[name removed] passed away last March. They were very caring and took great care of her. I feel that the close attention they give to their residents was amazing. One of the caretakers there treated mom as his own. Called her mama.

Easy Living Estates of New Stanton in Hunker, PA

4.4
We're very pleased with the care at this community with one major issue. It's a lovely place, very clean, and the staff are friendly. However, they cannot deal with any sort of intravenous care. Any sort of IV has to be done elsewhere, which may be an issue for some residents.
