Recent reviews of Memory Care in Chester County, PA
Freedom Village at Brandywine, a CCRC in Coatesville, PA
4.5

My mother has lived at Freedom Village since 1999, first in a beautiful condo, next in Assisted Living and finally in Skilled Care for the last 5 years. She is now 96 years old, legally blind, hard of hearing, and has advanced dementia. She spends most of her time in a wheelchair and is happy in her own world thinking most of the time that she is a teenager. She has had outstanding care. All of the staff have been very caring. Particularly, under stressful times, the Program Department has gone out of their way to keep all of the residents safely occupied. Freedom definitely gets 5 stars.

The Residence at Chadds Ford in Glen Mills, PA
5.0

I would definitely recommend this community. It is brand new and extremely clean. The community has everything my mom needs. The staff is very friendly, kind, and attentive. The communication is great and they have built a relationship with us.

Arbor Terrace Exton
4.0

We like the modern takes the facility has, it is brand new so it jumps out at you as being quite lovely. Since it is a newer community and them having to start fro scratch there are a few areas that could use some improvement, and work out the kinks. Most of the staff members are pretty friendly.
