Recent reviews for memory care in Whitaker

Easy Living Estates of New Stanton in Hunker, PA

4.4
We're very pleased with the care at this community with one major issue. It's a lovely place, very clean, and the staff are friendly. However, they cannot deal with any sort of intravenous care. Any sort of IV has to be done elsewhere, which may be an issue for some residents.

Paramount Senior Living at Cranberry in Mars, PA

My loved one was at Paramount at Cranberry on hospice for a brief time after a medical decline. They were a bright spot for our family during a very dark time.
