Features and Amenities Completely furnished modern rooms with a connecting bathroom The amply furnished and cheerful rooms of the home allow residents the opportunity to personalize their living areas, as well as provide a safe and therapeutic environment. Supplementing these services is the Veterans Administration Medical Center of Pittsburgh, which meets mental health and other medical needs not available from the above sources. The physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy departments work toward the full rehabilitation of every resident. The staff achieves restoration of many functions through supervised exercise and training, using the best and latest equipment. Programs are individualized as necessary.
Personal attention is the key for therapeutic care, as with all departments.
We encourage an independent lifestyle as much as possible through the development of self-care skills. Our own equipment shop allows us to repair or modify such things as wheelchairs to satisfy a resident's needs. 24-hour professional nursing team care The facility's nursing stations allow our excellent professional and clinical staff to use comprehensive medical records for the best possible plan of care for each resident. Planned, supervised recreational programs Recreational activities are based on each resident's personal lifestyle. The center promotes the concept of a community where a diverse number of veterans can maintain the lifestyles to which they are accustomed.
