I have seen a vast improvement in my Mom since admitted to Phoebe; first in short-term rehab, then in skilled nursing. Very warm, professional and knowledgeable staff; nutritional and creative meals; a philosophy of improving health (not just maintaining the status quo); and lots of stimulating activities. I would highly recommend!!!

My loved one ENJOYED the food! Staff at Phoebe Allentown Short term Rehab are very caring. They are as busy as any other rehab facility but that doesn't hinder their personal care. Aides are kind, smile, use humor and show patience. Most are friendly and communicative with family, esp if you reach out to them and stay involved on your end. Therapists are knowledgeable, adaptable and keep patients engaged. The large gym is clean and appears well equipped. Lovely and large covered porch with outdoor seating overlooking well maintained courtyard space with paved paths. Great for taking a walk with your loved ones.

Phoebe Ministries is an outstanding organization that excels. You can tell Phoebe values residential care when you are at their Allentown community. The Executive Director is experienced in all levels of care, and hospitality is her key focus. Employees seem to love working here, and residents feel heard. I recommend Phoebe Allentown to anyone who needs outstanding Senior Care!
