Recent reviews of Memory Care in Palmerton, PA
Bethlehem Manor Senior Living
5.0 / 5.0

We have been very happy with Bethlehem Manor, we would highly recommend them to any family. They are a very caring group of people. Our loved one was nervous her first day but they were so helpful with the transition and made her feel comfortable right away. She now has fit right in and is very happy. Overall she likes the food, but because of the covid restrictions we just aren't sure how many activities are going on.

South Mountain Memory Care in Emmaus, PA
5.0 / 5.0

My Mother has been a resident at South Mountain for 2 months now. Every time we come to visit her, she tells us how nice the place is, how clean it is, how good the food is and how she looks every day for something to be wrong with it, but she cannot find anything. If you knew my Mother you would know she definitely means that!! The staff is always smiling, friendly, courteous and helpful. If you have any questions everyone is there to help. I am very pleased with our decision in choosing South Mountain for her care.

Atrium of Allentown
3.5 / 5.0

The facility is very well maintained. The staff is friendly. They are understaffed for the amount of residents they have. In memory care, my loved one needs a little more attention than she's getting. Recently it looked like she hadn't been showered in a week. And her teeth were not clean. She does seem to be happy there. And they do a lot of activities. I would like to see them improve the food. Sometimes it's difficult to eat - it needs to be softer or be able to be easily cut into smaller pieces.
