Recent reviews for assisted living in Shamokin
Vintage Knolls in Danville, PA
4.0
It's roomy, many areas where residents can spend individual time or visit with other residents without being alone in their rooms all the time. Quality of food is very good. I think it is very homey.
Serenity Gardens in Kulpmont, PA
4.4
Some staff definitely go above and beyond and give time and show they care to the individuals. The activities coordinator is great at keeping the individuals busy. The staff are why we chose this facility. My mom does not love the food, but her overall care is more important.
Nottingham Village in Northumberland, PA
3.8
I chose Nottingham because it was considered one of the better places in the area. I was impressed by the design of the building and the layout of the community. I think the outside courtyard area can be larger.
