Seaton Springwood

The Haven at Springwood is a premier senior living community in York, PA. The residence provides everything a person needs to enjoy active and healthy retirement living. It offers assisted living services and memory care programs, each staffed twenty-four hours a day for maximum peace of mind. 

A typical assisted living resident at the Haven at Springwood needs help with two or three activities of daily living. They live in one of the community’s studio or suite-style apartments, where caregivers assist them each day. Incoming residents can choose from one of four senior housing floor plans, each including: 

• Private bathrooms 

• Wheelchair accessible showers 

• Closet space 

• Spacious living room/bedroom combination 

• Semi-private rooms, for cohabiting residents 

Residents may live alone, with their spouse, or with a roommate. The community offers companion suites as a money-saving solution for incoming residents, where two compatible people share one apartment. They share the same bathrooms and living areas, and have semi-private rooms for themselves.  

Affordability aside, many older adults prefer cohabiting because living in a private suite can be lonely. Roommates give residents constant social interaction, improving their brain vitality and their day-to-day mood.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How do I know if the Haven at Springwood is right for me? 

Each person is different, and the senior care programs that will help one individual may not help another. The Haven at Springwood is a community-based residential care facility and is distinctly different than a nursing home. Before applying, prospective residents and their families can ask themselves a few questions to see if an assisted living community or personal care facility like the Haven at Springwood is a viable option:

• Can the person get around on their own? 

• Does the person need medical attention on an ongoing basis? 

• Does the person have Alzheimer’s disease or dementia? 

• Does the person require rehabilitation? 

A person must be ambulatory to live at the Haven at Springwood. Nursing homes provide safer, more secure environments for bedridden individuals and are more suitable than assisted living centers. 

The same goes for individuals who require ongoing medical attention. Assisted living services are not tailored for people with chronic injury or illness, and they are not a suitable alternative to skilled nursing facilities in such cases. The Haven at Springwood’s staff can provide medication management, but may not assist with injections, colostomy maintenance, and other skilled nursing services. 

However, the community offers an exceptional short-term rehabilitation program. Their rehab services include speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy for up to 100 days. To learn more about the community’s rehabilitation programs, make an inquiry above for detailed information.

The dementia care unit provides medication management and housekeeping like independent living and assisted living, with additional services tailored for individuals with memory loss. 

Each person who applies to the Haven at Springwood must speak with a care adviser prior to admission to determine their level of care. The care adviser uses a pre-admission assessment to place the person into the right program. If the pre-admission assessment shows symptoms of memory loss or Alzheimer’s disease that require dementia care, the community may recommend they live in the memory support community.
