The Health Center\u2019s transformation was designed by Lenhardt Rogers Architecture and brought to life by David Funk &amp; Sons Construction, both respected local firms known for their craftsmanship and quality.<\/p>\n<p>The extensive renovation reimagined traditional nursing and memory care spaces into four households, each featuring its own kitchen, dining room, living room, activity area, and outdoor space. This innovative model fosters a warm sense of community and belonging, while ensuring residents receive personalized care in a setting that feels like home.<\/p>\n<p>A new therapy gym offers physical, occupational, and speech therapies, including LSVT BIG therapy for Parkinson\u2019s Disease. Guided by a commitment to dignity and independence, the design emphasizes resident autonomy and freedom of movement within a supportive environment.<\/p>\n<p>The Memory Care community was also expanded to meet the growing needs of individuals with cognitive impairments. Like the skilled nursing households, each space provides a home-like environment with kitchen, living room, dining room, and engagement areas. Residents are encouraged to move freely between indoors and outdoors, promoting independence and connection to nature through a beautiful sensory garden.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT SIMPSON<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since 1865, Simpson has met the changing needs and desires of Philadelphia area seniors from diverse backgrounds as a not-for-profit family of services consisting of three Continuing Care Retirement Communities, or CCRCs: Simpson House, Simpson Meadows, and Jenner\u2019s Pond; three affordable senior living communities: Simpson Gardens I, Simpson Gardens II, and Simpson Midtown, as well as Simpson HomeCare and Simpson Rehabilitation.
