While they were quick to address our concerns in our care plan meeting, it seemed there were new ones every day. I feel sorry for any patients who don't have someone advocating for them because the staff here is overworked and underpaid. The nurse was responsible for 47 patients throughout her shift. The overnight staff appear to be the worst as far as care goes. If we were legally allowed to put in a video camera, we would have. The place looks and feels dirty. I'm not going into specific details about what we encountered, but if you place a loved one there, be sure to visit as often as you can to keep an eye on them. Even though we hated the place, there were a few great employees. One was an aid named Barbara. The physical and occupational therapists were kind, patient, and caring. The daytime nurses were mostly very good in spite of having too many patients to care for. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Be warned - Bellingham is building out, adding new residents daily. Unfortunately services -…read morespecifically dining services - are not responding to this increase in population. Running out of menu selections (including frozen premade desserts, yes something as simple as ordering & then thawing for service), wait times of 30+ minutes ( single person waiting for seating), food still being served well out of safe temperatures ("hot" foods served at 100 - 110*, "cold" food s served at room temperature. Bottom line is that Bellingham's efforts are solely directed towards increasing resident population with little thought on quantity of life/services for existing residents. I could not recommend this facility friends & family.

She was patient, kind, and truly took the time to understand our financial situation and unique needs. Donna went above and beyond to ensure the process was smooth and stress-free, which meant the world to us during such an important transition. Her professionalism and compassion made a challenging time so much easier. She listened to our concerns, answered all our questions, and never made us feel rushed or pressured. Thanks to Donna, my parents are now in a wonderful place that feels like home, and we couldn't be more grateful for her support and dedication. She truly made a difference for our family!

Please refrain from working for this community. It is not a community at all. You will be falsely…read moreaccused, singled out, isolated, and targeted for simply standing up for yourself. They do NOT follow the Quaker values that are displayed throughout the community. The staff is very clicky, and they will bully you if you do not engage in their antics. Leadership, especially Nathaniel Stube and Carrie Ritrovato, is afraid to advocate for their staff, and will take you to HR whenever they don't have the courage to address hostile workplace violence. HR is extremely biased and will not protect you in any way shape or form. HR fuels the gossip and rumors, including the CEO. Staff can find out who is next to get fired just by staff by HR to gossip. Also be mindful of giving this company your personal information such as, your DOB and SS number if you do not want your medical information going around the facility. Barclay Friends is a sad place to work. Pay is also not worth the mental toll. They cannot keep good staff members who actually want to work because they are threatened by the staff who lounge around, sleep, gossip, and play on their cell phones throughout the entirety of the shift. Lazy staff members are not held accountable. There is absolutely no teamwork. Everyone is out for themselves. Please please remove your family from this community.

They have lost 4 executive directors in the past 2 years and the last one, gone since December, has not been replaced. They are on their 3rd physician group in the past year. They have lost receptionists, finance and marketing staff and activities staff. Highgate has not been monitoring response times to the call buttons. Our sister has to go to the nurses office to request assistance for a shower, and several times has either not been showered or showered alone, which she is not safe to do. The monthly activities sheet looks great, but in fact a lot of the activities listed are not done! The residents have been complaining for years about the poor Direct TV reception (analog), but despite the fact that the facility has WiFi the leadership has not pursued switching to a streaming company. Our sister is being overbilled and we have been unable to get this corrected despite multiple phone calls and emails. The physical plant is in sad shape: the dining room was closed multiple times this past year for repairs, the first floor activity room was closed for over 6 months due to leaks in the ceiling and substandard repairs, and the apartments lost heat for a few days this winter. We are actively looking for an alternative facility, which is sad since our sister has made friends here. Genesis leadership- you should be ashamed of your lack of attention to this once lovely place!!!

The lack of compassion and human decency was shocking. All bills were paid and up to date.

Pretty disturbing violations on Arbor Terrace of Exton, along with above observation founded by the state, I would encourage others to review and factor the number of violations against Arbor Terrace Exton from the Department of Human Services (DHS) that range from abuse, neglect, and mishandling of medications. Personal care homes are inspected and their performance is made public so that you can make an educated decision when helping your loved ones. Check out the repeat violations and ongoing lack of adherence to state requirements. In fact Arbor Terrace of Exton was unable to renew their license earlier this year. Check out employee reviews on indeed- very telling as well.
