmington is one of the newer entries in the Wilmington, Delaware market. It sits at 2004 Shipley Rd, about 4.7 miles from the city center in a somewhat walkable area (Walk Score 36). Most errands require a car.
The care model spans assisted living and memory care, staffed by licensed nurses and CNAs. A Transitional Memory Care program is available for residents whose cognitive needs are shifting. Respite stays are an option as well. The clinical side is led by Director of Nursing Tinamarie Peletski Wisniewski, with administrator Steven Yohay overseeing operations.
Starting price comes in at $7,195 per month. Dining is served through on-site restaurants drawing on global and local menus.
What HarborChase of Wilmington is is a large, recently opened community operating at the higher end of the Wilmington assisted living market. At 120 beds and one year in, it is built for scale. Families financing care privately and looking for memory care support or a transitional program alongside assisted living will find both here.
