Services and Amenities
Part of the monthly service package at Pennswood Village covers the cost of campus services and amenities, like campus and home maintenance, dining services, the wellness center, WiFi, entertainment opportunities, scheduled transportation, 24/7 security, housekeeping and much more.
Consider the total cost for each of these services in your current home, and compare that combined cost to the monthly service fee at Pennswood. Because the monthly fee covers everything from your home and utilities to all amenities, it’s often a lower monthly cost than what many typically pay for in their current house.

A Cost-Effective Plan for the Future
Another value of living at a Continuing Care Retirement Community is the Life Care contract that allows you priority access to future health care services, including personal care and skilled nursing right here on our campus. As you age, if your needs are to ever change, you will be able to get the health services you require and your monthly service fee will remain stable, providing support, financial stability and peace of mind throughout your retirement.
If the Life Care contract isn’t what you’re looking for, Pennswood Village also offers Fee-for-Service contacts that allow you to pay only for the health care services you need. You can read more about this type of contract here.
The Value of Wellness
It’s hard to put a price on wellness, and at Pennswood Village, wellness is viewed as invaluable. Community living can improve each of the seven dimensions of wellness: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, environmental and vocational.
Without the responsibility of maintaining a house, you’ll have more time and opportunities to exercise and socialize, pursue passions or further a career, volunteer, worship and meditate, or anything else you choose to do—offering the greatest value of all.
