Assisted Living Communities in Reading, PA

"Rooms are nice, staff is helpful, many activities to participate in if the resident wishes. I like the smaller community."

" My parents moved into Keystone Villa almost three years ago. The facility is beautiful and the apartments are very nice Our family has found the staff to be friendly, professional, and very caring. There are a variety of activities that appeal to many of the residents. There are card games, puzzles, crafts and entertainment to name a few. I would recommend Keystone Villa to anyone interested in independent or assisted living. "

"I used Amity Place for my mother as a respite first, and then she moved in permanently. She was only there for three weeks, though. The place was clean. I was very pleased with the care and treatment of the staff and the nursing staff. The only downfall I would have would be communication with their administration. The room was very nice. It was spacious for one individual, and that's all she needed. All her needs were met. It was more like a studio. She participated minimally in their activities just because she was fairly new and so scared. However, for amenities, they had a courtyard with flowers and a garden where the residents can participate. They had an individual from a local high school or local college who came in and played piano in a common area for them. They had two other common areas. One was a TV/library area, and the other was just an open area. I had no issues with the nursing staff or the other staff. They were great. The meals were pretty good. I was very pleased with the food that they got there. They accommodated a lot. The facility was very clean. She was in a wheelchair, so it was very easy to get around mobility-wise in a wheelchair."

"Manatawny Manor was a good, clean place, and the people seemed to be respectful and nice. The food and the staff were good. In the independent living, you can have a shared room or an independent room. It had everything you need, and it was well maintained. It was located close to a hospital and to the malls."

"Eagleview Landing was new. They had all the amenities that you would ever expect and it looked immaculate. However, they're not amenable to higher levels of personal care. They led us to believe they would accept my mom, and when they did the assessment, we got another story, but it was the most impressive facility we saw."

"Penn Assisted Care was nice, the people there were very nice, and it was very clean. It was small, a little cramped, but it seemed like a family. It's very homey. They have a porch, they hang out there, and they go to the movies. "

"It is also very nice and it is more like a home. The staff is very caring. The lady that I meet, she has a nice room with a big closet. They have a lot of activities. My friend is there and she always says that the food is good. They have a nice facility where you and your family can meet and have dinner together. That is where I think I want to go and I will recommend them to others. "

"Juniper Village at Lebanon had steps (they had a chair lift, though). The staff was very friendly and helpful. What was interesting was that once a month, they would have a very special meal that you had to pay for. When I was there, they had a French cuisine coming up, and that is something different than the regular food. That was interesting. I was in an apartment that was already being used, and the lady was away, but she agreed to let them show it to me. I saw a lot of stuffed giraffes and pictures of giraffes. So I asked about it because it seemed different, and they said that a giraffe is known for having a big heart. It was like a mascot. That's a silly little thing, maybe, but it made me feel like they have big hearts in helping people."

"Cornerstone Living is clean. The rooms are very nice and very individualized. The staff is very friendly, very professional, and very helpful."

"St. Martha Villa was very nice. They have independent and assisted. My aunt was in there and liked the food. I knew she got very good care. One of the girls that I had for therapy when I was in another facility works there, and they have a good therapy team. The rooms were very nice. The assisted living had more studio apartments. It's immaculate and very clean. I liked the convenience of where it is and the help was very nice. I didn't run in to anybody that was nasty or anything like that."

"Atrium of Allentown was a new facility. It's only a little more than a year old so it's a beautiful place. They had outside areas and the rooms were very nice and good sized. The staff spent more time talking with me about what was provided and what's covered in their fees. People were sitting out in the common rooms or in the dining area. It was a nice place."

"Anyone who has ever had to move a loved one out of their current residence into an assisted living facility knows first hand how painful that can be. The staff at Heather Glenn made that move as painless and smooth as they possibly could. Entire staff was very caring and accommodating. Property is very nice and clean. I highly recommend this place for any senior looking for assisted living."

"The people at Linden Village are very nice, and accommodating. My mother likes it here. They have bingo, puzzles, and entertainment. They had a spa-day, and they do their nails. They had something for their cognitive skills every day. "
