Assisted Living Communities in Boyertown, PA

"The manager at Celebration Villa of Exeter was wonderful. She took me around and showed me everything. She sent me a little video of what we had seen that day. My husband had a chance to see the place and we looked at two different types of rooms that were wonderful. It was a clean place. It was friendly. There was a nursing staff 24/7 and that was important to me. It was also in a nice setting where there was some greenery around. It wasn't just like a brick-and-mortar type thing. Every room had a nice view of something that was green and there was a walking spot to go all the way around the buildings so that you could get some exercise, too. The facility was very nice. It reminded me of a New England inn. It had a central fireplace with rooms radiating from it that were kind of glassed-in so you could see in. There was a TV room, a library, a cafeteria area, and a dining hall."

"We chose Columbia Cottage Collegeville for mom because it's a small community, and the caregiver to resident ratio is favorable. They offer a variety of activities and services, and the location was also beneficial. They had 10 levels of care from independent living all the way through to skilled nursing. It is great because she can age in place, and the staff has been amazing. They have three different sized rooms. My mom is in a 312 square foot room (which doesn't sound like much), but it is perfect for a single person. There's a full bathroom with a walk-In shower and pull cords by the bed and in the bathroom for assistance. There are three different sized rooms. They're generally on a wait list, but we happen to call them at a good time. They have one available. It's really like a big home. They have a living room, a TV area, dining room, and kitchen (which is all open for the residents to use as they like). They also have a hair salon onsite, as well as a physical therapy area. They have therapists that come in several times a week and a hairdresser that's there two days a week. They also have a nurse on-staff 24 hours a day, and they're great. If there's any medical assistance needed, they're there. They have various activities like arts and crafts, games, bingo, and movie night. They also have a vehicle, so they can do scheduled transportation to doctor's appointments. There are two courtyards inside the building, so residents can go outside and enjoy them without the risk of anybody wandering off. She likes the food so far."

"The Willow was wonderful. The host that took me around was great. It was very clean. The atmosphere was nice. I liked everything about it. The rooms were very clean. They were a little small but that's normal. I was impressed by how clean it was. It was a one-bedroom, and it was right near the dining area. For activities they were doing bingo. It was nice. It was a good atmosphere."

"Keystone Villa at Fleetwood was very nice. I liked how the room was set up, but I also liked the various activities that they had. There are 133 people there, and the tour guide, Jackie, who's the public relations person, knew everyone we encountered, which says a lot for building that community. I met one of the activity directors, and the person at the front desk was very helpful. The staff was outstanding. It was very orderly, and I liked how they were having a jazz singer for the happy hour, which they do every Thursday. They have the ability to move their furniture to accommodate having things in different places."

"I toured Spring Mill Senior Living. I had the feeling that it was a community, not a hospital. It also had very nice amenities. The staff and the support people there were very nice and very knowledgeable. It was beautiful, gorgeous, very clean, and very orderly."

"I loved Legend of Allentown, but they could not give me the level of care that my dad needed. The facilities were beautiful. It's a new building. It's beautifully done, very homely looking, very inviting, and very clean. They have a lot of pretty areas for the resident to hang out and to have space, out of their rooms. They encourage their residents to spend time out of their rooms, so they don't get isolated. The people seemed very nice, and they seemed to have a lot of good activities. While I was on the tour, they had a group there doing a Christmas concert, so that was kind of nice. I had a very good impression of them. The staff was very kind and very informative. Everyone we met along the way, if you were passing by someone in the hall, was friendly and welcoming."

"We toured The Manor at Market Square. The people were very nice and helpful, and they answered all our questions. It seemed like a caring place. The staff was very good, and she contacted me later, and we talked. It was very clean. The people were sitting in the lobby watching TV, and it seemed like a very nice place."

"The Heritage of Green Hills was so active. It was Halloween and they were having a Halloween party. They were really busy. It's a busy place. But you have to buy into that, and I didn't want to do that. It was nice though. The rooms were very clean and very neat. The size of the room was perfect. They had a buffet for dining, but I don't know if it's always a buffet. They have a huge indoor pool and a beauty salon. They have everything there, and the place is huge."

"My mom is very happy here. she feels safe and cared for. She really likes the size of her room and also has a small kitchenette with a sink. Staff are very friendly. My mom loves to play Bingo. They have birthday celebrations, have singers/performers come to entertain. They go for bus trips to local areas. "

"I toured Hidden Meadows on the Ridge. That's a beautiful place, and that woman that I met with, is a fabulous woman. It's just, everything was great up there, but it's just too costly for me. Even their menu for their dinners and all was fabulous. I come from a cooking family, so that's something I can spot right away. You see a lot when you come in. It's beautiful. I met some people and the people are very happy. That tells you a lot when you see how happy the tenants are. I liked the cleanliness and the care. They're very thorough with every area. They offer everything, doctor's care, doctors that come in that you can use. So, I wouldn't have to take my mother out for appointments. I believe they take your mother or father out to a dentist. They have a contract with the dentist. They will do everything, anything you need. It's just that if you need extra care for your mother, it costs money. There's my demise because we don't have a lot of money."

"Our second choice for my parents would be the Atrium of Allentown. The marketing sales team was good there. They were super helpful. It's a newer facility, so the building is nice. They have a more active memory care facility. Every time we went to visit there, there was always a large group of people doing activities together. The activities there were more robust than what was going on at the other place. They had a lot of onsite services available, too. It's a large rectangle. There's a courtyard for memory care that's accessible for residents. They have a spot where they can go. The tour experience was great. They were very accommodating. It was very good. The staff who gave the tour was great, too."

"Everyone at The Villa St. Elizabeth seemed to be very happy. I met one of the aides who helped me find the tour director. The tour director showed me all around, and she was very good, answered all my questions, gave me information about cost and what I needed to do, the next steps, those kinds of things. They have a library. They also have quite a bit of acreage outdoor spaces, and they have some buildings where people have their apartments. Then they own another mansion that is their dementia care unit. It is a very old mansion, and they've kept a lot of the antiques. Everything was clean."

"Had a great experience visiting this location to see my family. grounds are amazing, residents all seemed so happy and staff was so friendly and accommodating!"

"I toured the memory care of Heather Glen Senior Living. It was very well maintained. A beautiful facility. The person who gave the tour was very knowledgeable and very informative. It was top-notch. It was very good. I saw the dining area and I was very happy with the setup. The attendants were there with the residents and it was very good."
