“My mom has made a complete turnaround since she got here. She smiles now, and she's made friends with the people at her table who look out for each other, which is so sweet. Management was very accommodating and helpful with the move-in. The activities director does a great job, and when my mom joins in, she loves it.

Her housekeeper does an amazing job, kudos to the maintenance man, and the nurses have been wonderful. We compared other locations, and we're very happy.”
“Management listens to my concerns, and when they tell me they're going to do something, it usually happens. The dining staff are very friendly and show a lot of kindness to the residents. The activities staff is very good and sincere with my mother, and they bring in a lot of different musical acts and other unusual things, not just the same old bingo.

“My mom lives here and I've recommended three people there already. It's a clean environment, it's a safe environment, I don't worry about her and she is getting tremendous care. Their management is very capable, caring and if something needs getting done, it gets done. They go out for lunches, they go places, and the activities are good. Overall, she feels comfortable there and the care staff do an excellent job. I know most of the care staff and they're all very nice people.”

“My father is at the community and from what we see for activities, it looks good. For Father's Day when we were there, they had top hats and bow ties and she was putting them on and taking pictures. They gave him a gift bag with a card and some candy and a wooden decorative statue thing and it was cute. Also, the housekeeping is excellent. My brother was there the other day when they came in to clean the apartment and he said that nothing was left untouched when she was done cleaning the apartment.”
“The staff here is very accommodating and welcoming and they helped my mom get settled in well. They also provide nice activities, they keep the building clean and nice and the care they provide is nice as well.”
“When we went to tour this community it was very nice and the people are very friendly. It is centrally located. The VA is right there and my uncle's church is not too far away. Noreen the executive director is extremely friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I have an aunt who lives out of town and gets anxious and she is high strung and Noreen really eased her mind that my uncle was going to be in a good place. The care staff are absolutely wonderful as well. My uncle enjoys the food and it always smells good when I am there. For the activities, there are plenty. My uncle especially enjoys music and dancing and they have a DJ that comes in to play music. The housekeeping and maintenance are wonderful too. The place and my uncle's room is always clean. I would recommend this community to others.”

What these terms mean
DHS inspects each personal care home and assisted living residence every year and investigates complaints and unusual incidents. Each inspection report lists the type of inspection, why it happened (for example renewal, complaint or incident), and each violation of the state rules (55 Pa. Code Chapter 2600 for personal care homes, 55 Pa. Code Chapter 2800 for assisted living residences) with the home’s plan of correction. A complaint inspection with no violations means DHS cited nothing at that visit. Violation titles are DHS’s own short names for each rule. A provisional license is issued when a home is in substantial but not complete compliance with the rules; a home can hold up to four in a row, six months each. When DHS gives notice of a fine, the fine is charged per resident per day only if the violation is not corrected by the deadline. Violation classes: Class I means a substantial probability of death or serious harm, Class II a substantial adverse effect on health, safety or well-being, Class III a minimal effect.
DHS posts a Licensing Inspection Summary for each inspection. Its directory notes that some results may not appear while its systems are being upgraded; if one is missing, contact the department. This community is licensed for 47 residents; larger communities are inspected and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind.
