Built to take advantage of Pennsylvania's picturesque landscape while providing an exceptionally wholesome community in which older adults can thrive, St. Andrew's Village needed a makeover to further improve its capacity to enhance and nourish the lives of its residents. Beginning in 2013, the $10 million renovation of the village emphasized a unique design model that applies the physical and emotional benefits of home living, having immediate access to the outdoors and a cozier, family-type feel to the community.

“The goal of Parker House is for seniors to be comfortable, feel at home and provide a place where they can successfully age in place whenever possible without having to move to a skilled nursing center as their care needs progress. This is a very unique concept for supportive senior care and living in this region – there’s nothing else like it.” -Hope Lambert, Executive Director, Quincy Village It can be incredibly trying to watch your parents or loved ones advance in age. As the years roll on and the decades progress, some may lose more of their independence and require additional help and support. While we all want to provide the best loving care possible for older adults, we don’t want to encroach on their dignity and self-respect. Presbyterian Senior Living has been working on a new type of assisted living home residency concept, called the Small House, which may be the missing piece of the puzzle.
