For National Assisted Living Week, residents shared what surprised them most about assisted living — the sense of community, the comfort of tailored care, meaningful connections, truly feeling at home, and having more fun each day.

Our deepest thank you to all the residents. They make the residences such a special community. ♥️ Happy National Assisted Living Week!

"Here we go Steelers… here we go" to Steelers Training Camp! 🏈

It was a beautiful day for a visit to Latrobe, PA, on August 6th for this annual outing. It’s always a thrill to see our Steelers legends and the new players at training camp. We fans were fortunate to interact with a few players post-practice for photos and autographs.

Can’t wait for our tailgate parties and the next kickoff!
