Assisted Living Reviews for Country Meadows Retirement Communities

September 30, 2016

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My parent has lived in Independent Living, Assisted Living and the Alzheimer's unit. All the rooms were quite large and fit much furniture. I can't even explain how great the staff is. They care so much about the residents and work very hard . They frequently have new protocols for how to better care for residents. When going to doctor visits we are often told things like "Oh, Country Meadows, they are excellent at wound care." ( or whatever care we are discussing that parent needs) Food is great, lots of activities and they encourage my parent to participate.

Thank you very much. We truly believe that our team is among the best in the industry and yes, we realize we are biased. Our co-worker surveys consistently reveal the same answer co-workers enjoy working for Country Meadows. That reason is simply "the residents." Because of their caring nature, we are proud of our co-workers who go above and beyond to provide residents with exceptional care and numerous opportunities to enjoy life.

At Country Meadows, their independent and assisted living were in the same section, so, if my mother moved from independent to assisted living, she would still be living in the same one-bedroom apartment. The apartments were very big and lovely, so we liked them even more, and my mother met other people there who had similar interests. She is Pennsylvania-Dutch and she met a woman, who spoke Pennsylvania-Dutch, so they spoke together. Then, I found out that they give Pennsylvania-Dutch lessons there, and my mother would love that. It’s definitely a possibility and closer to where she lives. We loved the staff and didn’t eat the food, but it smelled wonderful. They have ice cream and snacks all of the time, so you just go and help yourself. They also have a lot of activities and charity events. I think she would be happier there because it’s closer to her church and to the people that she knows.

Country Meadows of Allentown have a very good independent living program, but assisted living is very poor. My parents do not get the care they need. They do not have the proper amount of training or amount of staff. The apartments are very nice. The only complaint I get from my parents is that it is a little too fancy for that age group. I would not recommend their assisted living to anyone.

Provider Response

Thank you for your note. We are very proud of our team at Allentown and are concerned with your comments. Please share these points with our Executive Director so we can address the situation and make things right. Just FYI-every co-worker, whether full-time or part-time, is required to complete a large amount of training, and additional opportunities are available to them to help advance their careers. If you notice someone on our team who might need a bit more education, please share that with a member of our management team.

We have a lot of friends at Country Meadows of Allentown. The only thing I didn't like was the size of the room in their assisted living facility. They have small rooms, and the money you have to put down is very high. The facility is beautiful. They have all kinds of speakers, and they show movies. They have a 6" TV set in each one of the building lobbies.

Provider Response

Thank you for your comments. We are very proud of our beautiful community and have completed several major renovation projects in the last few years. As an all-rental retirement community, Country Meadows has a very low fee when residents move in compared to larger CCRC communities with a large buy-in cost. Please stop in for another visit when you are in the neighborhood.

My brother has the power of attorney to decide for my grandmother. He chose this facility over the others because he thinks she's better safer in there. The surroundings are beautifully kept and the inside is clean. The staff are very helpful and kind. My grandmother has Alzheimer's but she still converse with the residents there. I can't think of anything that this facility needs to improve, its already very good.

My mother was in independent living at Country Meadows - Allentown for four years and I would rate that very highly. She went from independent living to assisted living and the price jumped dramatically with all the extra care added. We also put her in their skilled nursing when she broke her ankle. It's a campus with four buildings. The two buildings are independent living, one is assisted living, and one is called Pathways, which is between assisted living and skilled nursing. When she was in the independent living, she had a one-bedroom apartment with a living room and a full kitchen. The staff was fantastic. The food was gourmet. Everything was wonderful there. As far as activities went, one person couldn't fit everything into a day. There was always something going on. You get what you pay for.

Country Meadows was the largest population place, so everything was big. It is all in one floor; it is spread out. It is a little more rural, so there's a lot more grass around it and what-not. It gives you a feel that you're in a town. There were people playing crafts, puzzles, scrabbles and they had a game room. There were also lots of people gathered in the dining room. The units were about the same square-footage as anywhere else. It was a bit pricey than others, but they offered two meals a day. The public areas were large, the dining area looked like a big grand dining room, and the foyers were bigger. I saw more people because of the population size.

Excellent community. Separate buildings designed for different levels of care. Sectioned rooms for dementia patients. All faculty nice and smiling, patient and encouraging to the residents to remain as independent as possible. Many activities offered along with outside of the facility events, such as a trip to a Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs game. The care providers are rarely off their feet, always moving to complete some task to assist the residents. Staff is knowledgeable in all affairs. Food is fair quality. Staff makes their best attempt to meet all the needs of the residents. For example, most residents receive their own room. However, one couple requested a single room and they were graciously granted the room together. Moreover, the staff also assist the residents for their end of life procedures, such as creating a book that relays the resident's life to his/her friends and family. All in all, a great place to work and live as made possible by the dedicated staff of Country Meadows.
