Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
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.

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.
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.

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.

Overview of The Residence at Whitehall Il and

Seven years running, and The Residence at Whitehall Il and covers a fairly full spread for a 46-bed community: assisted living, independent living, and respite care, all in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Independent living starts at $2,665 a month. Getting around outside the building usually means driving, since the Walk Score here sits at 38, somewhat walkable at best.

Daily support runs through medication management, transfer assistance, housekeeping, and laundry, the kind of coverage that lets residents stay independent without managing every task alone. Respite care is available too, for families who need short-term coverage rather than a permanent move.

Branding shows up in a few specific places. Graceful Dining™ names the community’s approach to meals, and Graceful Respite Stays and the Vibrant Living Program each carry their own identity rather than folding into a generic activities list. A Wellness Program adds structure to the calendar, and residents can spend time in a fitness center, a spa, a restaurant, or a cafe.

Veterans Benefits are available here too, worth knowing for residents who qualify and are weighing how to pay for care.

Jenna Johnston directs the community, and Cpf Living Communities – Whitehall LLC owns the property. This is a mid-sized Pittsburgh community built around named dining and wellness programs, daily living support, and flexible respite options for families who need it.
