Operated by Lutheran SeniorLife, Lutheran Senior Life Passavant Community is a 68-bed nursing community in Zelienople, Pennsylvania, offering residential care, rehabilitation, memory care, and nursing care.

Current occupancy is 51%, with 35 residents living within a 68-bed setting, suggesting availability.

Outpatient therapy, Meals on Wheels coordination, and connections to local senior centers are also provided, along with chef-prepared dining and an on-site health and wellness center. Moreover, total nursing care is provided at an average of 4 hours and 37 minutes each day, while nurse aides provide an additional 3 hours and 55 minutes of support. The community also accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay arrangements.

More recent inspections also showed improvement but noted a documentation deficiency involving resident assessments.

Interested families are encouraged to review Lutheran Senior Life Passavant Community’s inspection records carefully and discuss the safeguards in place to support medication accuracy, resident safety, and regulatory compliance, to ensure it meets their needs.
