Assisted Living Communities in Allison Park, PA

"Harmony at Harts Run is where my mother-in-law is going to be placed. We have put down a deposit. There was a lot to offer at all of the places, but it seemed like Harmony at Harts Run had the most. It was the prettiest as far as the rooms and the bathrooms. They really seemed to pay good attention to details. We dealt with Courtney, and she was very nice. We met another lady, and she was very helpful, too. So, I'm very hopeful that this is going to be great. We saw the menu, and it looked good."

"The Haven at North Hills was very lovely. All of the rooms were private and very spacious. It was very clean, very bright, and cheery. The dining room was beautiful. They were having some activities while we were there. There were residents attending the activities who seemed to be having a good time."

"The rooms that they showed us at Graceful Care Living just had a bed in them, and that's it. We knew immediately when we got there that that wasn't what we were looking for. The staff mentioned that they have another section for people who are more independent. However, it was still somewhat the same concept. Instead of being in a room, like a small, single room, there were two beds. There was no television in those independent rooms. You have to go out of the room to watch television. It was that type of atmosphere, and my mother doesn't want that. She wants something that's like a small apartment, where she can live in that small space and be able to care for herself. I liked the atmosphere. I liked the staff. They're very nice and very accommodating as we went through the tour. My mom asked questions, although she didn't ask very many because she knew, and I could tell just from how she was withdrawn that she was like, "No, this is not going to work for me." I said it to the guy. I said, she's a lot more independent. She can get around fairly well, but this is not for her. She still needs to be in her own place where she can take care of herself. The only thing that she needed was somebody to help her, like to come in and help her to make sure that she's taking her meds. I didn't smell anything. It was very clean."

"My great uncle is a current resident. The facility has lots of great activities, updates throughout the building, and a caring staff. The room he is in is kept very clean, as well as the rest of the common areas. He also really enjoys the meals!"

"My mom is here. I have never been in it, but I saw my mom twice and she looked good. She was clean and well cared for. Supposedly they have activities, but I don't know what they are. My mom has dementia so everything is wonderful. She thinks the food is good in her opinion. In her state of mind, the food is good. The staff all seems to be good."

"The place was fabulous. It was very warm and welcoming. The people were so wonderful, explaining everything, all the wonderful features that the facility has. We went down the hall and literally walked through the whole entire thing, seeing each of the rooms: the art room, the library, and the music room. We went upstairs to see the beauty shop and then across from that is the dining area. And then we looked at two different rooms. The models are set up gorgeous. I wish that they rented them furnished because that would have been perfect for what we need. But anyway, beautiful setup. I can't say enough good things about it. The exercise room was full of people. There was a class there. There were people in the swimming pool. I did see those two classes going on, and there's lots of walking trails there. I used to work in that area, so I know the area very well, and I actually used to go on those walking trails way before it was even built. What I like about it is that you have the month-to-month rental, because a lot of the other places charge a huge upfront amount. And if something happens the next day or days later or months later you don't get any of that money back. It just is all absorbed. So, I really like that."

"AP is a real find! You can't do better for cost, living accommodation & staff. Staff is helpful, friendly & attentive & takes care to ensure residents can be interactive & have some fun with games, movies & a great outdoor space for warm weather. Timely housekeeping/laundry & food is very good. We had excellent access to staff & Director - all very easy to talk with and always addressed needs/issues timely-even immediately when possible. Staff was empowered to take responsibility - no passing the buck, always willing to help. They treated our relative like their own & still treated us like family with kindness & caring after the passing of our loved one. Could not have asked for more. Highly recommend."

"We toured Juniper Village at Forest Hills. The room was very big and clean, and the people were very nice. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and they have a craft area."

"I toured. Mike was very personable and very knowledgeable. He showed me around the whole facility and a sample room and how the setup was with my mom. They were doing some activity, so I got to see a little bit of what they had going on at the facility. It had a very personable, friendly atmosphere. I did not have a meal, but they said they had a personal cook on staff that made meals fresh, which I liked."

"I went to Juniper Village at South Hills. Everybody there was very nice. The administrator was very nice, friendly, and very thorough with the walkthrough. They're going through renovations. And so the place is immaculate. It's beautiful. The apartment sizes like the studios are a nice, decent size. And then they have the one-bedrooms, and those are also nice. And what they're doing as residents move out, they're renovating each room individually to just update them. And so it is a lovely place. It's so clean and so friendly, and a great atmosphere. My mother has an onset of dementia. So even the lockdown wards, if once they evaluated her, she would be in a lockdown ward. But as long as she has an aide with her, she's able to go outside and do everything, she just can't do it independently. And they've got plenty of recreational areas and little like snack downs if you will. So if they want to have like an afternoon snack or a drink or something like that, that is all available. They have plenty of activities. I looked at the activity calendar and they've got a lot of stimulating activities. Also, I looked at a sample of their menus and it had a lot of great food choices."

"The first impression I had of Brookdale Mt. Lebanon was that it was a quietly cheerful place. The staff was cheerful and the residents were cheerful. There are nearly 200 residents there. They have little dogs on leashes. I hear there are cats. The place is furnished in a way that is comfortable and safe for seniors who have physical difficulties, as I do. As things go, the cost is moderate, considering the highs and the lows of this line of business. I only interacted with two people and they were competent. There's just a relaxed, contented quality about the whole place and everybody that I met and they invited us to come back to try their meals. We saw two studio apartments. One was much smaller than the other. I loved the small one, and that's the one we're still talking about. I did not see a list of activities, but I didn't need to. From what we walked around and saw, there is a little bit of everything."

"We toured Locust Grove. We liked it. It was pretty nice. We saw a typical room. We walked up to the cafeteria. We looked at their activities schedule and meal schedule. The rooms would come with small refrigerators. I think they said that some people could put a coffee maker in there, but there wasn't a whole lot of room there. So if you were the first person in there, there's room for a couch and a chair, but if you were the second person in there, and someone else already had one in there, then that wouldn't work. The staff who toured me around was very helpful."

"I visited one place, and that was Apple Blossom Senior Living. It was very clean. No smell. It was very quiet and very spacious, too. The staff was very informative. She took her time. She gave me a complete review. We visited the whole building and the benefits that they have available. I was provided with a daily itinerary of activities, what was scheduled for that day, and what was offered to the residents. It wasn't active at that time, but they have a daily schedule of activities, so that was very nice."
