Amazing and affordable community
We recently had experienced a loss in our family that required immediate placement for my mom. I looked at several communities and almost gave up hope that we would find something both nice and affordable until I came across Chestnut Ridge. From the minute that I sat down to speak with [name removed] to learn more about the community, I felt at home. She was very communicative with me and went above and beyond to help me through the application and move in process. She made the transition easy for both me and my mom. The community offers so much for the residents to do and the staff is all very nice. They take the time to update me when I see them and speak with my kids when they come to visit. They truly care for the residents and know them all by name. It’s always very clean and they really take good care of my mom. She absolutely loves her new home. I feel like a weight was lifted off of my shoulders knowing that she was in a safe place. I am so happy that we chose Chestnut Ridge.

Would recommend this community
Residences at Chestnut Ridge is an excellent community. There are plenty of activities for the residents to participate in. The director is very nice, this is a very clean and bright place. They seem to take good care of their residents, and are very kind.

My husband and I were so happy as soon as we arrived. The building is in excellent condition, the entrance foyer was immaculately clean, as well as all of the other common areas. [name removed] showed us several different layouts and each floor was clean and the residents that we met were so friendly. Chestnut Ridge looks like a great place for your senior years. We are headed back there today, with my mother in law, to have lunch and to put down a deposit You can immediately tell that all employees genuinely care about the residents and that the residents are genuinely happy. [name removed] went above and beyond with us, she is a great person. Thank you [name removed] for suggesting this place for our mom!

Home away from home!
The staff is wonderful, they have been great for my mom. Prior to COVID they had bingo, they used to have a little cafe area and at 3:00pm everyday the chef would make little snacks before their dinner. They also had exercises classes, chair exercises. On Friday's they took trips to different shopping events, different restaurants and even the casino. My mom is in the assisted living part, and she has a beautiful apartment. Its very spacious, she has a small kitchen, a couch and a chair along with her full bedroom set. It is larger then some of the other rooms we saw. On every floor there is a common area, that the residents could go watch TV or even play pool. The staff is always on top of everything when it comes to the cleanliness of this community. We have had no complaints!

Overall good experience to date
This community has done a pretty good job overall, i would just like to see a little more communication from them. Since COVID they have been a little better about communicating with the families. They provide arts and crafts for the residents, but as of right now we aren't sure what activities they still have for their residents. They have made secure areas with plexiglass that allows families to see their loved ones. The food was just okay. The layout is perfect, it was formally a hotel. All the rooms have their own AC/heating units. My mom is in a single room. As of right now this community has had no cases of residents getting sick with COVID. One thing that really stood out to us was that it had a great atmosphere, and is cost effective for us.

RUN, NOT A 1 STAR RATED COMMUNITY
Toured this community with my Brother. This community says that it is in Wallingford, FIRST LIE. It's in Chester. The outside of the building, trash is blowing all over the parking lot (gloves, diapers, papers - which had residents name on them). We had scheduled a tour with Chestnut Ridge, it took the front desk person, 40 minutes to find someone to tour us. The person who toured us was the Business Manager, who had no clue about the community, didn't have keys to unlock the apartments to see. We asked about the independent living, not that Mom is going there, she needs assisted living. Business Manager said that Independent Living is for Section 8, not the assisted living side, than asked if we had good money to spend in the assisted living (not appropriate). Toured the dining room, in basement (elderly person on the floor, she said don't worry someone will get her). We ended the tour right there. Not a good first, middle or end impression.

Chestnut Ridge
There are good & bad everywhere, however my Mom is calmer at chestnut ridge, likes it and has a wonderful care taker named [name removed]. [Name removed] is soft spoken, knows how to deal with the dementia residences, and treats them individually. She should be commended. And she should have assistance. These caretakers have a tough job. On the downside, there are always missing items like hearing aids, bedspreads, clothes. In addition, the washers & dryers need to be replaced on the 5th floor.

Our Mother is a Resident in the Memory Care Unit
Our mother has been a resident in the memory care unit of Chestnut Ridge for the last three months and we have been extremely pleased with the professional and compassionate care provided by the Director and Care Providers on the 4th Floor. They are very involved with the residents and provide activities which allow them to be engaged as a community. They offer a program which involves, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing services, and organized activities to enhance the overall well being of each resident. Our experience has been very positive and we have comfort in knowing that our mother is receiving the highest quality of care.

My has been there for 8 1/2 months. She has dementia and the initial adjustment was rough. But the staff was great at helping her to adjust, getting her to meals and activities. She has since moved to the memory floor and is doing well. The staff is caring and everyone knows her name. I think it is important to be involved and aware of what is going on with your loved one. The physical therapy department was very helpful in getting her to use a walker. There are also seasonal activities that families are invited to attend. They are fun and the clients love them.

Home away from Home
We are thankful for the friendly atmosphere, comfort level of resident interactions, and personal care given by the aides.
We find the cleanliness amazing and the variety of activities made available each day to the residents creates a real family feeling among those living there.
Chestnut Ridge was the excellent choice.

My brothers good care
My brother is doing very well at this nice community. The staff is very nice and attentive to his needs. We like that he is living in a clean community and getting good care. The menu is appealing and he seems to be very happy with the nice variety. He is really like playing cards with the other residents. We would recommend this community for the great care of that is offered.

Best kept secret!
This Senior Residence is a best kept secret in Delaware County.
Nestled at the edge of Chester City and Wallingford, tree lined property.
The country feel as you approach the main entrance, with seating, rocking chairs, and beautiful green shrubbery hiding you from view and noise of the traffic was a plus.
The public areas all nicely decorated. The receptionist always helpful and pleasant offering refreshments while waiting for staff or the elevator.
The dining room atmosphere was equal to private fine dining. I stayed for lunch and was amazed at there being so many menu items to choose from.
What struck me most, is that the Residence at Chestnut Ridge did not have an "old smell".
It was a lovely experience and after 2 unannounced visits and 1 official tour I completed the application process. [Removed] was a joy to work with. She introduced me to everyone that handles anything. They were all warm and inviting.
If you are looking for a safe and sanitary, warm and caring community. Chestnut Ridge is the place!.
