About the facility The Birches at Newtown

The Birches at Newtown provides options for personal care as well as memory care. You’ll find a warm, welcoming community with rustic touches reminiscent of a New England cottage. Cozy, shaded seating on the front porch offers a restful spot while the well-maintained courtyards and wide walking paths provide more opportunities to enjoy nature. Inside, you’ll find intimate seating areas, a grand piano waiting for you to play, and fun spots like a movie theater where you can watch your favorite films. Best of all, this community is pet friendly!

The surrounding area will give you a nice blend of a quiet, suburban life and all the amenities you could wish for. You’ll find several types of restaurants nearby, along with shopping. Newtown, Pennsylvania has a rich history you can explore, too. Visit The Court Inn, also known as the Half-Moon Inn, built in 1733. This restored space serves as the headquarters of the Newtown Historic Association, making it the perfect spot to begin studying the local history. For a fun afternoon, head to the Rose Bank Winery, which has a tasting room located in the historic Buckman Barn. Whatever interests you, you’ll find several places worth visiting just minutes away...

The Best Place for Mom

From the moment, my sister and I toured The Birches at Newton, we knew we found the best place for mom. Everyone we met was very friendly and upbeat. Our mom has thrived there and has become active and engaging again. We believe that the staff at The briches made all the difference for our mom.

Exemplary Care at the Birches

I have the highest praise and gratitude for the people who work at the Bitches. During her residence in personal care, memory care and hospice my mother received professional, attentive, and competent care. Most importantly, care was delivered with understanding and compassion to my mother, my sisters and me. We are forever grateful.

Great Place for Mom

From the moment we toured, we were met with an amazing, caring, and professional staff who warmly welcomed Mom and has continued to give her her best life. I would, and have recommended The Birches to all I know and will continue to based on my mother's experience and my own.

My parents have been in the memory care unit since before COVID. They've been well taken care of and the staff is always very respectful to the residents. Although my father passed almost [time frame removed] ago, my mom is still going strong. I'm very grateful to have the health care they provide and the safe community for my loved one.

Outstanding Facility

Any facility is only as good as the people staffing it. Most of the nicer facilities are similar physically. It's the staff that makes The Birches exceptional. My contact is in the memory care section where the staff from the director down are caring and dedicated.

A Place for Mom has scored The Birches at Newtown 9.9 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.
