Nursing Home Communities in Sayre, PA

"We’ve been to Bradford County Manor several times because that’s where my uncle stayed. It’s a 30-minute drive from Waverly. Everything was right on par. It was brightly lit, furnished, and up to date. The staff was courteous and kind. The rooms were very nice. Somebody goes in twice a day to pick up, and look around, not leaving anything on the floor where they could trip. It seemed very well maintained. "

"The atmosphere is friendly and inviting. Everyone is always helpful. They keep the building in good condition and clean. You expect to smell something terrible when you think of a nursing facility, but when you walk in you don't get that. They offer a lot of activities for the residents and that keeps them also happy and makes it easier to visit when they have something new to tell about what they have been up to. The cafeteria is a great place to visit, they have lots of choices and good food as well. There is a lot of different places to take the residents when you are there to visit. There is a dining room, a day room and a elevator sitting area on every unit, as well as a downstairs lobby, activity room, and 2 different outdoor locations to sit, relax, and enjoy talking to everyone. The building is accessible and very easy to find. The only complaint would be the parking lot is kind of small and there is a bit of a walk to get to the main entrance door. In all I believe most everyone is happy to work there and they show it. It makes it easier to want to go back each time and know you will always feel welcome and be comfortable. "

"My aunt was put here after her stroke. When I went to visit her she was slumped over in a wheelchair with no help in sight. She also had several articles of clothes stolen. Needless to say she was put in another facility. The head of the department never returned any of the phone calls our family made. We also called and tried to talk to the head nun at the time but again, no returned calls."

"I had a great time here. The staff is super nice and helpful. I am happy I cam here after my surgery. It is gorgeous to. "

"I went to Elcor Nursing & Rehabilitation Center to visit a friend a year ago. The facility was really good. They had really nice people there. They pretty much pay attention to detail. As soon as that person called on the call button, they came right in. My friend had a shared room and basically they had a curtain between them. They also have private rooms for $30 more. They have a physical therapy area where they have almost like exercise machines. They had quite a bit of staff in there. They had a dining room which they encouraged you to go down there, and since he was taking physical therapy for his leg, they asked him to take his walker and stuff like that to work out on his leg. They also have a barber come in twice a month for you to get a haircut."

"I took my mom over to The Courtyards at Bethany Village to visit one of her friends over there two years ago and everything was top-notch. From what I understood on the visit, it kind of cost like it, too. So, if you're on a budget, don't go there, but physically, you got what you paid for. It was really nice. They had a lot of activities for the residents there. They had a little craft fair that they would put up outside. They even had where they could bring their grandkids there and they would set up slides and little kiddy rides for them. The staff was nice and friendly. They had Christmas parties up in their main dining room. It was spotless."

"My husband moved into UHS Senior Living at Ideal. I like, and he likes, the people, the nurses, and the staff. They're very caring. They are attentive and will answer any questions that you have. They're just friendly, and they do very well with their patients. The food, he likes some of it. There are certain things he's not interested in, but he eats the food. It's very clean, and the structure of the building is very easy to access. They have ample parking for visitors. They're more than welcoming when you go into the facility. The floors are secure, so there's no need to worry about someone entering who shouldn't be there. My husband doesn't participate, and he's not into those things, but they have bingo and ladder ball, and they have something different every day. There are some single rooms, and there are some double-size rooms. My husband's currently in a double, and there's plenty of room for a chair, a bed, and a dresser, so there's ample room for whatever he has. I chose UHS Senior Living at Ideal because we're very close to it. It's only about a 10-minute drive from me. So, it was convenient."

"My brother in law is at Absolute care in Endicott NY. Before he moved their, he would sleep all day. Eat is meal in his room. his hair was long and had a long beard. Being at Absolute care faculty, he walks with his walker to the dinning. Socialies with other people. He is clean shaving and short hair. He walks to the tv room. He made a 360, since being a Absolute Care Thank you"

"I visited Vestal Park, which is a brand-new rehab community. The only reason we're not there is because they're full and there's no room. The place was warm and welcoming."

"Vestal Rehabilitation and Nursing Center was terrible. They called me every other day and told me I had to move my mom. They pressured me and that was uncomfortable. The social worker was horrible, she told me I had to stay with my mother everyday if I could not transfer her. They really put me through a traumatizing period of time. I also thought they were short-staffed and they did not handled things very well. I was so angry that they mistreated my mom. "

"The exterior of this facility is pleasant. The interior may be tidy, but it is reminiscent of an out-dated elementary school. The staff was young, and seemed more concerned with planning their night's activities and cell phones than the relative comfort of their residents. "

"Good Shepherd Village was a good fit for me and my husband. The staff was very pleasant and just was a good fit for us. The room was very pleasant. Stores are close by, and they take you to the doctors. They do the basics, usually what other places do. It's more out of the city. It's out in the country, but it's close to Wegmans grocery store, which they take you to, but you make an appointment. I saw all three levels. There's a nursing home. First, we're going into independent, and then if we need other levels, we can go forward. The facade of the facility was very good, and it was clean."

"Was a patient there twice this year for short term rehab. The staff was friendly, helpful and very professional. My room was clean and well maintained. I wouldn't hesitate to go there again. Staff was constantly asking if there was something that they could help me with. I was treated in a dignified manner and my privacy was respected. There was a library available as well as daily word puzzle sheets. A list of available activities was posted in my room. PT and OT staff provided daily therapy. There were alternative meals available if I didn't like what was offered on the main menu. The dietician visited me to ensure that my meal requirements would be meant."
