"The Pennsylvania Soldiers' & Sailors' Home provides personal, skilled nursing and memory care in a safe, secure and caring environment," said Barbara Raymond, PSSH commandant. "We welcome the public to stop by to take a tour, meet our staff, enjoy refreshments, participate in activities and experience the camaraderie of living with fellow veterans."

"Our commonwealth is fortunate to have the fourth largest veterans' population in the country and the Pennsylvania Soldiers' & Sailors' Home celebrates our veterans who reside here every day," said Raymond. "We are privileged to care for the men and women who served and sacrificed to keep us safe and protected our freedoms from as far back as World War II to the present."

If you are a veteran or the spouse of a veteran with health care needs, please contact the home to discuss your eligibility for long-term care options available to you.
