Overview of Reformed Presbyterian Home

Reformed Presbyterian Home has been a part of the Perry South neighborhood in Pittsburgh for nearly 40 years. It is managed by the Reformed Presbyterian Women’s Association. You can find the facility at 2344 Perrysville Ave. It is about 2.1 miles from the city center. The area has a Walk Score of 50. This means it is moderately walkable, but you might still prefer to drive for most of your daily tasks. They offer 56 beds that cover both independent living and nursing care.

The average stay is 88 days. That number is significant because it shows they manage a steady mix of short-term recovery cases and long-term residents. In terms of staffing, residents receive 4 hours and 48 minutes of nursing coverage daily. Registered nurses provide 1 hour and 13 minutes of that time, while nurse aides provide 2 hours and 24 minutes.

They operate as a Continuing Care Retirement Community. They have an Active Resident Council in place. It gives people who live there a clear way to share their concerns and influence how the home runs. It is nice to see that level of input. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which helps keep options open for different families.

State inspections at this facility cover standard ground. They focus on things like medication management, fall prevention, food service, and general safety. These are common areas for nursing homes to monitor. Because they handle different types of care and payment methods, this home is a practical option for anyone on the North Side looking for flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Pennsylvania

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 nursing home care?

Yes — Pennsylvania Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 183 nursing homes in Pennsylvania. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
