Holiday The Manor at Oakridge in Harrisburg, PA
4.0

Friendly staff however we think they need more than one matinance staff. Areas need paint. We really like the great variety of meal selections. Outside grounds seem well taken of. Need to make sure the inside is painted regularly

Paramount Senior Living at Chambersburg Road in Fayetteville, PA

Paramount senior living is a good value that is reasonably priced. This community has good value for the amount that they charge. They have activities like games, dominoes, bingo, crafts and hobbies, social hour, and recently resumed doing bus trips to different places around the community. There is lots to pick from to keep busy and socialize at this community.
