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.

Country Meadows of Bethlehem
4.1 / 5.0

Connections at Country Meadows Bethlehem is in a lovely setting. The staff is made up of kind, caring, patient people. Everything is positive and upbeat, and the food is amazing!

Alexandria Manor Senior Living Centers in Nazareth, PA
4.8 / 5.0

This community is wonderful, the staff members are great. They do offer activities, for example during the holidays they have carolers come by, and in the summer they bring in live entertainment. This community is located in a very nice are and is close to the hospital. From our understanding our loved one enjoys the food. They have nice big round tables for the residents to sit at and engaged with each other. They also encourage the residents to eat always at the dining table and not in their rooms.
