About Heather Glen Senior Living and Memory Care in Allentown

Looking for a new home and great care for an aging parent in Allentown or the Lehigh Valley area? Heather Glen Senior Living and Memory Care may be what you are seeking.

Heather Glen in Upper Macungie is comprised of 62 personal care suites and 40 memory care suites dedicated to servicing individuals diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer’s, or other memory impairments.

Although personal care living communities may have memory care units on the premises, the two types of care are not synonymous. Memory care is a distinct form of long-term skilled nursing that specifically caters to patients with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and other types of memory problems.

To provide the best environment for its residents with memory problems, Heather Glen built a separate 40 resident community inside its facility. The community is divided into secure neighborhoods for those with dementia or other cognitive impairments. Each neighborhood consists of a common area kitchen, living room, and dining room at the center of several resident suites. In each neighborhood there is 24/7 specialized memory care staff available to assist residents.

For the personal care residents have an environment that encourages independence in a secure facility. Residents are encouraged to be as independent as possible and can participate in dining, activities, entertainment, and outings, but assistance is also available for routine activities like bathing, dressing, and other personal care. There will always be care available for any resident that may need it during the course of the day. Heather Glen blends group and personal activities to provide a nurturing and secure facility for its residents.

Social interaction is important for all of us. Heather Glen provides group activities and interactions that will keep its residents engaged and involved with one another. This fosters new friendships and relationships that make for happier and more fulfilled residents.
