Overview of The Philadelphia Protestant Home

Under a single name in Philadelphia, PA, The Philadelphia Protestant Home operates skilled nursing, a nursing home, memory care, and independent living. Licensed nurses are present all day and night, and the two nursing tiers rely precisely on this.

Memory care is designed for residents who may wander, with a secured layout that staff supervise. Independent living represents the opposite end of the spectrum, a personal residence without daily assistance. With multiple levels, an individual whose requirements grow can transition from one to another without having to leave or restart socially. That suits someone who anticipates requiring various forms of assistance in one location.

The residence has 188 beds, making it a bigger community, with additional residents and more staff present. Each resident receives an average of 4 hours and 20 minutes of direct nursing care daily.

The residence accepts private pay, Medicare, and Medicaid, with Medicaid being important to consider when savings diminish during an extended stay. Northeast Philadelphia has a Walk Score of 76, which is very walkable. Most errands can be accomplished on foot, and those without a car can get around easily.
