Assisted Living Communities in Latrobe, PA

"It is just a great place. It's small, but very clean. The people are very caring, loving, and compassionate; couldn't be nicer. Her room has a bed and a chair. They have two activity coordinators. They showed movies to the residents, and they have arts and crafts. Sunday was my mother's 101st birthday, and we had a party for her. I'm very lucky I found them, and they take excellent care of her. It's better for her there than here at home."

"Mom moved into Sterling Home last September. The place is nice and the rooms are decent. The only thing I have is that if you want a room with a bathroom, you have to pay more. If not, you have to use the community bathroom. I like the staff. They do care about the residents, and I've never seen them mistreat anyone. I know that my mother has never felt mistreated. As far as the services, they wash her clothes, make sure that she gets her meds, and they provide her with meals. I'm pretty much satisfied with the services that she receives. There are no activities going on there. They are indicating that most of the residents don't want to participate. The dining area is clean, but I think the selection could be better."

"My aunt is at Sycamore Estate Inc. I was very impressed with it. It was very bright, very clean, comfortable, and very welcoming to my aunt, which was very reassuring for us. They helped her settle in very well. They provided all of the services that we were looking for at a very good price, and she is happy there. She says that the food is quite good. She has a shared room, and it was very neat and comfortable. It looked very nice to me, but they were doing renovations to put in a lot of improvements, which I thought was really impressive. It's a very well-kept and well-run facility. The staff is very professional, very knowledgeable, very friendly, accessible, and responsive. She is such a picky eater, and she has not offered any complaints."

"I chose Latrobe for my mother-in-law because it's close to where we live and they offer dementia care. The facility itself is clean. Some of the furniture are a bit worn out but not dirty. To me though the most important thing is their care for my mother-in-law. The staff all seem very nice and eager to make her feel at home. They also have been treating her very well and are concerned about what she likes to do. They have lots of activities for her there. I've also eaten there and I thought the food is very good. "

"Loyalhanna Senior Suites & Personal Care is a very nice place. Mom is in personal care. Her room's huge and has a very big bathroom. When you go down the halls, you're almost like at a hotel. Their dining area is really big and friendly, and they have a sitting area where it looks like you could pull up and have a cocktail if you wanted. They have a movie theater on their fourth floor and a library. They have four floors and they have different things on each floor. Just like any place, they're understaffed, but the girls that are there are very nice. It's clean and very nice. It doesn't smell. Their rooms are big. She has a bed, a recliner, kitchenette, little fridge, cabinets, a sink, TV, big closet, and a big bathroom. The layout is pretty nice and spacious. She likes it. There are days the food's not great. The dining area is real big and open. There's a fireplace in there. They always have it decorated and what I really like about it is they have a staff that comes around, almost like you're at a restaurant and they'll tell you what they're having for the day. If you don't care for that, they have other options that you can pick. There's something going on every day. They have bingo and crafts. I think they had some kind of little golf thing going on the other day. They have ice cream socials and milkshake socials. They have happy hours. I'm trying to get my father in over there too and the pricing they gave me was a little bit cheaper than what they wanted for two people up at the other place and there's so much more offered here at Loyalhanna."

"My mother-in-law had some respite stay in Country Cottage. The facility was clean, nice and well-kept. It is quite and has a laid-back atmosphere. The care was good and they were very nice. The owner was very nice and very accommodating, though there doesn't seem like a lot of staff, but I think they seemed okay. However, whenever we needed them, they usually don't have a bed available and there wasn't much activities for her. We have decided to place her in a nursing home. "

"My mother used to be in Mountain View. In the two weeks that she was there, I had a very good impression of the staff, the facility, and pretty much everything. I had no negative impressions there at all. I've seen a couple of places in the area, and this place appeared better than some of them. This one resonated better with me than some of the other ones, they are more proactive and concise. The facility looked nice and clean, people were cheerful, and the staff was extremely helpful. I haven't eaten there, but I saw one set of meals delivered though my mom was unable to eat them at the time."

"We are waiting to move into Newhaven Court at Lindwood. It was very good. They welcomed us, showed us around, and explained everything. We saw people that were sitting and playing trivia. They were happy, and they were laughing. We went to visit a lady in her room. She was very accommodating. She told us how much she liked it there and all that. They have activities every day in their game room, like bingo and that type of thing. They have trips every other day or so to different areas. When we were there, the following day they were going to Flight 93 memorial in Somerset. The dining area looked very nice; it was empty when we were there. The apartment has a bedroom, a living room, and a kitchen. The rooms were small, but they satisfied us."

"My father-in-law has been in Saint Anne Home for two weeks now. It's been good so far. I like that it's Catholic and that they will eventually accept Medicaid. His room is nice and clean. The staff members are nice. They are still not eating together. There are separate tables due to COVID. He likes the food though. There's a courtyard, too."

"My mother was at Weatherwood Manor, and it was very good. They were very caring and took good care of her. It was clean, and they were very attentive. They had games, rosary, and sing-along; I would say it was a pretty active community. "

"My mother was at Redstone Highlands. It was a wonderful place with nice rooms. The people were very kind and helpful. They had activities, like bingo, choirs that came in and sang, and had an orchestra playing one night. "

"Ligonier is a very nice facility with large staff. The food is good, and they’re taking very good care of my mother. She’s got a single room and it's large enough for her living room furniture and tables. The building is very well-maintained and cleaned. "

"My Mother was here for the last few years of her life. She was treated with dignity and love during her stay. I have since recommended this facility to other friends who were in search of an assisted living facility for their Mom's and I've received nothing but good reports from these friends also. My Mother passed here at Hempfield Manor but she was definately not alone. Not only was I there to hold her as she slipped away, but the nurse and her favorite Aid were there at her side softly singing, "Amazing Grace". I hope that when it's time for me to be less of a bursen on my children, that they will consider Hempfield Manor or a facility like them. "

"I went to Life's Promise. I met the owners, both of them, and they were wonderful. I saw part of it, and it was very clean. I talked to some of the residents that were outside, and I very much enjoyed it there, but it was a little bit more than we could afford. The residents said the food is better than average."
