Resident & family reviews

Staff truly shows that they care for their residents despite the staffing issue they have. Cross keys seems to rely on agency too often. Not the same as it used to be. Only good thing i can say is the Nurses and CNAs need to be recognized for how they have been handling this situation

Visiting Angels of Hanover truly loves working with Cross Keys! Their memory support team goes above and beyond to implement meaningful resources and programs that support individuals living with dementia as well as their caregivers. The dedication, collaboration, and compassion their team shows make a real difference every day. We especially enjoy partnering with Erin and her incredible team — it’s truly a pleasure working together! 😊

Amazing community 🫶🏻 wonderful staff and villagers have so many amenities.

Well kept retirement community close to everything in HanoverPA

My grandmother was a resident for four months while recovering from a broken leg. Both she and I have extensive healthcare experience across different healthcare settings, so we have a clear understanding of standards of care as well as the challenges frontline staff face. The nurses, aides, and rehabilitation staff worked hard under fast-paced, understaffed, and demanding conditions, and their dedication was evident. Unfortunately, management’s reliance on agency nurses raised concerns, including one instance where my grandmother was delivered a meal tray and not checked on again for the remainder of the shift. Discharge planning support was also limited. As a caregiver, I received minimal guidance from the social worker and was frequently directed to seek information on my own. While I was able to navigate this due to my background, this lack of support would be difficult for families without healthcare experience. Additionally, there was no follow-up after discharge to ensure a safe transition. Overall, the experience felt focused on turnover rather than continuity of care. Pros: • Dedicated and compassionate nurses, aides, and rehabilitation staff who worked hard despite being overextended and understaffed • Strong rehabilitation support that contributed positively to recovery • Frontline staff showed genuine care and effort under challenging conditions Cons: • Heavy reliance on agency nurses led to inconsistent care and lapses in monitoring • Limited support and guidance from the social worker during discharge planning • Caregiver was often expected to independently coordinate next steps • No follow-up after discharge to ensure a safe and smooth transition

Been here for 5 years. GREAT place to live. Terrific, friendly environment.. Can’t beat it.If you cannot find something to entertain you, it’s not their fault.Great folks. Terrific service.
