Hawthorne woods by new perspective Senior living LLC in Washington pa , has got to be the most horrible place ever from management not caring about their residents to certain aides mistreating their residents & when you call corporate to complain about this matter, they don’t even care at all. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone and I hope one day this place gets shut down. I have never witness a place so bad until I seen this place and how their residents are being mistreated. Management does not care and they sweep things under the rug & their prices to live there is crazy and overpriced and their food sucks.

Hawthorne is a great community with friendly and attentive staff. They address concern's promptly and are always helpful. The community is comfortable and newly updated! Denise is very informative and makes it a smooth process for move in. Great experiences in the dining room and the food is always good!

The last time I visited Hawthorne, construction was still underway—but now, the vision has truly come to life! It’s incredible to see the transformation and the thoughtful improvements made throughout the Community. The atmosphere is completely different—in the best way possible. You can feel the excitement from both the Residents and the Team. Everyone seems energized and proud of the changes. Hawthorne is not just evolving physically, but emotionally and culturally as well. A beautiful place to live and work!
