Assisted Living Communities in Lebanon, PA

"I'm in Keystone Villa at Ephrata. The people that serve me food are very nice. The food is A1. I have a good working relationship with the person that cleans my apartment. I have lots of friends here that I enjoy. Before I came here, I was in a very bad situation. My wife passed away and I was alone. Since I've been here, I got out of my phone and came back to my old self. So, I owe Keystone a lot. They have a pool table and a shuffleboard table. I go upstairs and shoot pool with some people. They have a cinema. On Fridays, you can drink two beers and relax and enjoy their company. It's just an all-around great place. I get out and I drive around in my Corvette. I have fun with that. This place got me started. I have a one-bedroom apartment with a nice little kitchen, a nice living room, a very big bathroom, and a nice shower. They allow me to keep my cat and dog. My cat and dog are in the apartment with me. The overall staff is great. I haven't met a person I didn't like. The residents are great. We tease each other and have fun. I'm spoiled rotten. What I had for dessert today was cherry pie with vanilla ice cream. They don't just ship the food in, they cook it right here and that's a big difference. I had Salisbury steak today and mashed potatoes and beans and then they have a salad bar. You just can't beat this place. The inside is beautiful. I don't know too much about the activities because I'm hardly here, but the ones I do go to are really nice. It's a good value."

"I toured Juniper Village at Mount Joy. It's a feeling when you go in, everything looks clean and neat and very accommodating. The only negative would have been the cost, the location, and the room arrangement. It was with a couple and we're looking for a suite and they couldn't do that. I was looking for two living spaces and they could only offer a suite in assisted living. The staff was great."

"My Great-Uncle has been living at Oak Leaf Manor (Landisville) for about a year. I have visited him at least twice a week since he has been there, so I am very familiar with Oak Leaf. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and well maintained. There is plenty of outside seating including two gazebo's. There is also an outside picnic area and nice walkways for the residents. The interior is wonderfully decorated for whatever season it happens to be. There is also a water fountain inside that is quite nice so sit around and relax. The dining room is nicely laid out and the food is good. The residents rooms are spacious and clean. The staff at Oak Leaf Manor is very friendly and caring. If any problems arise, the staff do their best to accommodate you as quickly as possible. There are a lot of activities for the residents, including BINGO, a theater room, scenic bus rides, crafts, and veterans activities. Overall Oak Leaf Manor has a very comfortable friendly atmosphere. If you are looking for a home for a loved one who can no longer live alone, I highly recommend Oak Leaf Manor. "

"Rooms vary in size. The room my mom resides in is small , however meets her needs. I have visited mom during various meal times and the food is well prepared. Menus change daily and offers variety. The staff is very attentive and engaging with the residents."

"I toured Oak Hill Village. It was very nice. They didn't have a one-bedroom or a studio apartment. My sister would only have been able to get a one-bedroom place, but it was more money than what she could afford. The staff who gave the tour was very nice though. They're very good people."

"My wife is a resident of Paramount Senior Living at Lancaster County Paramount. The people that take care of her really like all the patients that they have. They are very friendly. The place is a really nice place, but it's too far away from us. It's the same food that they give you in the hospital. The food is okay. The facility is very clean. They have guess-that-tune and another one is religious activities. They take them out for tours around the area. They had quite a few activities. The room is pretty good size and the layout is okay, too. The atmosphere is okay."

"My visit to the Legend of Lancaster was just really cool. When I walked in there, it almost felt like home. Everybody was so friendly. The sales director was amazing. There was a sign that had my name on it to welcome me. It was a wonderful experience. I was given a folder and talked through all of the different things that are offered and the price points. Everything was explained very well and clearly. They had a beauty shop and a little spa room, which had a tub in it. If someone wanted to do a bath-type situation, they could have assistance with that. The activity area was nice. It was very cool to see all the different offerings of activities. They provide transportation to get residents to and from certain places. The staff was very friendly. They knew all the residents and were talking to them by name. It was just a very loving and caring environment."

"On July 20, 2023 my dad had a fall. After being hospitalized and inpatient rehab, we felt he needed 30 days in assisted living. This was devastating to us both as my dad is very independent. Melissa jumped in and made the process of having dad placed at Viva so comforting. Anytime, I need anything Melissa and Millie are always there fore me along with the other staff. I cannot say enough about Viva and their staff, they make you feel like family. "

"My mother is in Evergreen Estates Retirement Community. Everything I needed, they were OK to do, especially the price. She's under the care of assisted living. The staff is very good. They do everything for her. They do stuff that keeps the residents busy. They offer everything that she needs, and they take care of them. In their regular suites they have everything, but in their suites for the mentally disabled they don't have any amenities. It's very clean. It's near restaurants and maybe ten blocks from the hospital."

"We went to see Columbia Cottage. It was very nice. The building was well maintained. The staff members that we interacted with were very nice. They seemed to have taken interest in the residents there. We went into the rooms. The admission people were very nice in explaining everything there. Overall, it was a really good experience. The food smelled good. We saw residents there, and they all seemed very satisfied. It was a good experience."

"I had the opportunity to spend the first Passover Seder Dinner here with my mom. Everyone went out of their way to make this a beautiful experience for us. Everything was perfect from table decor to service and food. Thank you "

"The staff were extremely great to be around. Since it’s a small community everyone got to know each other and it was very fun to see my grandma get to be cheerful and lively during her last few months there. It was everything we needed for her. I knew she was in great hands seeing the staff welcome her with open arms. For being a small community, it sure is a wonderful place to be at."

"I toured Brookdale Harrisburg. The place was pretty nice and very clean. They have many people to take care of in their memory care area. The staff was very helpful. The building was in very good shape. It's a pretty good size room. The room doesn't have a private bathroom. It is shared with another room."

Residents are pleased with the attentiveness and kindness shown by the staff, and appreciate having balconies with a view of the grounds from their living areas.
