Senior Activities Program in Drexel Hill, PA

Delaware County has no shortage of senior activities program listings and very few homes where the same caregiver knows the same six people a year later. This page is written for the second kind of search.

Delaware County is one of the densest concentrations of personal care beds in Pennsylvania. Personal care rates run $4,200 – $7,800 a month, the assisted living median sits near $6,300, and home care at $30 – $34 an hour buys roughly 40 hours a week. Bell Elite's all-inclusive senior activities program starts at $5,900 — 1.5 miles from Drexel Hill, about 5 minutes via Baltimore Pike, MacDade Boulevard and I-476.

What senior activities program covers day to day: engaging daily activities tailored to each resident's interests, home-cooked meals with dietary accommodations, social interaction and community building, outdoor time and gentle exercise programs. What it does not: skilled nursing, which needs a clinical facility and which we will tell you plainly before you move anyone from Drexel Hill.

One question worth asking any Delaware County provider about senior activities program: who is awake overnight? Not on call, awake. Ours is a caregiver who knows the resident's baseline, and a nurse reachable in minutes — that is the difference between a fall caught early and a night in Delaware County Memorial Hospital (5 min).

The short answer

Bell Elite Senior Living provides senior activities program for Drexel Hill, PA families from a licensed 6-resident personal care home in Lansdowne, PA — 1.5 miles and about 5 minutes away — starting at $5,900 per month with daily registered-nurse oversight.

Why Families in Drexel Hill Choose Bell Elite for Senior Activities Program

Key benefits that set us apart from larger facilities

Nurse oversight for senior activities program

For senior activities program, daily nurse oversight is the difference that matters: medication is poured, documented and re-checked by a licensed professional rather than left to a medication aide.

Senior Activities Program in Drexel Hill: the setting

A real kitchen, a sunroom and a yard, ten minutes from Drexel Hill Shopping Center, so Drexel Hill visitors come for coffee rather than a scheduled appointment.

What Drexel Hill families actually pay

Rate changes are given in writing with 30 days' notice, and senior activities program here never re-prices because a resident's care level went up — the tiers only apply at move-in.

Getting to us from Drexel Hill

1.5 miles from Drexel Hill and minutes from Drexel Hill Shopping Center — short enough that a spouse can still be there for dinner several nights a week.
