The community supports residents living independently, those requiring assistance with activities of daily living, and those with dementia, Alzheimer's, and other memory challenges, providing daily cueing, reminders, and patient, familiar care. A distinctive feature allows couples to share the same apartment even when they require different levels of care, enabling them to remain together rather than relocate to separate facilities.
Apartments at The Grand Residence are approximately 30% larger than average for senior living, with room for residents' own furniture, space to host family visits, and accommodation for pets. The community operates a restaurant where meals are cooked from scratch by chefs, and residents can dine when hungry and choose where to sit. Weekly outings include scenic drives, parks, local restaurants, and shopping, while daily activities encompass exercise, art, music, faith services, and social programs.
The community has been family-owned and operated since 2001, when it was built by Kathi and Bill Polachek, who designed it as a place they would want to live themselves. Their daughter Melissa now helps run the operation, and the Wellness Coordinator, who joined in 2006, rose through the same team she now leads. Visitors are welcome at any hour, and grandchildren can stay overnight.

The staff is always friendly and helpful. We have loved all the ways they integrate the surrounding community into their activities and programs. And the food and dining experience has always been top notch with many family celebrations having taken place in the dining areas.

Mom has been at The Grand for 5 years. They take excellent care of her and keep me in the loop at all times. I visit almost every day.

My mom was at The Grand in January 2026. We found the staff to be caring and kind. The administration was exceedingly kind and great to work with and were definitely focused on making sure my mom was comfortable and cared for. They were responsive to our questions and concerns while she lived there, not just while we were trying to find the best place for her. The Grand was a great place for my mom.

I have been a resident of Pittsburgh's South Hills and a practicing attorney for many years. In my practice, I have had a number of clients who moved into various assisted living facilities in the Pittsburgh area. Consequently, I have had many opportunities to visit various facilities, and discuss their services and financial issues with their management. When asked to recommend an assisted living facility, I always highly recommend the Grand Residence at Upper St. Clair. The Grand Residence has a solid reputation and an experienced staff, and the building is beautiful. The dining room not only serves delicious food (as I was served during several meetings), it provides a “restaurant” style atmosphere unlike the cafeterias maintained by other facilities. As a family-owned business, the Grand Residence has “hands-on” management that promotes an open discussion between the staff and the residents.

Having had several family members who needed assisted living services over the years, I speak from experience. All of the senior living facilities out there are beautiful, but the Grand Residence at Upper St. Clair is , simply put, a cut above. The place is beautiful. The food is exceptional. The apartments are the most spacious that I have seen. At the core of this place, most importantly, are management and staff who have a genuine passion for what they do. When you want an answer to a question or you have a concern, you get it and you get it quickly from people who understand and care . Being somewhat of a "foodie", if the Grand Residence was a restaurant, it would have Michelin Stars. Most importantly, they really care about your loved one!
