Does The Mansion at Rosemont have a secured memory care unit?

Yes. The Mansion at Rosemont's DHS certificate approves a Secure Dementia Care Unit with capacity for 18 residents — about 8% of its 221 licensed beds. Pennsylvania regulates these units under 55 Pa. Code §§2600.231–239 rather than through a separate memory care license.

15 of the 36 licensed homes in Delaware County have a secured dementia or special care unit, with a median of 25 beds; The Mansion at Rosemont's 18-bed unit is smaller than most, which some families prefer.

Admission to a secured unit requires a written assessment showing the resident needs that level of protection, and the home must give families a disclosure of the unit's services, staffing and costs. Ask for that disclosure in writing.

The latest inspection summary includes a citation under the dementia-unit rules — ask the staff what was cited and what changed.

How much does The Mansion at Rosemont cost per month?

Pennsylvania does not publish prices for individual homes, so ask The Mansion at Rosemont for its written fee schedule and resident contract. This site's 2026 research puts typical Greater Philadelphia assisted living at $4,800–$6,900/mo, with secured dementia care usually in the $6,200–$8,600/mo range.

Personal care homes in the five counties range from small row-home operations to large campus buildings, and pricing follows: ask whether the rate is all-inclusive or base rent plus care levels, and what triggers a level change.

Medicare does not pay for personal care home or assisted living rent. Community HealthChoices (Pennsylvania's Medicaid long-term-care program) does not cover room and board, and some homes accept residents whose income is SSI plus the state supplement for personal care home residents — see our SSI supplement guide. VA Aid & Attendance and long-term care insurance can also help.

What should you ask when touring The Mansion at Rosemont?

Start with the areas DHS already cited at The Mansion at Rosemont — staff training (including first aid and CPR coverage), building condition and sanitation, food service and kitchen safety — and ask what changed after the inspection; then cover overnight staffing, the full fee schedule and move-out triggers.

• How do you make sure a CPR- and first-aid-certified staff member is on duty for every 35 residents on every shift?
• Who walks the building for maintenance and cleanliness, and how often?
• Who checks food dating and storage, and how are special diets tracked?
• How do you track each resident's annual medical evaluation and follow-up appointments?
• How long have the administrator and the head of resident care been in their roles?
• Is a nurse on site every day, and who covers nights and weekends?
• What happens if a resident runs out of private funds?
• Can we visit at mealtime and in the evening without an appointment?

Visit twice — once at a meal — and read the resident contract before paying anything. If problems come up later, the Long-Term Care Ombudsman can help, and DHS takes complaints at 1-877-401-8835.

How does moving into The Mansion at Rosemont work?

Moving into The Mansion at Rosemont starts with a preadmission screening and a medical evaluation, then a written assessment the home uses to build your parent's support plan.

• Resident contract. Chapter 2600 requires a written contract listing the fee for each service, refund rules and the notice the home must give before a discharge or rate change. Take it home before signing.
• Assessment and support plan. The home assesses each new resident and writes a support plan within the first 30 days, then updates it at least yearly and whenever needs change.
• Secured unit admission. Placement in The Mansion at Rosemont's 18-bed Secure Dementia Care Unit requires a written assessment that the secured setting is needed; ask what would move a resident between the general and secured areas.
• Medications. Ask who administers medications, how they are trained, and whether your parent may self-administer.
• Payment. Rent and care are mostly private pay; ask about deposits, community fees and how a hospital stay affects billing.

Most moves take two to four weeks once a room is available; a hospital discharge can compress that to days, which is when a second set of eyes on the contract helps most.
