Residential care homes in Philadelphia may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Philadelphia care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes.
