Nestled in the small, charming area of Wyomissing, Columbia Cottage has a unique appeal to those who live here. With our lively, energetic staff, we’ve created a fun-loving environment focused on bringing our residents daily delight. We get to know each individual’s personalities and preferences so we know which activities, conversation topics, and little gestures will spark a sense of fun and happiness.
When you are a part of Columbia Cottage, you are part of a charming community nestled within the unique small town of Wyomissing. We enjoy a close connection with the community in which we live and work. We enjoy inviting those from within the Wyomissing community to come visit, and we also encourage interaction with local businesses. You’ll be able to enjoy the welcoming community of Cottage residents, but also benefit from nearby local resources.
From the daily tasks we perform to the time we spend engaging with you, we know that we are providing our best when we are serving you. We get to know who you are, your preferences, and focus on how we can best meet your needs. We are committed to providing higher standards in all of our actions, creating a family atmosphere, and delivering person-centered care.
Columbia Cottage Wyomissing is in a class all on its own. Our engaged, caring team creates a warm, fun-loving environment, even as they look for opportunities to interact with residents on a personal level every day. Our employees make the biggest impact on residents’ lives, and we intentionally seek out outstanding individuals to be a part of our outstanding team.
Sharing a meal with others is more than just eating: it’s building community. We focus on providing high quality, good-tasting food to set the right atmosphere for enjoying others’ company while being nourished. Our team ensures everyone has dining companions when desired. The food we serve complements the social atmosphere by offering traditional “comfort foods” as well as delicious new recipes. All of our meals fall within the guidelines of health and nutrition requirements.
We go above and beyond to entertain our residents and ensure each person has a great day, every day. On our Activities Calendar you’ll see we celebrate every holiday, even those inspired by our internal team. It’s not unusual to celebrate “Favorite Disney Character Day” as passionately as Valentine’s Day. At Wyomissing, we celebrate each day and the quality relationships we can build in it.
We take joy in helping our residents plan their day with activities and experiences that encourage building connections, exercising minds, or simply relaxing with others. We offer a wide range of activities in order to engage people with different interests and abilities. Each activity is designed to help you connect with your neighbors, Caregivers, volunteers, and your family. We have our “usual” fun and games, but we are known for constantly adding new activities, especially tied to holidays and the seasons.
