6 Independent Living Communities in York, Pennsylvania

My dad is in Autumn House West. The room is fine; the facility is fine. However, their food is not very good, according to my dad. The staff are good. They play bingo and somebody comes in and sings. They're not taking them out of course. That's about all I know of their activities. My dad is bored there. Well, they have pretty much the same amenities with others. They have a salon and a TV room. It's basically everything that everybody else has. Value for money is good. They need to improve on the food; they need a chef that could cook. Their communication skills aren't very good, but they're getting a new administrator. The last administrator was OK. It's more of the nurses and the front desk staff that is hard to communicate with.

Country Meadows - Leader Heights has been very good. The facility is a good size and there are lots of activities. My dad can go out and eat and go on country drives, which is nice for him. They serve three meals a day, and he seems to like the food a lot. My dad's room is very nice, clean, comfortable, and came fully-furnished. The staff is very caring and attentive.

We visited Senior Commons. The apartments were way too small. The rooms are empty and you move your furniture in. They have more patients that were in assisted living than independent living. It wasn't the right environment for me.
