I moved here a year ago from Florida and was very nervous, but everyone here was so caring and I felt at ease. It never felt like I was in a facility, it felt like home and the staff felt like family. You couldn't ask for a better place.

Great community
I recently toured this community for my mom and was very impressed. We weren’t expecting to have to make the move to senior living, but life happened and we have found ourselves in a position to make a move more quickly than originally thought. When we came to Palmyra and met with the team, our fears were quickly erased. The team was very knowledgeable, and answered all of our questions. The residents all appeared well cared for, and looked like they were having a lot of fun playing bingo. The community is smaller, but that is part of the appeal. I don’t feel like my mom would be just another person at Palmyra Senior Living, like I worry could happen at a larger facility. Our experience at Palmyra Senior Living definitely made this an easy decision for us.

Caring and Loving
We are having an exceptional experience at Palmyra Senior Living. The facility is outstanding on all ends. The staff is loving, compassionate and caring. Recreation does a great job, always something fun happening, just positive vibes throughout the facility at all times. The nurses and caregivers are very pleasant and tentative. Business office staff and Administration are/is always available and helpful. Food is 5 star, Dad never lets me bring outside food, he loves the food. The facility is in great condition, very well kept and always shining. Would definitely recommend!!!

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Pennsylvania regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Pennsylvania regulations for Assisted Living.
