The Best Memory Care Communities in Burlington County, NJ

"I toured the Deer Meadows Retirement Community. It was accommodating. It was comfortable, and the people there seemed very happy to be there. It was pretty clean. It was decent, like I walked into the dining room, I was impressed. I have multiple sclerosis, so I used a rollator. They were very accommodating with letting me in and helping to find someone to help push me around. The dining room was beautiful. It's nice. I love the dining room. I saw the mailbox and activity room. They had a little foyer when you came in, and there's a lot of presents sitting there."

"It was fabulous. We were going there, but Dad didn't qualify. They're wonderful. They were attentive. They were terrific. The rooms were light, airy, modern, and comfortable. The dining area was beautiful, but we did not experience the food. They have everything. The only thing they didn't have was a pool."

"I live in Florida and had the privilege of visiting my Godson at Arden Courts of Yardley. I cannot find the words to describe what I feel about the place and the people who work there. They are all angels! I was there for hours everyday during my weeklong visit and saw countless acts of kindness. Thank you for all you do."

"Arden Courts was recommended to us, because they are able to handle my mom's care. So far, they're doing a good job with her. I like that they have two very nice courtyards that they can walk out in all the time. There's also a trail around the building. It's all fenced in and my mom really likes to be outside, so she's out there all the time, and I think that's very good for her. It calms her. Anyone that I met there was incredibly happy to be there. I looked at how long they've all been there and most of them have been there starting at 26 years, down to the shortest one at five years, but most of them have been there ten years or more, which shows a lot about the place. They do a lot of activities with them. They have actual cooking classes and gardening-type classes once a week. Then every day they have your typical bingo, arts and crafts, and that kind of stuff. My mom's always in the activities. They take them out on trips to different places that aren't too far away as well. The bedrooms are kind of small, but they don't want the residents to be hanging out in their bedroom. They want them to be interacting with others. So, it's laid out for certain purposes. The facilities are all nice and neat."

"My mom has been a resident for three years now, and I couldn’t be happier! First, the rooms are beautiful, clean, and very spacious. Maintenance does a wonderful job daily, of coming in and keeping the rooms clean, and waste bins emptied. The residents have access to a Beautiful lounge, movie theater, exercise area, TV area, art area, etc. Each room is beautifully decorated, and clean. Now I would like to talk about the staff. There’s always someone at the front desk as you walk in, who is always there to help you with any needs or questions you have. The aids are very dedicated to their job, and work very hard. I have seen them with patience, kindness, and caring, on a daily basis. ( and I am there frequently). The nurses go above and beyond, and are always quick to answer any question, or any need you have. Everyone there is very compassionate, caring, and professional! I would highly recommend this place to anyone, who is looking to put their parent, or a loved one in a place, to get the care, of being in their own home. I can’t say enough, to express the gratitude, and appreciation, I have for the staff, for treating my mother with dignity and respect, in her senior years"

