I experienced first hand other skilled care communities where the hospital sent my husband to rehabilitate. He found them depressing and I found them lacking. On the other hand upon walking into the Birches you get a whole different feeling. In fact after my husband was there he said to me \"When are we checking out?\". He thought we were at a hotel. The staff did their best and there were two workers who my husband and I liked VERY much. The activities were wonderful and we enjoyed them together. Musicians and singers were brought in and parties planned so we never felt like we were missing out on holidays. The activities director was VERY caring and would get my husband and take him to an activity when I wasn't there to do so. The price was much less than other facilities also.","reviewerDisplayName":"Lynn Klein","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Our family had a wonderful experience","reviewContent":"The Birches of Harleysville has such a caring and empathetic staff. I started working with [name removed] at the very onset of my mother needing additional care. Even though mom didn't live there for almost a year after our family started inquiring about their facility, the staff continued to stay in touch and answer any questions we had during our journey. When mom became a resident there, she immediately became part of their family and we were blessed to have such a caring staff. We visited as much as we wanted and were thankful that mom had the care she needed and deserved.","reviewerDisplayName":"Lisa K","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Time at the Birches","reviewContent":"Overall the experience was good.
