The activity room offers a great place to socialize. Our guests enjoy the sun on the outdoor patio, a lovely courtyard, and walks along one of the many shaded pathways. Our property features movie nights, gardening activities, a beauty salon, and a resident-operated gift shop. Volunteers operate the front desk, and visits from local musicians are a favorite among our residents.
The therapy and treatment rooms have all the latest equipment to ensure you are getting what you need to recover quickly. Tasty and nutritious breakfasts, lunches, and dinners are prepared by our cooks daily, and there are special meals from local restaurants.

In addition, our Pennsylvania Empowered Expert Residents (PEER) program allows long-term care residents, who are trained to self-advocate, empower their fellow residents to improve the quality of life and care in our long-term care facility. PEER is a partnership between residents, facility staff, and the local ombudsman. Our PEERs have brought about positive cultural changes that significantly enhanced resident relationships with care providers. The Gardens at Blue Ridge has several active PEER members who meet regularly to discuss and enhance their quality of life.
