Good Shepherd Supported Independent Living – Allentown

Overview of Good Shepherd Supported Independent Living – Allentown

Allentown, PA, is home to Good Shepherd Supported Independent Living. It’s in the South Side neighborhood of the town, and independent living is the only care type it offers. Independent living means residents keep a private apartment, with a community and its services built around them, but otherwise no regular, daily care. The community suits an adult who wants an apartment with the benefit of support services close at hand, and the intent to go on living independently for the most part.

The area’s Walk Score is 60 out of 100, falling in the somewhat walkable category, meaning some errands can be walked to, but not all of them. Transportation services are available for trips out.

The community is staffed every hour of the day, and a doctor is part of the staff. Rehabilitation services are also available through the community.

Apartments here are available as one- and two-bedroom units. A single person or a married couple suits the smaller of the two; a pair moving in who don’t sleep in the same bed are suited for the larger.

Outdoors, there’s a patio and a garden. The activity schedule includes events and movie nights.
