"We toured The Residence at Whitehall. They were very nice, but they were above what we could afford. They showed us the studio apartment, which would have been too small for us. We saw the common areas like the lobby, the dining areas, and the craft rooms. They were well-maintained."

"I toured the assisted living facility of Paramount Senior Living-Bethel. It is in a nice area, and it's very clean. I would say it is very well-appointed. It makes a very good entrance when you go in. The grounds are nice, the lobby is beautiful, and the dining area is beautiful. The facility itself is nice. When you go upstairs to the assisted living, the rooms are very nice. They have very good rooms, and you don't see a big difference between the independent area and the assisted living area. They kind of blur the line pretty well. I think it's because they may use a lot of the same rooms, and they just increase the care as you need it, so they don't have a separate area. The people were nice, and the activities seemed to be very nice. They have a nice outdoor courtyard. It's a nice place, and the people are very nice and seem like they were attentive. There was no question that if we thought my mother could handle personal care, that's the place we would have sent her to. We have put money down for it, so we were disappointed that she couldn't go there. During the tour, they showed us the dining area, activities area, and I guess you could call it a living room. It's just like a lounge area where you could sit and talk, watch TV, or read a book."

"I like The Grand Residence at Upper St Clair because they have spacious accommodations for the residents. Their apartments are bigger, so that's nice. It looks like their food is really good. The atmosphere and the way they're decorated is very fundamentally different when you think about a quintessential nursing home. The person who guided me was Christopher, and he was great. They showed me a menu for the week. It's a very diverse menu. People from outside of the facility can eat there, and they have to pay of course like a restaurant. I think they take a lot of pride in their food. All of the common areas are very nice. The apartments are a little older than the other places I looked at, but they're clean and well-kept."

"I have nothing but praise for all of these employees. They are always cheerful, patient and glad to help. They even get a message to my dad when he doesn't answer the phone. There are plenty of activities and my father is happy with the food. "

"My mom moved in. The people are just so personable. Every single person is brought out to the community room. They are very attentive. They walk to the units and ask if the patients would like a cup of coffee. It is definitely like a family. The facility is beautiful. They have a hair salon. The activities are wonderful. Every day, I can see them out there doing word games. They have music. If there's an anxiety-ridden patient, they'll have themselves and other patients around them trying to calm the patient, holding their hand, saying the rosary, and all kinds of things to help calm the patient. It's like they're caring for their mother. The food is excellent."

"My mom moved into Whitetail Springs Assisted Living and Memory Care. We chose it because their care level was higher than the other places we went to. She's got dementia, and the thing that made our decision for us was that they checked on her more in the evening. They have motion sensors in the room. So if she moves or starts to wander, it triggers, and they scoop her up before anything happens. This place had a higher level of security at night. Her apartment was the biggest one that they had available. It's very large and it's like a nicer hotel room. It's a very nice place. She likes the food. They feed her quite well and are very attentive. They'll make something else for her if she doesn't like something. So they have some flexibility there. They keep them busy and have a lot of activities that are suited to their needs of the people who are there. The cost was very similar to what we would be paying elsewhere, maybe a bit higher, but given the extra layer of care they put on in the evening, it's worth it."

"My mom moved into Woodcrest Senior Living Community last Monday. I love the community. It's safe. The employees are completely wonderful. They're all polite and accommodating. I've never seen a high level of care. The place is clean as clean can be. They have a chapel. They have a lot of Christian-based things going on there, like Bible studies, which I like. It's great. There's nothing I don't like about it. It's beautiful. And they do everything for my mom. The staff is great. I've never seen people like that. They're polite and well-groomed. They do their job, and it's amazing. I've never really seen anything like this because I've gone to some places and been in places where people are taken care of, and it's way above the rest. They have all kinds of activities. They have bingo and games. They have a puzzle room. They have a chapel. They have church on Sundays for the people. They have music. Sometimes people come in and play. They had a chalk artist there last week. There's always something going on. They post activities every day, what's going on, what time and where, so people can go to what they want to be a part of. It's nice. We compared it with other homes out in the area. This place is way above the rest. It's an amazing place."

"All new decorated rooms, floors, painted wall, new toilets, mattress, as well as kitchen, reading room, meeting room, every inch of this home has been touched and made more comfortable, more accessible, to its residence. The food is great, the care, the staff, all helpful, and at beckoning call when needed. Our 1st cousin has been there for five years. He needed more help than we could have given him,…. Sycamore Estates was the answer."

"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 the assisted living facility of Celebration Villa of Lakemont Farms in Bridgeville. The people who gave the tour were very pleasant. The rooms I saw were smaller, but the upkeep is very nice. The dining area was big. The parking area was also good. I was able to find a parking space."

"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."

"All needs are met at this facility with compassion and love. Large rooms, good food, a variety of things to do. Indendance with assistance if needed."

"Wonderful! Mom has lived at Halcyon for 8 months and has thoroughly enjoyed it even though she was reluctant to move at first. Each staff member knows more than her name. They can tell you what mom enjoys doing and talking about. Mom has made many friends. The staff and residents are warm and welcoming. The residence is small enough that it truly feels like home, not an institution. All of her needs are met while treating her with dignity and respect. Help arrives promptly when needed. The facility is spotless and the outdoor patio is second to none. A true gem!!"
