My mother moved here 1.5 years ago and is already moving out. Rent was $5000/month when she…read morearrived. High price but worth the things she was promised talking with management. Since then the rent has increased by $700 and they are considering another increase. PA has no law against percent of rent increase so there is no recourse. Obviously she was able to afford it and still could swing it but the perks are not living up to expectation. The meals can be described as mildly edible. For the money one should be able to be served a meal that is not only good but that meets dietary requirements. This is not the case. I am not resentful nor am I out to give anyone a bad name. In this post-Covid world good help is hard to find. Like other establishments they are short- staffed. All around for the money it's just not worth it. To me it's almost like elder abuse. Not in the traditional sense but who, of those beyond a certain age, would want to move again? And there is no way to stop the increases or improve services. Just a litany of promises unkept. So if you are considering living here or having a parent etc. move in, please speak with people who already live there. Ask to sample a meal in the dining area. Do your homework so that you don't end up in a position of wanting out.

Once you put your loved one in here you are limited to two hours per day for visitation, so if you live far away you are screwed. I believe the main reason they limit visitations is because they don't want you to see what is really going on and they don't have the place properly staffed. The food is not as good as they let you believe. Do your homework before coming to this place.

The only time she got out of bed was for the 30 minutes PT came to her room. She was always laying in her bed even during meal time. She only left the room for PT or when my sister and I came to visit. We were very disappointed and asked to have her come home after 2 weeks of stay. I had high hopes she would be up and moving and out of the room more, using the bathroom in her room, and thanked God she had a nice roommate since they share rooms there. Her bed was placed in an odd corner of the room and she looked thrown into a corner not equally sharing the room at all. We will not be back. EVER!

The outdoor walking path and amenities are lovely. Mother is very happy and content here. She doesn't pick at her arms anymore (sign of boredom and anxiety).
