My husband was a resident of Above & Beyond at the Knights for a little over a year, and it was a very good experience. The rooms were very generous, and my husband had a single room. Every room is the same size with its own bath. It's a very nice size. The help was extraordinary. I had great admiration for the work that they did. They were very responsive. They always had a doctor on-site who owned it and ran it. So she was there all the time. Any time there was anything, she would come in the middle of the night to double-check my husband. I can't praise them high enough. They were a wonderful place to have my husband. They have good food. They were always trying to upgrade the facility, either painting or new carpeting. It was an old place. They had plenty of activities. They brought people in and had animals brought in.

Emeritus at Allentown was nice, organized, and clean. The rooms were really nice. The staff was very nice. They tried to help me get in, but we could not afford it. If we could, I would absolutely put Mom there. It had a nice recreational area, and the dining area was nice and clean. It had a private dining room where families can have dinner, if they wanted to, which I thought was really nice.

Brookdale formerly Emeritus at Allentown was fine, and Rita’s room is very spacious and clean. They don’t give her much as far as the furniture; they just gave her a bed and a chair. The staff is very nice, and the dining area is very big. They have a lot of parking, but we have a lot of stuff to take, and they don’t have accommodations for that. This gentleman -- he was like a janitor -- was very nice to give me a flat bed. If it wasn’t for that, we would have been really stuck. It’s a very long hallway to the elevator, and they should have some other means to be able to get their personal belongings back to their room.

Emeritus or Brookdale at Allentown is very nice, and I was impressed with it. It’s an older facility -- 26 years older -- but the rooms are of nice size and clean. The food is good, you have choices, and the staff is lovely. The activities are very limited. They are appropriate for people on their 80 and 90s. They have a nice dining room and library which is nice too. There’s a lot of windows, and the grounds were well kept.

My uncle is in Emeritus of Allentown but it become one of the Brookdale communities. The bedrooms are nice size. They come complete with a bed, a dresser and a chair. It’s the right place for my uncle. The staff seems to be fine. The people there seem to be very friendly towards him and he seems to be enjoying himself there. Trying to coordinate things with them is difficult but other that, everything seems to be fine. I sat with him a couple of times during a meal because I happened to be there during dinner time but I have not eaten there. I think initially he doesn’t know what he was eating, he didn’t know how to order the food and that kind of stuff but that time he ate everything so I’m guessing the food is fine. There’s some things scheduled pretty much all day. They have a happy hour on Fridays, took them to a couple of restaurants for lunch, some sort of volleyball games and movies. My uncle goes to bingo a couple of times a week and he was shooting hoops from a wheelchair too.

My mom has been at Emeritus for about three weeks now. The facility is beautiful, and the staff is great. The food, from what I understand from my mom who is a cook herself, is not good. She has a really nice private room that's very big and came with a bed, a recliner, and a night table. There isn’t anything I didn’t like about the place. The person in charge is great and very knowledgeable. I like the fact that they knock on the residents’ doors if something is happening, like special movies being shown or if they’re going to play a game. They’re taking care of all my mom’s needs.

Emeritus was great. The staff was extremely nice. I would recommend this place, but we don’t want to move my loved in right now.

My mother-in-law has been living in Emeritus at Allentown since February. It's a nice place. She thinks the food could be a lot better and that they should have more programs for them. Some of the people that we met were extremely helpful. They're right on top of every situation. They get back to us immediately with any kind of problem that comes up, and if you have any questions, they get right back to you. They have a high turnover of kitchen help and also for the personal care assistance. I don't think the employees are being paid enough. Her room is very nice, larger than any of the other places that we've seen. It's like a double room where two people could go in. They take them on weekly outings to different places, lunch, shows, and baseball games. She doesn't usually participate because they usually leave by 10:00 a.m., and she is not a morning person. They have exercise programs, bingo, and card games, and entertainment comes in sometimes. They could do more recreational things for the clients. There were a few people outside, but they don't really seem to utilize the grounds very much.
