The facility is nice looking around. The care services on the assisted living unit looks poor. I saw call lights on and hear people complaining about their long wait times for care needs. The food was terrible. Residents told me the food was bad and I agree after having lunch there. I spoke with the lady who is in charge of Health Care. She was nice but was not able to answer all my questions.. I was on the 2nd floor and saw the doctor’s office that was empty and lights were off at 10 in the morning. There were 2 women outside this office complaining. Not good signs to me when considering making a decisions for moving into a CCRC. I will keep looking.

The Philadelphia Protestant Home was nice inside, and they offered everything, but they were a little more expensive. The staff who showed me around was nice and knowledgeable. I saw one room and it was nice. The whole facility was very nice.

The Philadelphia Protestant Home was amazing. I guess the facility was amazing. The person who gave me the tour was very professional, very uplifting. The facility top to bottom, is just amazing from the residents giving input in saying hello as I'm walking in. Just the activities, overall it is exactly what I would feel comfortable with my mother being in their hands. I think it was friendly, with huge activities, and libraries, and I feel like that is one of the best facilities. As of right now, that is my number one choice. I got into the mid-level and the suite, a very nice-sized room. There are electronics which come with it and a refrigerator that also comes with it, the bathrooms are very accessible, very safe, and a nice, spacious size for one to live and be comfortable. It's like having an efficiency apartment. This place has a recreational room. It has a fitness room. I got to see the library as well as where they do the arts and crafts. They have a salon there. I got to meet the lady who does the residents. Overall, I would say, from just having an interaction with everybody, it was a very positive atmosphere, and I would recommend it.

I went to The Philadelphia Protestant Home. I was there to visit them about a possible respite stay for my mother during the holidays. It was a lovely facility, what I saw. But because my mother needs a memory care unit, and they did not have respite stay for memory care. It was a lovely facility, what I saw, but I did not visit the memory care. I was able to tour the independent living and assisted living. I would give the staff a 4 because I had to do a lot of follow-up with her. Like she would tell me this would happen, she was going to set up an appointment with the director of nursing, so that's why I gave her 4 because she was good, she showed me around, but as far as follow through, I think the follow through could have been better. I did not try the food, but I did see the different restaurants and the dining halls. They were excellent. I would feel comfortable putting my mother there if they had the services that she needed. The people I saw were engaged. They were high functioning. Most of the people that I saw were independent.

I went two times a week to The Philadelphia Protestant Home. I met friends through the classes I attended there. They've been on lockdown so I haven't been back there since 2019. I think they care about the people that go there, they're not only helping the residents but also helping the community. A lot of people come from outside to use the swimming pool, the gym, and attend class. We love the gym, I go there three times a week. They have a dining room that the public can go to if they want. I mean, they have everything that you possibly could want. They have a very nice surrounding, they had like a little fish pond that the residents go and see and relax. I mean, it's simply beautiful. It was really pleasant, and everybody loves it there.

We thought that The Philadelphia Protestant Home was where we're going to end up going, but it turned out to be undesirable in terms of price and facilities compared to other places. It's been there a long time and has a German background. We visited there several times, and the people who lived there loved it. They had a pool, a bowling alley, crafts room, a greenhouse, and really nice gardens to walk in with picnic shelters and lots of benches and flowers. They had a wonderful entry area with a fireplace and an open room. The staff was very helpful and gave us great tours twice. The only thing that was off-putting was that it costs $77,000 a year for an extremely small room. My brother-in-law is 6'2" and only in his 70s, so it's like putting him in a closet. We didn't have the money and I didn't want to put him in a box, so that's the only reason we didn't move there. They had continuous care and a good program. It's very lively, and I liked it a lot.
