Great Place for Mom
reviewed on: 11/28/2016 by AnonymousThis is a great place for Mom !! the staff is caring and helpful. I was in need of a place with a home feeling and quick and this was the place. they did not make you feel like all they wanted to know was how much money Mom had , which was wonderful.
Very Happy
reviewed on: 03/30/2015 by Terry MillerEmeritus of Allentown is friendly, warm, and inviting. They have gone the extra mile to make my mother feel welcomed. They have been most helpful in handling the VA forms. Mom is legally blind and very hard of hearing and they have embraced her issues and developed ways of dealing with them that have been acceptable to all concerned.
Very Disappointed
reviewed on: 04/06/2018 by AnonymousVery disappointed in the way things have changed since under the new owners. The care has declined, the food choices are terrible, and not always enough to go around,crumbs and dirt in patients rooms. Nursing Staff rarely keeps family members up to date on status of patient. If patient doesn't want to eat, participate with activities, do therapy then the attitude is too bad! Should be more trained RN's on each floor 24 hrs a day, to better watch the patients and control their meds. Also have staff that can speak all languages especially English better. Transportation for appointments is a joke, this is Assisted Living you need a better means of transporting patients and more availability!! Wheel chair van's a must, not a bus with big steps to get up. Communication with patients and families are a must in your facility so concerns can be addressed, instead of hiding behind closed doors!!
