Bensalem In-Home Care Services
Located on the southern edge of Bucks County, Bensalem, Pennsylvania is a thriving community positioned right along the outskirts of Philadelphia. One of our founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin, would often visit Bensalem to see his friend, Joseph Galloway, at Growden Mansion. During the time, the Galloway family were owners of the entire area we know as Bensalem Township. Some Bensalem citizens even rumor that Benjamin Franklin conducted his famous kite-flying experiment in Bensalem at the Growden Mansion!
Bensalem has many notable destinations suited for people of all ages! Some include:
- Neshaminy Mall - Built in 1968, this was one of the first malls to be constructed in the U.S. It is home to various retailers as well as an AMC 24 Theater.
- Penn Community Bank Amphitheater- This popular outdoor concert venue accommodates over 3,000 people in an open lawn-style seating. The location is open for outdoor concerts throughout summer.

Census

It is located right off I-95 making it an easy drive to or from the town. When traveling by train, there are two different lines available. Both the Trenton Line and the West Trenton Line offer transportation towards Philadelphia or Trenton. Additionally, the Trenton line can be taken to the Cornwells Heights station, where Amtrak is available for long-distance travel. Multiple bus routes also exist that provide transportation through the state.
These transportation options are great to have, however getting to the actual public transportation facility may be a difficult task especially during unideal weather situations.

Bensalem Senior Caregivers
February 26, 2018
The whole team of Comfort Keepers was very helpful and patient when caring for my grandmother who suffered from dementia. This was what we were worried about most from seeking the help of people who were not related to her, but they ended up treating her like she was family.
Thank you everyone!
