Review for The Birches at Harleysville
I would say the staff is very friendly and truly seems to care about the residents. They get to know each resident they care for and try to cater to their particular needs. We chose the Birches based on cleanliness, responsiveness, and location compared to some other facilities.

From the stately exterior with a clocktower feature to the well-maintained courtyards, gardening beds, and peaceful walking paths, you’ll feel a sense of belonging before you even step inside. Indoors, you’ll find an atrium with high ceilings, and relaxing spaces such as the aviary, the inviting library and computer area, and movie theater.

The Birches at Harleysville Assisted Living.
During the past two years, my wife and I assisted a cousin with finding an assisted living apartment where she would receive medical assistance with daily activities and with several minor medical procedures. We selected The Birches of Harleysville after evaluating other assisted living facilities in Montgomery County. My cousin and I found a caring, supportive staff that evaluated her capabilities and developed a care plan to support her activities of daily life. [name removed] enjoyed her apartment which provided her with a bright and airy atmosphere yet allowed her to be medically supervised. The staff assisted with her transition and encouraged her involvement in community activities. We were fortunate to find this caring and medically competent facility to care for my cousin.

I would definitely recommend it. My sister likes being with other people her age and getting to spend time with others playing games, watching movies and going on trips in the bus to lunch or just taking a scenic ride. It is warm, bright and cheery inside.

My review of The Birches at Harleysville
This facility has been pretty good so far. The staff is very friendly. The food seems to be good, good quality and variety. My loved one has eaten in the dining room a few times and it's really nice and clean. She mostly has her meals delivered to her room, though. I will say, Communication with the family could improve. Trying to get medical information/updates on my loved one is pretty difficult. If you need information, you have to seek it. They're pretty good about responding when I call, but they don't ever call me or reach out to me unless I've reached out to them first. Overall, I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

Wonderful senior living community, the best in the area! The staff put together wonderful events for the residents and for the community as well. The building feels like you are very warm and welcoming, and the staff are all very friendly. The Executive Director gave me a tour and he was also very knowledgeable and knew all the residents and staff by their first names.

My mom has been at The Birches for a year now and honestly every time I speak to her, she tells me how much she loves it there. All the staff goes above and beyond to meet mom’s not only her physical but emotional needs. The residences are so kind. At this point we feel like they are our extended family.

about The Birches at Harleysville

The Birches at Harleysville offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Birches at Harleysville 9.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
