This is one of the most home like communities I have ever been in. The friendly and caring staff are top notch. You do not find communities with staff who have longevity anymore. What a hidden gem of a community.

My mom's first experience at Viva Senior Living was during a respite stay. She made friends immediately and the staff quickly developed a wonderful rapport with her. She liked it so much, that she decided to live there. The rooms were spacious, clean, and the various activities met the needs of the residents. Meal times were enjoyable and offered an additional time for socialization. Much attention was given to cleanliness and interaction with the residents. Viva is a great option for assisted living.

If I could get Viva Senior Living 10 stars I would. My father spent a year at Viva before passing away. It was one of his best years all because of the outstanding staff at Viva. Every single staff member is caring and helpful. Highly recommend!!

We recently transitioned my father into Viva SL at Harrisburg. While we had began our search for the right community for him a few weeks prior to his transition, it came much quicker than we had anticipated. He was hospitalized on a Friday and learned that his in-home care would no longer be able to support his needs. Upon learning this, I immediately reached out to Stacy from Viva late Friday afternoon to share our situation and see what Viva could do for us. We were in contact throughout the entire weekend completing the application and other required paperwork. Vivia made arrangements to complete his assessment that Sunday and he was able to move in upon his discharge from the hospital on Monday. Additionally, staff has been very responsive in assisting us with completing the required paperwork in support of my father’s application for VA Aid and Attendance benefits. Most importantly everyone has helped to ensure my father’s transition into his new home has been as smooth as possible.