"We just toured the Sunrise of Lower Makefield's assisted living. The place is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. The food was awesome, too. They were kind enough to give my parents lunch to try out. The person who assisted us answered all our questions and did not rush. She spoke to my parents and not just to me. She explained everything and showed us everything, and she took her time. The people serving lunch, after they had taken the orders, would keep coming to ask if they could get you anything and if the food was okay. It was so nice. It's very close to my house so I feel more comfortable, and the place is so friendly. The patients were kind and friendly to my parents, and they didn't even know they were coming. They're all laughing and joking with them. My parents and I tried the food. The food is not prepared and shipped there because they have cooks who cook the food there daily. There are four different cooks, and they cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I had chicken noodle soup and it's homemade, not out of the can. I also had a sandwich and a cup of tea. They even asked if I wanted dessert. They have plenty of juices, coffee, and tea. They even have beer and wine. My father asked if it was just for holidays and the lady there said no. She said that if you wanted to have a glass of wine after your meal, you could have it, and my father did. The apartment is beautiful when you walk in. There were two different types of rooms that we saw. They have three room types, but we only saw the two. It's an L-shaped room and when you walk to your left, there's a huge area where you can have a TV, maybe two recliners, and a table. To the right is a closet and a kitchenette with cabinets and a refrigerator. There's a huge bathroom where you can wheel in and it has all the handrails, benches in the shower, and a heat lamp in the ceiling so they won't be cold. The room has a great big bay window that overlooks a farm area on one side and the main street on the other. It's very pretty, and the landscape is beautiful. I can't wait to see it in the springtime. If one room has two people, they would offer two beds, two dressers, two nightstands, and a table and lamp. It's a very spacious and beautiful room. Even the hallways have artwork all over and how they have decorated it is fabulous. It's a very happy place where everybody's greeting everybody. Even the patients greet the staff. We saw this one lady walking fast with her walker to go to the activity. She was telling the other patients to come so they could get a good seat. They have a bus that takes them out for outings. They can take them to the store or to whatever restaurant in the area. It's a shuttle bus that has a lift so if you're in a wheelchair, you can still go. They said it's there twice a week. They also have a salon for them to get their hair and nails done."

"I feel that my wife , having been at Rittenhouse Village for nearly two years now , is being well cared for. Improvements in care , diet , and overall environment give me peace of mind when I am not there with her. I visit most days and , thankfully , have not had any unpleasant surprises. Special thanks to the management , nursing staff , kitchen staff , and all those others who have been diligent and thoughtful in their daily tasks. Keep up the good work ! God will reward you. Sincerely, Frank Johnson "

"I'm moving into Crescent Fields at Huntingdon Valley. I love it, and it's the most reasonable one out of all of them. You only pay $3,000 to put a down payment, and then you pay $6,000 a month for a two-bedroom. They only had two-bedrooms left, and I got one. It's a nice size, and it's beautiful. Everything is really nice, so I'm very happy. Everything is included. They have three meals a day, they have entertainment, they have a movie theater, they have a private dining room, and they do trips. I had lunch there. I can't say it was the best, but it's OK. Nevertheless, they were very courteous and very caring to all their people. I don't really know any of the staff members other than the salespeople and the girls at the front desk, but the kitchen people were very, very sweet. They're very pleasant, very cheerful, very nice, and willing to help you. Everything was immaculate, too."

"I had a pretty good tour at Holland Village. It had a nice atmosphere; it was not sterile. The people were very friendly. It was very clean and nice. I liked it. The staff that I met was good. They had various clubs. They had a gym and a swimming pool."

"I am a resident of The Philadelphia Protestant Home. They have everything you need. The food is good. It's near where I live. The nurses are well-trained. It's just top-notch. It's very clean, and bright, well-lighted, and the elevators worked."

"The Province of Southampton was a very nice facility. It was immaculate. The only thing I did not like about it was that they have what they call a Jack and Jill apartment. In other words, there's a separate bedroom on each side, but they share a common bathroom. It was well-staffed. The Province of Southampton has memory care and assisted living, but I would rather have just memory care because my thoughts are, say, the memory care might be short of staff. They take people from assisted living and put them in memory care, and they're not trained. So that's another reason I'd rather have memory care. The person who took me around was very nice and well-informed. She was very good. They serve three meals a day. They have courtyards and walking lanes where they can walk outside."

"Harmony Village CareOne at Cherry Hill was nice. I liked it, but I couldn't afford it. It is set up pretty well, especially for people with memory care. They have places where residents can walk wherever and stuff. I went there with my kids. It was very clean. The model room was nice sized and designed for older people who need memory care. The staff was good, and the workers looked happy. They answered all my questions and kept in touch with me."

"The Birches is the best thing that's ever happened to my 92 year old father. He is very well taken care of and his mobility has improved significantly. He's feels like this is his home and it's taken all the stress away from my brother and I. I would always recommend The Birches."
