The staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. They treat the residents like family. The facility is clean and there are variety of sized apartments, where other places are the same size. There is one for your needs and the staff will work with you to fit your needs and income. Meals are good and plentiful. The community is comfortable, plenty of activities and residents thrive in the atmosphere. My dad lived alone in a big house and now that here is here, he wished he had move sooner.

We went to Country Meadows Retirement Communities. It was very nice. The apartments are very nice, they're very well equipped. It's a little different, it has a different layout. It was very nice, but just not as homey and not as comfortable as the other place. The staff was fine, she was very welcoming. It's older but clean and well kept. They have a salon, a chapel, and they have activities.

I toured Country Meadows Retirement Communities twice. My parents are used to upscale living, and they provided that. The interactions I've had with the staff were great. I noticed that when we were touring the facility, they knew everybody's name. They knew people by name so that impressed me. It was very clean, it was well cared for inside and out. It just popped, and it almost looked more like an upscale hotel than an assisted living facility. When it comes to the rooms, they had several different styles to choose from and in different sizes and varieties. So you get a good pick. Everything wasn't the same, there were several different options. I saw their menu and I inquired, they have their own chef. They don't bring in an outside food vendor, and that's important also.

We chose Country Meadows of Allentown for my Mother almost 4 years ago because of the professionalism of the marketing staff, the many activities that are offered and the various floor plans offered. We definitely made the right decision. The entire staff is caring and compassionate. Mom was recently hospitalized and when she came home I had the pleasure of experiencing life at Country Meadows 24/7 as she needed a lot of assistance. Again the staff was excellent, often going above the call of duty. Kudos to all. Activities coordinators, wait staff in the dining room, and those who prepare food, housekeeping, clergy, and maintenance department. Pastor Diane has helped me personally through some trying times. Couldn’t ask for a more compassionate and empathetic person. Kathy, Mom’s housekeeper always keeps her apartment very clean. She is professional and personable. Executive Chef Ed Galgon is constantly striving to create new and exciting dishes to the menu. There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude to Wendy Balik who keeps the facility running like a fine tuned car. She oversees the daily operation of this facility with all she has. I sleep well at night knowing that Mom is in the best hands that the Lehigh Valley has to offer.

My mother was in independent living at Country Meadows - Allentown for four years and I would rate that very highly. She went from independent living to assisted living and the price jumped dramatically with all the extra care added. We also put her in their skilled nursing when she broke her ankle. It's a campus with four buildings. The two buildings are independent living, one is assisted living, and one is called Pathways, which is between assisted living and skilled nursing. When she was in the independent living, she had a one-bedroom apartment with a living room and a full kitchen. The staff was fantastic. The food was gourmet. Everything was wonderful there. As far as activities went, one person couldn't fit everything into a day. There was always something going on. You get what you pay for.

Country Meadows was the largest population place, so everything was big. It is all in one floor; it is spread out. It is a little more rural, so there's a lot more grass around it and what-not. It gives you a feel that you're in a town. There were people playing crafts, puzzles, scrabbles and they had a game room. There were also lots of people gathered in the dining room. The units were about the same square-footage as anywhere else. It was a bit pricey than others, but they offered two meals a day. The public areas were large, the dining area looked like a big grand dining room, and the foyers were bigger. I saw more people because of the population size.

Excellent community. Separate buildings designed for different levels of care. Sectioned rooms for dementia patients. All faculty nice and smiling, patient and encouraging to the residents to remain as independent as possible. Many activities offered along with outside of the facility events, such as a trip to a Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs game. The care providers are rarely off their feet, always moving to complete some task to assist the residents. Staff is knowledgeable in all affairs. Food is fair quality. Staff makes their best attempt to meet all the needs of the residents. For example, most residents receive their own room. However, one couple requested a single room and they were graciously granted the room together. Moreover, the staff also assist the residents for their end of life procedures, such as creating a book that relays the resident's life to his/her friends and family. All in all, a great place to work and live as made possible by the dedicated staff of Country Meadows.
