Multiple one- and two-bedroom apartments are available in Glen Hazel Center, an independent living and skilled nursing facility with an Alzheimer's unit. Staff members provide 24-hour skilled nursing care, Alzheimer's and memory care, short-term rehabilitation, hospice care, pastoral care, social services and respite care. The center offers free stroke and blood pressure screenings, holds blood drives and provides educational programs for area residents.

Community features include in-room monitoring, Wi-Fi access and a fitness center. Staff and volunteers organize outings to PNC Park, the mall and other local interests. They also arrange surprises such as visits from the Pirate Parrot, the Major League Baseball team's mascot, or Frownie Brownies for dessert, the iconic treat from the Kings Family Restaurant chain. Many residents participate in local fundraising activities for The Ronald McDonald House, The Alzheimer's Association and The American Lung Association.
