New Castle PA Retirement Communities

Seniors are looking to New Castle PA for an assisted living home for the same reasons 23,000 other residents of the Fireworks Capital have chosen it: it’s simply a great place to live. It’s a stable community thanks to top civic leaders and a skilled work force plus a revitalized downtown, many large city parks and historic sites like the first Warner Brothers theater.

Seniors will enjoy visiting the Hoyt Institute of Fine Arts, a recognized center for the arts. Or for outdoor lovers, lots of golf is handy, with the New Castle Country Club, several public courses and the city’s own Sylvan Heights. If you need a dose of the city lights, New Castle is just a stone’s throw from Pittsburgh. Or when the big city’s not the place for you, several nearby Pennsylvania state parks provide relaxing camping and fishing---even kayaking!
Within the city of New Castle itself are more than 20 assisted living facilities with a total of some 30 facilities in the greater New Castle area, offering you a wide variety of care options and costs. Jameson Healthcare System serves the New Castle area’s health and medical needs with more than 300 beds and a full range of services, including Jameson North on the north side of the city and Jameson South on the south.

A growing number of seniors are finding assisted living is not just for people “ten years older than we are”! It’s a good way to live now; especially if you’ve always wanted to escape not only the cooking, dusting and scrubbing needed to keep a full-size house shipshape but also the planting, mowing, fertilizing and snow shoveling outside.
And when you do find you need more and more assistance with ADLs (those familiar Activities of Daily Living that become so hard as you age) they’re right there in the assisted living facility, often at no further cost. In your home they could cost thousands. For instance, in the area a quick in-home five-days-a-week nurse visit costs almost $15,000 a year and twelve months of an all-day home health aide or a housekeeper in your own house costs almost 45 grand.
