The Best Assisted Living Communities in Delaware County, PA

"Symphony Square was beautiful, it was a lovely place. The director was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. She showed us the rooms and the dining area. The dining area was beautiful, they had silverware and glass and not plastics. They take care of the residents and it's actually a more intimate community which is very nice. They were all lovely people. They have karaoke nights, arts and crafts, they paint together, and there were a lot of cognitive therapy that they do that are fun stuff. They also take the residents on outings. We saw them doing karaoke when we showed up, and everyone looked happy participating. It was also a combination of assisted living and memory care, so everyone got to participate in it."

"We toured Truewood by Merrill, Glen Riddle. It provided everything I felt was necessary for my friend, which is why it will be the one when the time comes. I was impressed that the staff had been employees for a long period of time and that there was not a lot of turnover. I was also impressed that the rooms and the people were very nice. Everything was clean, and everyone was personable. It was my number one choice. The director was the one who gave the tour, and the other was her assistant. I met them both. They were very nice, thoughtful, and informative. I was very impressed with the entire experience."

"We toured Atria Center City. When I walked in it was very clean, and the people were very nice. I was introduced to someone who would show us around. It was me and my aide. He took us all over the place. It's a large place, and everything is nice and beautiful. They told me that if I got a place there my sister would be on the third floor. They had two units, and one was very large. They had a bed there. The only thing that was missing in that unit was a chair. It had a microwave, cooking stove, refrigerator, and lots of closet space. The other room was smaller, but higher than the one I chose for my sister. He said it was seven hundred and seven a month, but the one that I chose for my sister was four something a month, but due to the fact that my sister needs special care, that would be an extra three thousand, he said, and I couldn't afford it."

"Everything was excellent in Merrill Gardens at Glen Mills. The place was like a country club. They cater to all my brother's needs. They let him hang stuff on the wall. They give you a bed and a dresser. Included in the price are all the meals and medication. They put a necklace around his neck, in case he falls. It was fantastic. I'd love for him to go there, but it was pricey. It's $4000 or $5000. The staff answered all my questions and were honest about it, in my opinion. They thought of things that I didn't think of. He loves it. I love it, but I need a VA Aid and Attendance for him to go there, and that could take up to three to six months, if he gets approved. They offered food, but we weren't hungry. The rooms were spacious and clean."

"I liked everything about Fountain View at Logan Square. The location was fantastic. They have a parking garage. The rooms were a nice size. They had a washer and dryer in the room. The rent was a little expensive, but the facilities were nice and clean. The person who took us around was wonderful. He knew his business. A couple of the other people we met were very good. I liked Fountain View. The food looked very appetizing. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and they seemed to know the people that they passed in the hallway. They were friendly, and they knew about other facilities. They tell you, "You should try this one," or "Did you go there?" The atmosphere was very nice. Some of the residents I saw knew each other."

"I toured Daylesford Crossing. It's a wonderful place, with wonderful people and very modern-looking rooms. The staff knows every resident by name, so everybody is on a first-name basis. They took me to their physical therapy room and event room. They were doing some events when I got there. They were having a magic show. They didn't have the level of care that my parents needed, but it was one of the top ones that we liked. They had a very small library. They had someone come once a week to do hair and nails. The gym was the physical therapy room, so it was a smaller room. It was more like an apartment building."

"I like that Atria Lafayette Hill was very clean. The people were very friendly. When I walked in, I didn't feel like I was going into a nursing home. I felt like I was coming into an apartment more so than some of the other places. What I liked about Atria was the fact that it was age-in-place. You can stay in the apartment if you need personal care or if you need any kind of physical assistance. The only time you have to move out of that apartment is if you have to go into memory care. I like the idea that my brother can possibly stay there for a while, and he wouldn't have to move locations. So that's very nice, and I like that. The other thing I like about them is that they don't have a buy-in. They had a community fee that was whatever the rent was for the month. And it only has a hundred rooms, so to me, that wasn't that big. And it was pleasing to the eye. I like the idea that it's a la carte. If they need a little bit of assistance, it's this much more amount, or if they need medication, it's this much more amount. And the staff who gave the tour was amazing. She spent a lot of time with me, and answered all my questions. She was very informative. If she didn't have an answer, she looked it up for me and she got back to me. So that was impressive."

"We looked at Wesley Enhanced Living at Stapeley. The tour was excellent. We had dinner there with some residents, and we liked it. The staff who gave the tour was extremely knowledgeable about the facility. The apartments looked appropriately spacious. The dining area was attractive, and the food was tasty. The facility seemed well maintained."

"My family member lives here and loves it. They are willing to talk to her and food is great."

"The place is beautiful, very nice amenities. The woman at the front desk is so nice and helpful, if you ask her where do you think my loved one she pretty much knows exactly where she is. Food is excellent and friendly staff waiters. If you have a loved one looking for assisted living/ memory care this is the place your looking for."

"Food is very good. Staff is very friendly and considerate."

"I toured Sunrise of Paoli. I've met with Lee, the director of the facility. I was greeted when I first came in. There was a big sign welcoming me. The front desk receptionist was very warm and welcoming. Lee walked me through every possible scenario: the different rooms, the different options, and how the building is laid out. She then walked me through the dining hall and explained the menu and how the daily choices are made. They invited me to play bingo with them, which was fun, and to have a snack. I met the cleaning staff, nursing staff, and other admins. They were all very, very helpful and informative. We took a tour of the different wings of the building to show me different styles of rooms and explain a little bit about each one."

"I toured Pinnacle at Plymouth Meeting. It's outstanding. I wanted to move there. They were fantastic. The rooms were a little on the smaller side, but the building was brand new. The person who gave the tour was fantastic, and the food looked good."
