City and state of the facility. Used for mapping and state-average comparisons.
Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
Name of the licensed owner, operator, or managing entity as filed with the state. Useful for grouping facilities under the same organization.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.
Number of inspections triggered by complaints or allegations. Useful for spotting facilities that receive frequent complaint-driven scrutiny.
Share of inspections that resulted in citations, expressed as a percentage of total inspections in the window.
Total count of citations (cited regulatory issues) recorded in the selected reporting period. Read alongside inspection counts for context.
The average number of citations this facility receives each time it's inspected, calculated as total citations ÷ total inspections. A lower number suggests more consistent compliance with safety and care standards.
Reported profit orientation for the operator or facility (e.g. for-profit vs nonprofit), as provided in state licensing or disclosure data.
Total daily staff count from Pennsylvania inspection/licensing data (headcount snapshot), when reported.
The total number of staff employed per resident. A number greater than or = to 1 is a positive care signal.

Housing or bed configuration options (e.g. studio, shared), often from facility-reported amenities and licensing details.
Better Business Bureau grade for the operating company. Reflects complaint handling and business practices, not clinical care quality.

With 40 beds, Grove Manor I is a smaller community where staff and residents can get to know each other. That may suit someone who prefers a more intimate setting.

The Terraces at Capitol Village

4004 Linglestown Rd, Harrisburg, PA 17112
Overview of The Terraces at Capitol Village

The Terraces at Capitol Village is at 4004 Linglestown Rd in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, run by Capitol Operator LLC as an assisted living, memory care, and respite care community. The building itself is single-story, 64 beds, but the housing options inside have real range: studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, running from about 285 square feet up to 1,100 square feet.

Occupancy is high, 84%, meaning 54 of the 64 beds are currently filled. As for getting around outside the building, the Walk Score sits at 33 out of 100. That’s “somewhat walkable,” so a handful of nearby services can be reached on foot, though most errands are still going to mean getting in a car.

Staffing-wise, licensed nurses and CNAs are on duty around the clock. And the services offered go past basic supervision. There’s rehabilitation care, short-term rehab, respite stays built for families who need a temporary bridge, and personal care support for everyday living tasks.

Meals are chef-prepared daily. Residents can also make use of an on-site beauty salon, a spa, and a chapel, for anyone who wants a quiet place to reflect or worship. Add in transportation services and fitness and recreation programming, plus a running activities calendar and religious services for those who want to take part. Regulatory inspections at this location have tended to focus on a fairly predictable set of areas: medication management, staffing and staff credentials, care planning and documentation, and resident rights and protections.

So what does all of this add up to? A community built around range, short-term rehab, respite care, ongoing assisted living, and memory care, housed across units sized for different needs, with round-the-clock nursing and a genuinely full slate of daily comforts backing it all up.

Overview of The 501

The 501 offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Ambler, PA. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, and respite care provides a short stay for someone whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

Having several care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time because the resident may move between care settings without leaving the community. The apartment community has 118 beds and offers one-bedroom and two-bedroom residences; a two-bedroom layout can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion, while a one-bedroom layout is a single private space. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet to the community.

Rehabilitation services are available for a resident working toward improved mobility or daily function. The community is in the Willowmere neighborhood, and a Walk Score of 37 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride. Sblp Upper Dublin Opco operates The 501.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Pennsylvania

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Pennsylvania?

Assisted living in Pennsylvania supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Pennsylvania?

Assisted living in Pennsylvania is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Pennsylvania Medicaid cover assisted living?

Pennsylvania Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Pennsylvania) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 458 assisted living facilities in Pennsylvania. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Pennsylvania?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Pennsylvania, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Pennsylvania?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
