What Halcyon House Families Are Saying

“

A lot of people ask us why we moved to Halcyon House at our age (late 60s), and our reply is there are a lot of reasons! The apartments are spacious, and we love all the amenities on campus, from the game room and Circa 59 to the Epworth Chapel and the Salon. When we want to travel, we just let the front office know and walk out the door without having to worry about anything while we are gone. Moving to Halcyon House is one of the best things we have done!

I knew I needed some assistance, and I wanted to give my kids peace of mind. After a short-term rehabilitation stay, I decided to move into an Assisted Living apartment at Halcyon House. I enjoy it and am very happy here.

Maxine Peiffer
Sitler Assisted Living Resident
“

Everyone involved, from the nurses to the housekeepers, was so considerate and helpful. They all went above and beyond to make things nicer for me, and they ALL made an impression on me. I was up and going back to my regular daily routine, and it took much less time than the doctor thought it would.

Jim Dunn

The staff is always on time and show up with a smile. They are friendly and so nice and help me with whatever I need. I get great care!

You couldn't have asked for a more helpful staff for residents. If there is a blessing in being in a skilled rehab center, it was in meeting new friends...the care is so compassionate. It didn't seem like I'd be able to return to my home but with the encouragement and excellent therapy I received at the Halcyon House, I've been able to get back to my life and have returned to doing water aerobics!
