Country Meadows of Wyomissing stands as a larger senior living community with about 80 residents and offers a wide range of care types, which means people can start out in independent living and move through assisted living, memory care, or even skilled nursing care if their needs change, and there's also home care so folks who want some care at home have that option, too. The community belongs to the Country Meadows Retirement Communities group, which has over 30 years of experience and operates ten locations in the region, so they've spent quite a while working with older adults and their families. People can choose from several apartment layouts, from studios and one-bedrooms to alcove suites or even Friendship Suites, with couples getting special rates when they share a space, and there's month-to-month rent instead of large buy-in fees.
Residents have access to staff with special training in personal care, memory support, and medication management, plus plenty of nurses on staff for extra medical attention when needed, and there's a licensed residential facility on-site for higher care needs. The Connections Unit serves as memory care for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and the staff in every department is recognized for being both competent and genuinely kind, often getting awards for friendliness and best activities.
Meals are served restaurant-style with a chef preparing nutritious options, and people can join group exercise, yoga, or stretching in the fitness center run by a fitness professional, all while enjoying outdoor walking areas and common spaces where pets are welcome too, since the policy allows pets to live with people as long as they can care for them. There are games, hobby groups, scheduled outings, field trips, spiritual programs, and various social events, and the Dynamic Living program keeps things active with entertainment and ways for folks to stay engaged.
Other helpful features include regular housekeeping, maintenance, on-site therapy services like occupational therapy and rehabilitation, diet and nutrition support, as well as WiFi in each apartment, and families or residents can use care planning tools and get guidance from staff when questions come up. Residents usually say the place feels neighborly but still private, and the safe environment encourages social connections, with easy transportation for shopping or doctor visits. The Wyomissing location holds a rating of 8.8 out of 10 and earned national recognition as Best Senior Living in Memory Care from US News & World Report. Community tours are available for people thinking about moving in, and personalized pricing aims to fit different care needs.
