ACE Center breaks ground

Posted on: Aug 23, 2016

Ground has broken on the site of PPh’s new Arts, Culture, Education (ACE) Center.

The dog days of summer are officially upon us, and the look ahead to fall has begun. Along with different color leaves and Eagles football, fall is ushering in a new beginning of sorts with one of the most exciting initiatives to ever take place on our campus. What was once just an idea and artist rendering now is in full construction mode. Once complete, the ACE Center will be home to a pharmacy, integrated wellness center, library, and artisan space.

The ACE Center will also include three additional rooms for those residents who require memory care services in our Chapters program. The ACE Center presents a tremendous opportunity for PPh to continue to grow and serve the community in and around it. We are excited for the steps already taken and look forward to celebrating the grand opening with our family in the coming months ahead!

What Residents Say

"In my nine years at PPH, I’ve grown to like it very much. At first, I felt like a stranger and then as I began to talk to people, we increasingly became good friends. A way to meet people is to join clubs. I’m now part of the PPH Auxiliary. I love helping with their flea markets because you never know what you can find. Recently, I’ve joined an evening quilting class. I love that I can continue to enjoy my life outside of PPH while experiencing the offers here.…especially the pool! Everything is just so convenient.

– Lucille Hite, Independent Living resident

What Families Say

"My mom is sooo happy at PPH, I can’t even describe it in strong enough words. She’s met so many new friends and these ladies do EVERYTHING together! She sees Dad every day in Pathways, but can have her life too. She’s gone to so many activities and I think I’ve already been to Scoops with her at least 15 times. She loves the dining room and Bistro too. My sister, Ilene, and I are so delighted that Mom is happy.......Wow, it feels like Mom’s been there about 2 years—but it’s only 2 months!! That’s how comfortable and natural it feels for her – and for all of us.

– Rhonda Frenkel, daughter of resident Bernice Segal
