Assisted Living Communities in Moon Township, PA

"I looked at the memory care facility of Halcyon at Bridgeville for my husband. I really liked it because the cost was within reason. It also seemed to have all the other amenities that the other memory care facility has. It's close to home too. They have a nice, single room or double room. They have areas where the residents can congregate, and they have a smaller dining area. They have activities that are available. They even had an outside space, which was nice. It's pretty much OK and hits all the boxes for us. The cleanliness looks fine and the person who gave the tour was very knowledgeable and provided everything I needed as far as the answers."

"Everytime I visit the place is getting nicer and more up to date. The staff are friendly and make him happy living there."

"I toured Celebration Villa of Lakemont Farms and it was very good. I might have picked it, but I picked the other place only because it was close to my son. I met with one lady who was very good and informative. The facility looked very clean and it was beautiful also. The rooms were nice and roomy. The grounds were very nice, it looked like a safe place. And for the memory care, there was a secure outside area."

"My mother is currently in this Brookdale community. We like it because some of the people there are a little more active. There are more men there, and as a result, it is a more natural environment. It is also close to our family home, so she knows other people there already. "

"The rooms that they showed us at Graceful Care Living just had a bed in them, and that's it. We knew immediately when we got there that that wasn't what we were looking for. The staff mentioned that they have another section for people who are more independent. However, it was still somewhat the same concept. Instead of being in a room, like a small, single room, there were two beds. There was no television in those independent rooms. You have to go out of the room to watch television. It was that type of atmosphere, and my mother doesn't want that. She wants something that's like a small apartment, where she can live in that small space and be able to care for herself. I liked the atmosphere. I liked the staff. They're very nice and very accommodating as we went through the tour. My mom asked questions, although she didn't ask very many because she knew, and I could tell just from how she was withdrawn that she was like, "No, this is not going to work for me." I said it to the guy. I said, she's a lot more independent. She can get around fairly well, but this is not for her. She still needs to be in her own place where she can take care of herself. The only thing that she needed was somebody to help her, like to come in and help her to make sure that she's taking her meds. I didn't smell anything. It was very clean."

"My grandmother lived at the Grand Residence for over 10 years. She loved her life there, we enjoyed the community as family members and we were so grateful for her years of care there. At first she was reluctant to give up her freedoms of independent living. All those worries were quickly dismissed as she settled into her new life at the Grand. She made new friends, loved helping others who needed assistance, meeting other guests’ families, befriended staff who assisted her daily, going on the shopping trips and other adventures, having daily meal specials to look forward to, her weekly hair appointments in the salon and so much more. She enjoyed hosting family and friends visiting in the dining room without any prep or clean up on her part. It was like she enjoyed showing off her new home & community to her visitors. It was a lovely community to visit and bring my kids (her great grandchildren). She enjoyed showing off the grandkids and they enjoyed meeting the other guests who lived there. On warm days we’d enjoy sitting on the back patio where we could lunch, the kids could enjoy the fountain and see what was growing in the garden. Sometimes we’d stroll down to see the creek and my grandma enjoyed watching the kids explore. The monthly family nights were a nice anchor for our visits. The entertainment was varying and fun and the monthly themed desserts were amazing! Other special events through the year were such a joy for my grandmother such as the Firemen’s Ball or Trick or Treat with the community coming in. We were grateful for the kindness & respect my grandmother was given by the staff. There was a lot of comfort in knowing she was safe and well cared for. The environment was always clean and well cared for. It’s a gorgeous building decorated beautifully which we appreciated compared to more institutional settings we visited. Such care and thought from the fresh flowers on each dining table to the seasonal decor. It was the perfect fit for my grandmother to spend her last decade of life living in such a thoughtful community. She so enjoyed her life there and we enjoyed becoming part of the community there. The Grand Residence gave her the quality of life she was accustomed to and the support she needed as her needs grew greater. We were grateful to have the peace of mind knowing we could trust in her care. "

"The atmosphere inside Franciscan Manor was lovely and elegant. It's a former mansion that was converted into a personal care home, assisted living facility. It's very nice inside. There are two different floors, and it was very well appointed. The staff was friendly and welcoming. It was in our top three, but they do not have a memory unit. They have people there who have memory issues but are still able to stay there, so it is a possibility. The grounds are lovely. It's just a really warm, welcoming, homey feeling place. It was clean and well-maintained."

"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."

"Paramount Senior Living-Bethel is a very nice place. They have a lot of activities which is what my sister likes about it. Every day they have something for them to participate in. The staff seems to be very nice. My sister is very happy there, but she complains about the meals. I have eaten there and I found it was pretty good institutional food. The facility, like any other places, is expensive and that in time would be a problem if she runs out of money. "

"I have nothing but positive things to say about Harmony. The place is very nice. The staff is very attentive. I had my father in law in here the past two years and all I can say is they gave him a life full of not only caring staff but also caring residents towards each other. I got to see a side of him I had never seen before. He joined in on quite a few of the activities and sang along at happy hour with the music. I could go on and on but all I can say is that my father in law recently passed and I couldn't have asked for a better place for him. I recommend them to people all the time. BTW, we still go back and visit."

"I like the layout of The Residence at Whitehall. Since I'm one of the new members to come in there, I got my apartment at the back of the building, which is good because you don't get the traffic noise on Route 51. It's also pet-friendly. I'm moving in on May 30. Shelly has been very helpful in telling me what I need to do ahead of time, so I'd give her a 5. I had a couple of lunches there and enjoyed them."

"I’m here at Paramount Senior Living at South Hills. I have a large one-bedroom with a lot of furniture from home. It may not have the menus that other places have but here you have room. They have a gazebo, nice grounds, a lot of bingo, and poker some nights. They have a little garden club, and the other day, we went to the meadow. They go to Walmart once in a while. There’s a doctor across the street but the doctor I go to weekly is in Coraopolis and the daughter of one of the aides here drives me to Coraopolis and back. They serve three meals."

"It was a wonderful place and the staff were caring. We chose it because it was near my mother-in-law's house and she was familiar with the area. However, she was not that ready yet, so she went home again. "

"I enjoyed meeting with the marketing director of Paramount Senior Living at Peters Township. He spent two and a half hours with us, went over everything, and toured us in the facility. I was somewhat familiar with the facility already from a few years ago and I was very pleased. They have the standard amenities that they do for an assisted living, like medications, incontinence monitoring, and helping with dressing. They did not offer any food at this time because of the restrictions, I guess because of Covid. Normally, they would offer for you to come to lunch or dinner, but at this time, they are not letting family members join in the meals."
