The Faidley House in Monongahela, PA

The food is good. Help with showers due my disabilities is great. Place is warm in winter, cool in summer. Best is how nice the owners and their employee daughters are to all of us.
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.
Newhaven Court at Lindwood in Greensburg, PA
4.5
They are very quick with communicating any timely issues like medicine, illness and injury.
Everyone I encounter seems to know my dad by name and they have gotten to know him too, which is a comfort.
Maintenance is quick to reply to resident needs.
