THE RESIDENCE AT PEARL STREET CELEBRATES GRAND RE-OPENING

Independent, Assisted & Memory Care Living Community Underwent $3m Renovation

More than 150 people gathered at The Residence Pearl Street (www.residencepearl.com) on the evening of December 10th to celebrate the Grand Re-Opening of Reading’s premier independent, assisted living and memory care community for seniors. Area officials and residents, staff associates, community residents and LCB Senior Living associates joined in celebration, culminating in a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

LCB Senior Living, LLC (www.lcbseniorliving.com) acquired the community in the Spring of 2014, and since then has completed an extensive, $3 million renovation of the building, including the creation of a Reflections Memory Care neighborhood for residents with dementia.

The Residence at Pearl Street is a unique community, offering seniors a unique combination of quiet, suburban living and access to the area’s many resources and attractions. The community includes 87 Independent, Assisted and Memory Care Living apartments. Independent Living residents at the community will have their own apartment with kitchenette and bath, along with the peace of mind of 24-hour security, three gourmet meals prepared and served restaurant style on-site, available laundry and cleaning services, a full activities program, building and grounds maintenance, and a host of optional services. Assisted Living residents have all of the above, along with assistance with the activities of daily living, including dressing, bathing medication reminders, and other services.

The Residence at Pearl Street also includes LCB’s Reflections Memory Care services for residents with early stage Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments. In addition to offering sophisticated cognitive programming and a range of daily services, Reflections is a secure, safe environment with its own common areas, walking courtyard, and other amenities.
