Celebration Villa of Lewisburg

Celebration Villa of Lewisburg is an amazing place ! My grandfather was a resident here and he loved his room, the staff and the food (that he always raved about) . The staff has a very caring and empathetic attitude and they are always there when you need them. The administration team that has recently taken over are all very competent in what they do , they are empathetic and actually listen ! The rooms are beautiful and the environment is more like being at "home" than being in a facility. I would trust Celebration of Lewisburg with my family member more than any facility in the area.

Celebration Villa of Lewisburg was a little confusing because it seemed like it was more for personal care. For instance, laundry was included as part of the rent and the cost, which is something that my sister could do on her own. The rooms weren't quite as equipped. There were no kitchen facilities or sinks or anything in any of the rooms. That was a thing that concerned us. There was a room that was a little bigger, but it didn't feel like an apartment, it just felt like a nursing home room for personal care, so it wasn't as independent. The rooms weren't as spacious and some of the rooms didn't have private bathrooms, which was also a concern. My sister would have to use a shared bathroom. It wasn't a deal breaker, but it certainly wasn't our first choice. Brant was very knowledgeable. I understand he has recently taken over as a director. He was very enthusiastic about his position, very informative, and very friendly. We were pleased with the tour and the information that he gave us. We didn't have any samples of the food, but it smelled good. We looked at the menu that was posted there. It looked very appetizing, so it's something that I'm sure would be very acceptable. For amenities, they have bingo days and library presentations.

I liked how quick Celebration Villa of Lewisburg responded to whatever we did to reach out. The lady called me, I called her back, and by 9:30 we had a tour. The best thing about them was just the service and their friendliness,. It smelled clean, and that it was a good, bright building. The person that toured us was very informative of everything and all the processes. She instructed us well, directed us, and answered our questions. She was very thorough. All the meals are homemade, they have activities rooms, therapy, a dining hall, and the individual rooms gave us the right to make it a home away from home for our mother, and decorate it accordingly. We can put whatever makes her feel comfortable. We go into this new empty room and the walls were perfect, because they redo them between every resident that they have.

My mom has moved into Celebration Villa of Lewisburg. They've been so good. They provide all levels of care. The staff has been very good. She says the food is good. Their activity department seems to be good. She hasn't been there long enough to do much, but they have bingo and puzzles. They're doing musical programs now for the holidays, and they had Santa Claus come to visit. My mom's room is a one-bedroom. It's fine, it's good, but it could be a little bigger. It's been cleaned. Their activity room is what they would use as a family room. It's a very big activity room. They have everything in there. The staff have all been very, very nice and helpful, and they seem to treat her very well.

I went to Celebration Villa of Lewisburg. It's a bright, homey atmosphere. As we toured around, it's kind of a typical room, it's a studio. You can get the studio apartment or you can get one slightly larger, all at an increased cost. The kitchen facilities look wonderful. The cook had been there for like eight years. Like everything else, they had trouble keeping people there, and they had a wall of photographs of people that were there one year, which surprised me. There are forty-five beds and seventy-three people, which is the size I would prefer. I have a son in Lewisburg, so I would have a connection there. The person that gave us the tour was very enthusiastic about the change in ownership. She felt that would provide more funds to do things they wanted to do there. Everything was positive that I saw there. That would be high on my list if I can't find something locally where I live. The dining area was very impressive, they served you at your table, and the menu they had on the wall was pretty enticing. The tables were fairly spread wide apart which would indicate to me that the facility was not at full capacity. We counted about thirty-five seats in the dining room and they prefer that you come to the dining room to eat, but they will serve you in your room under extenuating circumstances. It's a typical studio apartment with a bed and a bathroom and enough room for a dresser and an overstuffed chair, it's nothing all that big, but I don't need much room. It appeared to be well maintained. There was some kind of activity going on in one of the rooms that might have been bingo or something like that. But the people seem generally happy there. They had a salon and a fitness area.

It seemed nice. The lady who gave me the tour was informative and friendly. They had a pretty good program there. The rooms were large and decorated nicely. The dining area looked fine. They take the people to places they wanted to go, and they had games.
