Whitetail Springs Assisted Living & Memory Care Community
Whitetail Springs Assisted Living & Memory Care Community
Whitetail Springs Assisted Living & Memory Care Community is a licensed assisted living facility located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, specializing in memory care services for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Pennsylvania Assisted Living Facilities (also known as Assisted Living Residences) provide housing with personal care services.
Services typically include assistance with activities of daily living (bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, eating), medication management, meals, housekeeping, laundry, social and recreational activities, transportation, and 24-hour staff availability. Some facilities offer specialized memory care.
Who We Serve: Assisted Living Facilities serve older adults and people with disabilities who need help with daily activities but do not require the 24-hour skilled nursing care provided in nursing homes.
Memory Care Services: This facility offers specialized memory care services, including staff trained in dementia care techniques, activity programming designed for cognitive engagement, and appropriate safety measures. When evaluating memory care options, families should consider staff training, staff-to-resident ratios, security features, and the approach to managing behavioral symptoms.
Licensing: Typically licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services.
Payment Options: In Pennsylvania, Medicaid may help pay for assisted living through the Community HealthChoices. Eligibility is based on both financial and functional criteria. Contact Pennsylvania Department of Human Services or visit https://www.dhs.pa.gov/Services/Assistance/Pages/Medicaid-LTSS.aspx to learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply. Wait lists are common for waiver programs, so applying early is recommended.
Families researching assisted living options should verify the facility's current license status, review any inspection reports, and schedule a visit to assess whether the environment and services meet their loved one's needs. For more information about assisted living regulations in Pennsylvania, visit Pennsylvania Department of Health.
Licensing requirements and regulations may change. We recommend verifying current requirements directly with your state's licensing agency.

My mother has been a resident at Whitetail Springs for 2 months now and I am very happy we found her such a wonderful new home. The facility is clean and homey, she has been well cared for and enjoys the company of the friendly staff and other residents. As hard as it was to realize I could no longer care for her at home, it is really nice to see her doing so well and to feel good about the choice for her care that we made.
We recently moved our mom into Whitetail Springs and are very happy with the welcome she received from all levels (executives, nursing, maintenance team, cleaning services)! The staff has been extremely accommodating to her and helpful with her transition to a new place. The communication and assurance we have received since moving her in has also been great and something we did not see at her previous home. It's great to see such personalized care being offered. Everyone has been very compassionate and understanding with her and we feel a sense of relief knowing she is finally in good hands. Tons of activities to keep her busy and engaged. Her room is very nice and the home is updated/clean! Also love all the common areas and outdoor space.
At Whitetail Springs Memory Care Facility, the staff and care team keep residents engaged with a variety of activities. The environment is positive and stimulating enough for the type of care that is being provided, but also calm and promotes happy memories with the "homely" decorations and not a facility or institutional feel. Residents also have the freedom to move around the facility comfortably and go into an enclosed courtyard outside on the nicer days, which is important for their well-being. I've also been impressed with the responsiveness of the executive team. Any concerns I've raised have been addressed promptly and effectively. While in-home care is always ideal, Whitetail provides the next best thing. They ensure my mother, is kept clean, safe, well-fed, entertained, and most importantly, comfortable. That's all we can ask for at this stage of the disease.
Mom loves Whitetail Springs. The aids and nurses are wonderful and caring. They will stop what they are doing just to say hi and give your loved ones the special attention they need. The rooms and facility is always clean and well kept. Ive attend a family gathering picnic there and the food is very good. Always a ton of activities to keep mom going. I couldn't think of a better place for her. Thank you Whitetail for making moms stay there so amazing.
I visited and compared three facilities in the South Hills for a place to move my 97 y.o. father. Cost was a concern but not the overriding factor. I am very pleased with Whitetail and its staff. My questions and concerns are promptly addressed and answered via phone or e-mail. Jenn is particularly helpful in seeing that packages and mail are delivered to my father and she even reads the cards since his eyesight is poor. Tara and her nursing staff communicate regularly and thoroughly explain changes in meds or treatment. I made the correct decision selecting Whitetail Springs.
