“They have just been amazing. Management is very responsive, keeps me informed, and is there for the resident and the family. When my father wanted dippy eggs, they made him dippy eggs. There are varied activities every day, including a fantastic butterfly release. His bathroom is cleaned every day, and maintenance even keeps up a bird feeder outside his window. It's a beautiful facility. The caregivers are wonderful and very encouraging, and they work at keeping his dignity. I definitely would recommend it.”

“We really enjoyed the process of choosing and moving in, and management is very nice and personable. I've eaten here several times; the chef comes out to talk with people, and the food is delicious. I attended bingo, trivia, and crafts with my mom and had so much fun. Housekeeping is friendly and changes the towels every day, and the maintenance man is very responsive and hung pictures for her. The nurse is very thorough. I'm so pleased with the staff and the facility that I would definitely live here myself.”

“When I toured, it was like a diamond in the rough, and I just fell in love with it. It's bright and cheerful, the grounds are kept up, and I love sitting out on the porch in the rockers. Management is very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. The soups are very good, and they offer a variety at each meal. There's always something going on. Every department bends over backwards, everybody greets you, and every person who works here watches out for everyone. I can't say enough about this community.”

“It's a great facility. The staff are good people, and it's a family atmosphere. I live out of state, and they've been 100 percent helpful and responsive any time of day or night. I couldn't care for my uncle from a distance without them. They always try to accommodate him at meals, and he loves his own special spot in the dining room. The building and grounds are spotless every time I visit. They take great care of him, he's very happy there, and I would recommend it.”

The management team is incredibly attentive and genuinely cares about the residents. My dad enjoys the food, and I've noticed a great variety in the dining options. Activities are plentiful, and while he doesn't participate in everything, there's always something happening. Overall, it feels like a welcoming and safe environment, and I would definitely recommend it to others.”

“My loved one is at the community and everyone in management is very professional and very nice and caring and very informative. The dining staff is also fantastic, especially Amy. The food is good and it is warm and the staff is very accommodating and kind and professional. The activities are offered and they seem to have a fantastic program. The activities director is very nice and informative and there are a lot of things to take advantage of. Also, everything is kept spotless. They are hard workers and if you ask them to do something, they will come right in and do it. Lastly, the care staff are informative and professional!”

“We chose this community for my mom because of the size. It's a relatively small population and they were very flexible and accommodating. The management staff are very responsive, always answer and are willing to help. They even help after hours by responding to texts or calls. Plus, the range of activities available is excellent, the care staff are very attentive, and it's an excellent value. We have been absolutely thrilled with the results here!”

Also, the variety of food and the service and everything there, it was just great. The housekeepers were very responsive and they took care of everything. They were very friendly and they came to visit, and maintenance was also was very responsive and very prompt.Everybody is so good and just took care of us and every need that we had!”

“This community is so beautiful and well maintained. Before I came here I was in another community that was horrible. The staff was mean, the food was horrible and the place was dirty but then I came here and thought I was in the Taj Mahal. The staff was so kind and helpful, the food was excellent and it was so clean. The staff is very pleasant to work with, they are very approachable and they are very responsive. I am in a wheelchair so the rod in my closet was too high for me but they lowered it right away for me. The food, activities and cleaning here is also very good, and the caregivers are very kind and always looked out for me. Overall the staff here just knew their residents and their likes and dislikes. I am sad that I have to leave.”

“It is a beautiful place and my mom is definitely safe and comfortable. The food is excellent there, the service is very good, and somebody is always around cleaning.”

Jennie DicolaFamily member · Feb 2024
★★★★★

“It's a really nice holistic approach to each resident. They treat each resident like a person. Everybody is very sincere about their job and they seem to enjoy their job. I’m sure some of them are tired and they don’t show it. If you go to the front desk and ask for someone, you have all these people trying to answer your question or do whatever needs to get done. I think that’s very rare today to have that kind of sincere care. Especially for some dementia patients. They treat them just like everybody else. It’s a really wonderful place.”

Bonnie StaufferOct 2023
★★★★★

“We chose this community because of the large size of the room is what got my attention and the friendliness of the staff was a really big one. I was really impressed by the med techs. It seemed like they were really knowledgeable compared to other facilities.There is very good communication with the staff and the management and the healthcare staff go above and beyond what they are required to do. The housekeeping and maintenance departments are satisfactory and the maintenance man has made himself known and he was right there checking in and making sure he had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend it. I have been super happy with everything so far. I am thrilled. We had her someplace else where she was not getting very good care and I am thrilled with the care that my mom is getting.”

Carolyn CookMay 2023

“All of our questions were answered immediately and very honestly. Beverly and Deb and the person at the main desk are very helpful. Management is very easy to work with and very thorough. I don't know how much they could be much better. They are creative too with some of the things that they are doing there. Everything she has said about the dining has been nothing but stellar. She says the food is all good and she has a lot of choices on the menu. My mother really likes the activities person that runs the department and the creative things that he does. In regards to the housekeeping and laundry, what is nice is that they do each persons wash individually so nothing gets lost and everything in her apartment is spic and span and everything smells nice. The maintenance manager is Felix. If there is anything to be done you just mention it to the front desk or you mention it to him and he puts it right on his list and gets it done immediately. My mother really likes all of the healthcare staff. She has a buzzer around her neck and all they do is press that and it alerts the nursing department. If there is a nurse nearby that is busy then another nurse will take over. They are very, very attentive. The house doctor also worked to get her xrays done in house which was very nice so she didn't have to go out to another facility. The staff are amazing. I would definitely recommend this community. They should keep up the good work. My mother is happy that we found this place.”

“I chose this place for mom because it was nice, clean, bright and cheery looking with lots of natural sunlight coming in, and I've already recommended it to someone. Management has been very nice, responsive and answered all my questions. The food and service is great. They do a good job with activities and she has been out on a few of the outings. The care staff is good about things and we never worry about her. Overall, she feels safe and comfortable there.”

Crystal MossFamily member · Apr 2023

“I would highly recommend the place to anybody. Obviously if they are looking to spend down their assets it's a great place to go to and the staff is wonderful. The place is beautiful, it's clean, I loved the baby grand right out there is the main foyer. You've got the restaurant right there and the salon. It was very homey in there. Deb is absolutely wonderful. She would go above and beyond to work with you. It wasn't like she was just there to sit behind a desk and do her thing. She even went out of her way to get to know my mom while she was there. It goes beyond the desk, she actually does care about the residents.”

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 72 residents; larger communities are inspected and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind.
