Redeemer Health will keep St. Joseph Manor at 1616 Huntingdon Pike in Abington Township and Redeemer Lafayette in Northeast Philadelphia, The Philadelphia Business Journal reported.

The health system filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Sunday, November 1. Its board said at the time that it had decided to sell or close its 239-bed Holy Redeemer Hospital, which is next to St. Joseph Manor.

Redeemer Health said this week that it’s deciding between selling Holy Redeemer Hospital and its physician network and “developing a hospital and service line wind-down plan” if the sale is not possible, The Journal said. Its board “determined that divesting the company of its acute care operations provides it with the best opportunity to sustain its life care operations into the future,” the court filings state.

St. Joseph Manor is a senior care and living facility with 296 nursing and 62 personal care beds. From its web page on Redeemerhealth.org:

Nestled in the welcoming community of Meadowbrook in Abington Township, Pennsylvania, St. Joseph Manor offers a comfortable, supportive setting where residents can feel truly at home. Surrounded by mature trees, established neighborhoods, and nearby green spaces, the grounds of St. Joseph Manor offer a peaceful suburban setting where residents can enjoy comfort, connection, and fellowship.

Located adjacent to Holy Redeemer Hospital, St. Joseph Manor combines the comfort of a residential community with the reassurance of trusted medical expertise close at hand. A dedicated team of caregivers and a supportive community environment ensure residents receive compassionate long-term care, skilled nursing services, and expert rehabilitation tailored to their individual needs. 

Families can have confidence in their choice, knowing St. Joseph Manor has earned national recognition as one of U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Nursing Homes of 2026” and Newsweek’s “America’s Best Nursing Homes 2026.”

Redeemer Health also plans to retain its home care and hospice program.

Redeemer Health has $119 million of long-term debt and has not posted an operating profit since 2016. A U.S. Bankruptcy Court judge extended the deadline for Redeemer Health to file its full listings of assets and liabilities until December 31, The Journal said.

Redeemer’s bankruptcy is not expected to immediately affect patient care, no immediate impact is expected for the hospital’s 3,200 employees, and patients should keep their appointments.
