Welcome to Longwood At Oakmont Retirement! Longwood at Oakmont is located on 60 acres just Northeast of downtown Pittsburgh, PA.What�s the secret to a perfect day? Having wonderful choices, from cuisine cooked for wellness to cultural outings. Here in Pittsburgh�s Oakmont suburb, we�ve created a retirement community planned around giving you more free time and fabulous ways to spend it. Today you have options.

We make life easier by offering financial choices that allow you to choose the plan that is right for you: LifeCare and SelectCare. What distinguishes Longwood at Oakmont?

We�ve planned carefully for that kind of environment, since we�re not-for-profit: guided by a mission to serve residents, not driven to generate dividends for stockholders.

When trying to decide how to pay for assisted living, one of the first questions that comes up is "How much does it cost?" With the impact of inflation, it's more important than ever to have up-to-date information when making a financial plan for senior living.

Pittsburgh seniors who meet certain eligibility requirements for the Pennsylvania Department of Aging waiver may qualify for financial assistance in order to pay for care within one of the city’s assisted living facilities. In addition, if you receive SSI and need to live in an assisted living facility, the state can pay a supplement to the facility if you qualify.
