North Penn Manor was the best place that I've been to. I took my husband with me there and he made friends right away. It's a really friendly family environment. The apartment we saw was very nice, up-to-date, and clean. The place didn't smell and nobody seemed to be displeased. They made us a very nice dinner and the food was good. The staff was very friendly and excellent.

When we came to the heart breaking decision we could not at home provide the 24hr care that Mom needed and deserved, we found North Penn Manor. Hands on owner Judy along with her staff provided the personal loving care Mom needed and enjoyed. Proactive medical care help keep Mom in tip top shape. Judy and her staff made you feel that you where part of a family and we cannot thank them enough.

My mother spent the last 4 months at N Penn Manor until she passed. I was so impressed about the quality care and respect that my mom received there. The staff was always friendly and pleasant with her and readily available to assist her with her needs. The residents are also friendly.
The facility was clean. Her room was comfortable and nicely furnished. The bathroom was well maintained.
After being in 2 other ALFs prior, this one ranks way above them. I only wished I found North Penn MAnor sooner.

North Penn Manor was very clean. They schedule a lot of activities for the residents, and the age group is not that old -- around 60 to 70 years old. The people who take care of the residents are friendly, outgoing, very helpful. They are there practically 24 hours a day. Their meals are served three times a day, and you can ask for more if you want to. You also have a choice of what you want to eat. There’s no set time for breakfast, so you can just go there whenever you want, and they make sure you can have what you want when you want it. They have a 24/7 nurse, and the doctors visit the facility. The rooms are very large; each room has its own temperature-control unit. They are able to bring in their own TV, refrigerator, and they don’t charge you for electricity. They also have an option if you want to get the room with a roommate. They have a shuttle that can take you wherever you need to go.

My mom moved in at North Penn Manor just this April of this year. It is close in that she is accessible for visits. It is a privately-owned facility. The owner is actually on the premises, which is nice. I like the interaction between the owner and the staff and I have a good feeling about the way everybody is interacting with themselves and with each other. No one seems disgruntled and everybody seems to be happy. Price-wise, it is also doable. We got my mom in a single room with her own bathroom and shower and it is nice. She has dementia and it is hard to gauge to know how she feels, but I think she's happier there. It is just a comfortable place. The only thing I think they could improve on is having more activities for their residents.
