The Best Assisted Living Communities in Carbon County, PA

"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."

"I like everything about Whitehall Manor. It's clean, and there's always someone around to help the residents if they want to have something special done. The caretakers are clean, and most of them have masks on them. My friend's room is always clean, and he likes the food. They have a very wide spectrum of entertainment and things to do. They have bingo, services, singing, crafts, and other entertainment. The meals always had a nice presentation. The lighting is good. The hallways are always clear. There isn't anything that needs to be upgraded on my side of things."

"They are fabulous. It is a great place. I am so glad that we took mom there. They are very caring, she is safe and happy, and they are great people. The food is wonderful; it is all homemade."

"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."

"I'm leaning towards Phoebe Allentown. They were very, very nice, I filled up all the applications, gave them the documents they wanted. The apartments were much smaller than what I have here. They have transportation, one meal a day, socialization and activities, and in their continuing care they have assisted living down the street and nursing home. It was clean and it is maintained, there's no problem there. The staff was very wonderful."

"Exceptional experience! The gentleman that toured with us was very knowledgeable and kind. He wanted to know my mom and not just make a sale. Everything was beautiful. The food service was very good and the server was very good. All of our meals delicious and the dessert of chocolate cream pie was fantastic. The rooms are very spacious and laid out well. Vero is also pet friendly which is a huge plus so my mom will be bringing her sidekick Skipper with her. Truly I can't say enough good things about this community!"

"I will move into Atria Bethlehem. I love the room, and the place is very clean. I love the ground, a lot of trees and foliage, and flowers. I'm an outdoor nut, so I like that. There were outdoor spaces to sit and have your coffee, and I could have my puppy. They have a salon to get your hair and nails done. I love the dining room, and it's beautiful, and if I could eat like that every day, I'd love it. Everybody was so friendly and nice. I met some of the residents, who seemed very happy. I told my daughters that I'm going to go where I'm going to be happy. So, all the places I looked at, that was the nicest and most affordable. The staff who gave the tour was excellent, and she explained everything to me."

"The Legend of Allentown provided a warm and inviting family environment. The facility was excellently maintained and very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We worked with the Sales Director who was amazing- she helped our brother find a wonderful apartment and did everything possible to help us prepare for his arrival. She met with our brother in his rehab facility and spent much time helping him understand the facility and was very welcoming to him and our family. The Legend’s front desk staff and the maintenance person were tremendous in preparing his apartment for his arrival. The respect afforded the residents was very evident and was important in our choice. In our preparation for choosing Legend of Allentown, we toured many facilities in the area and none compared to the cleanliness, newness of appearance and the friendliness of staff and residents. We felt at home at the facility even before our brother was due to arrive. As we worked very closely with the Sales Director and ensured all was ready for his arrival, his admission was canceled due to multiple medical emergencies and he eventually passed away before ever going to Legend of Allentown. Our sadness over losing our brother was supported by the staff at Legend who was so kind and caring over our sadness and loss. In summary, we would recommend Legends of Allentown as an excellent facility and a loving destination for a family member and although we could not experience with our brother, our personal experience in preparing for his stay was tremendous."

"I toured Riverton Enhanced Senior Living. It has an open design so that you don't feel like you're in a narrow hall all the time, and it seems to be well supplied with furnishings, so nice atmosphere. The staff was a good communicator, answered all my questions, and seemed to be easy to work with."

"My father has moved into Bethlehem Manor. It's a pretty great place. The staff is very nice. Everybody is coordinated well, so we have no issues. If I have any issues, they usually resolve it immediately. My father is not too good with the cellphone so they Facetime me there pretty much with their Bethlehem Manor's phone, so I'm able to see my father if I'm not able to make it, which is great. It's a really good place. My father has a little studio. He has his bed set up. He has a TV wall-mounted. He has a mini-fridge. He has a wheelchair, so he can pretty much roam around there. He has windows, so he can look outside as well. So it's pretty open, and it's not like he's cramped or anything, which is great. For amenities, they have a large dining room area and an outdoor area, which is more of a patio. They have game nights and music. They have a lot of different types of activities. So my father is kept very busy."

"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!"

"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."

"The Birches of Lehigh Valley is nice and new. The nurses seemed to be doing different things and interacting with the residents. They were very helpful. I saw the menus, and they looked pretty good. The facility is very clean, inside and out. They have big rooms."

"I liked that North Penn Manor was a smaller community and they have more hands on deck. It's a very happy place and I'll be happy to have my friend there. They have two common spaces. One of them was used for multiple purposes, like for entertainment, games, luncheon or supper, or whichever. I liked that. It's used more than once and everybody was very helpful with their residents. The facility was very clean looking and easy to locate."
