they have it all!!

When my Aunt and Uncle both needed help with dementia and assisted living at the same time, no one would help. Doctors, hospitals etc. I was at my wits end. Then I punched in A place for Mom and within 10 minutes got a call from chestnut knoll and they handled everything for me from paperwork, transportation and getting them settled. I give the place a 10 for administration, nurses, aides for making the move easy and taking a lot of responsibility off my shoulders. This place is a 10 all around and I've been thru a lot of places that were bad. The place is clean with plenty of activities, staff are excellent with care. You need help you just ask .Both of my relatives love it there and they say how nice everybody treats them. They never ask to go back home which should tell you alot. Again I give the place, staff a big 10 excellent !! .... Read more

About the facility Chestnut Knoll

A purposefully designed community for seniors, Chestnut Knoll offers both personal care and memory care. The homey environment affords residents the opportunity to tend to plants in the raised gardening beds and enjoy games and activities in the country kitchen. This community, managed by Heritage Senior Living, offers a proactive approach to health through the FOX Optimal Living Program. Physical therapists engage residents in exercise classes and preventive measures, as well as rehabilitation and therapy.

The community’s memory care neighborhood follows Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care and promotes engaging activities, socialization, and independence. This secure area features beautifully decorated murals and life stations. Chestnut Knoll also offers support for family members through educational and support groups affiliated with the Alzheimer’s Association.

Chestnut Knoll is ideally located in a quiet residential neighborhood, near the Boyertown Community Library. Shopping, dining, and parks surround the area. Local attractions include the Boyertown Museum of Historic Vehicles, Pottsgrove Manor, an 18th century Georgian mansion, and the Daniel Boone Homestead, which features educational tours and interactive exhibits.

Back on my feet again

When I had to get surgery, I knew I wasn't going to be able to go home alone right away. The Chestnut Knoll team worked fast to get me in there for a respite stay. Thanks to the FOX team and the staff at Chestnut Knoll, i was back on my feet within the month. I don't know what would've happened to me if I tried going home by myself. I still come back for their exercise classes. Their food is very good and the staff are so nice.

When entering CK, you are greeted by caring staff members. Touring CK, you get to see how clean housekeeping keeps it. When it's time to eat, dining at CK is an experience for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Full calendar of activities plus Fox rehab.

Great place to live!

The staff is amazing, they go above and beyond for their residents. My father has always been well taken care of here, even with his dementia. I highly recommend to anyone who is seeking care for their elder family member(s).

Everyone at Chestnut Knoll knows the residents and their visitors. Out of several places we toured or lived in, this is the one that feels like family. The caregivers really seem to care about the residents. I feel comfortable having my spouse there because they can care for him better than I can.

Memory Care

My sister has been at Chestnut Knoll for Memory Care for a couple of years. She is in her 60s but has had dementia for 20 years and is in the advanced stage. Dementia patients are all unique and Chestnut Knoll knows this. Nothing surprises them. Every employee is caring and patient, and looks for personality within that can seem lost to many. It was a huge relief to me to place my sister here. I can't visit her as much as I would like. Nonetheless I don't worry about her. I transferred her from another facility and she made the transition unexpectedly smoothly. I know she is content and happier than she has been in years because she is safe and the atmosphere is consistent. I usually visit in the morning and the breakfasts are great, so she actually gained weight which was a huge goal. Memory Care staff are very accommodating to residents' varying and ever changing needs. The staff is a team and they work together well.

overall a nice community and I would recommend it.

There has been quite a bit of main staff turnover in the last 12 months. It hasn't caused any issues that I'm aware of, other than it being a little confusing about who to contact with questions. I think the size of the facility and the nature of the residents are a good fit for my mom. It's not too large and the residents are average people.

Extremely pleased with the friendly, helpful staff.

The place just had a very warm feel even at our first visit. Coming from a very bad situation and a facility that was not doing a good job, this was important. The staff have all been extremely helpful and have gone out of their way to help my mother. We are very pleased with what we have seen in the short time she has been there. I really don't know much as to the food. Only ate there once. But that one time was very good. They go over and beyond to help my mother who has been a very difficult case for them. [name removed] the memory care director has told us numerous times that my mom seems to be a difficult nut to crack but they will continue to work with her to see what works.

Felt like home

My Mom had dementia and was at Chestnut Knoll for the last six months of her life. Everyone there is friendly, kind, compassionate and caring. The facility is fun and set up very well. There are activities going on all the time and the residents are stimulated and encouraged to be part of the group. The Fox Therapy team is also wonderful and worked well with my mom! She received wonderful care from all the staff and it felt like she was really home. Caring hospice was wonderful and they kept her very comfortable during her last few weeks. My only regret is that we didn't get her here sooner. We are truly thankful for everyone at Chestnut Knoll!

Beyond Happy with Chestnut Knoll

The staff and management are very caring. They are great at facilitating outside appointments and transportation. Management is very responsive. They use the Teepa Snow positive approach to caring for people with memory problems and are dedicated to helping everyone. The food rating is based on not knowing and I feel it's at least a three based on what I have seen. A census is done every hour so it's comforting to know our loved one is checked upon regularly. They also have different support groups. I am very happy with everything about Chestnut Knoll and confident that our loved one is receiving excellent care.

Positive and Uplifting Experience

Mom and Dad moved to CK in [date removed] at the start of COVID. Dad was in Memory Care and Mom was in resident assisted living. Dad's dementia got worse and he passed away in [date removed]. It was hard for Mom losing Dad only a few months into living at CK. However, the staff and other residents got her into playing games, exercising, etc. She began to thrive at CK and even would encourage others to participate in activities and crafts. She truly loved her resident friends and staff. Staff would come up to me when I'd visit and say how much they loved Mom. This is what an assisted facility should be. A positive experience. We would recommend CK to anyone looking for an assisted living facility for their loved one(s) or even themselves.
