They don't check on love one often enough. Even when the call bell Is in place, I waited at least 30mintutes to 1 hr for them to change my love ones. My love one is soak when I get there and she is missing the call bell. My love one lost personal items like teeth and phones never notify the family why the lost and not paid to replace. The house keeps stink... For two weeks, dead leaves on the carpet... Staff do not even know who they are working with or adress family members with their names. I only got my Christmas photo and it is February... I would recommend some where else like other post, high turn over rate.

The service is terrible. They can't keep any steady workers. The clients go for hours upon hours without being checked on or changed. Some sit and wait for food to be delivered if they aren't able to make it to the dining hall. This is one of the worst places I've experienced.

While the staff here are usually friendly, my loved one completely missed dinner because nobody came to help wheel her to the dinner room. They’ve had terrible understaffing issues, which has led to residents not receiving basic care, such as meals. 👎🏼

In search of a new home for my father, I discovered Celebration Villa of South Hills. During the first visit and tour, Roberta welcomed us and explained the services, charges, and admission process thoroughly. As we toured the community, we observed her interaction with the residents, and were impressed by how well she knew them. It was a clear indication of the staff’s care and concern for the residents.<br><br>It is a lovely, well-kept community, and it has a "homey" feel. My dad is treated with dignity and respect by the staff; they are kind, caring, and patient. It is common for my dad to comment on how well he is cared for. There is a friendly atmosphere among residents, and they show a general concern for each other. After spending a week in the hospital, my dad returned to a warm welcome from the residents.<br><br>My family and I are incredibly pleased with our decision, and we highly recommend Celebration Villa to anyone looking for a senior community in Pittsburgh.
