What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hermitage
Located about halfway between Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Cleveland, Ohio, Hermitage is the third largest city in Pennsylvania in terms of land area. As of the 2016 census, 29.5 percent of the city's population was age 62 or older. To help accommodate this large senior population, there are 43 assisted living facilities in the Hermitage area, with three of them within the city itself.
The State of Pennsylvania recognizes three distinct types of assisted living facilities. The largest of these are assisted living residences, which are licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Aging, Office of Long-Term Living, Division of Licensing. These facilities are allowed to be dual licensed and offer nursing care along with eating, bathing and dressing assistance.
There are also public care homes, which are licensed by the Department of Public Welfare, Adult Residential Licensing. These facilities are not allowed to offer any type of nursing or medical care. Lastly, the area offers adult foster care homes, which are administered by Area Agencies on Aging and restricted to three or less residents.
