Redstone Highlands

Of the three places we visited, it is just Redstone Highlands at North Huntingdon that we were impressed with right now. It was a very informative tour. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the place. The staff could not show us a two-bedroom unit, which is what we would prefer, but we got to tour a one-bedroom unit. She took us on a complete tour, explained everything, and invited us to stay for lunch, which was very good. It was like eating in a restaurant. The only thing that was self-service was the salad bar, so we were quite impressed with that. The whole layout of the grounds sits on a former dairy farm, so it's very tranquil and peaceful. They have a lot of outside benches and firepits and things where you could just go outside and sit. It seems like there are a lot of activities going on, and we were very impressed with that, too. However, it's on the upper part of the expense. But you get what you pay for. And the staff members were very courteous and informative. My husband has Parkinson's, and so another thing that we were impressed with at the Redstone was that they have classes and exercises going on all the time for those patients. In our situation, that's a big requirement that we would have that added care for him.

I like that once I will be in Redstone Highlands North Huntingdon, I don't have to move again, because you can step up to additional care if needed. They had very little turnover in staff and it has been very well maintained and very clean with nice amenities and location. You get some housekeeping every other week. There is laundry service in your apartment, or if you choose not to do that, there's a facility on each floor. There is a garage if you choose that extra. The apartment is nice, because it's a little less than two bedrooms, but it's more than one bedroom. It's a bedroom den with a bathroom and balcony. So, it's exactly what I was looking for.
