We were nervous to send my grandmother anywhere for rehab after a hospital stay when she fell ill. We heard good things about stapeley Wesley enhanced living and decided we would send her there. We are happy that we did. She received great care. The staff was very friendly, and the food was not bad. All my grandmother's needs were met and they kept us informed. I would recommend this facility to others
My mom and stepdad just moved into Stapeley a few weeks ago, and I have been so relieved to have them near me in a beautiful apartment that they love. Patrick, the sales manager, went above and beyond to help them get settled, and they are loving the food, the light, the balconies, and the birds. The look forward to more events and getting to know the members of the community when COVID restrictions ease up, but they've already met quite a number of people. Thank you Stapeley for making a home for them!
Wesley is absolutely a wonderful place for skilled nursing/rehabilitation as well as short and long term living.
Application process with intake was expeditious and they went above and beyond for my father whose dementia had progressed to a level where he was unable to remain at home with under my care anymore.
Nursing and support staff at Wesley are skilled, compassionate, accommodating, and fast. They work incredibly hard and act very patient with challenging residents.
The grounds are gorgeous, the facilities are certainly adequate, and cleanliness is sufficient. Some light activities are offered throughout the day to stimulate residents.
Staff are eager to incorporate family and loved ones into care plan and communicative about changes.
Social work is incredibly helpful in the application process for long term care with low income individuals like my father. They're also not afraid to advocate for resident needs and accommodation with insurance.
No nursing home is perfect, but this place is certainly an exceptional choice in Philly. I only wish staff were paid better, but that's an inherent problem in the nursing home care system in America.
As someone who was beyond frightened to bring my father into any nursing home, I'm delighted with Wesley at Stapeley.
My mother in law was there short term doing rehab and she loved it. People are nice, therapists are proactive and good, and they are very personal from their tour to their care. It felt very much like a comforting home versus just being a number and trying to get you in and out. I highly suggest for anyone that needs a short term rehab to go to the Wesley.
Its been about a month since we moved my mother into the Stapeley facility of Wesley Enhanced Living and my siblings and I are a very pleased. Mom's declining memory and other cognitive skills required a transition to a facility with expertise in memory care issues. The move from personal care at another Wesley residence to the Bridges unit at Stapeley was seamless. Patrick and his team helped my mom stay calm and eased her anxiety about moving to a new home. My mom has been much more active and is benefitting from a more structured daily routine. She even loves the food! Mom's journey continues in a safe and caring environment.
I do not think this review page could hold enough words to express the extreme gratitude my family feels for the staff at Wesley. This facility has had a direct hand in literally saving the life of my 89 year old mother Mildred! She suffered an unexpected and catastrophic decline in quality of life as a result of the Covid quarantine last spring. One minute she was living independently, and after two falls in her home she was fighting to live. My brother and I faced a life altering decision to admit her to a nursing home for permanent residency. We were truly blessed with our decision to choose Stapely! This staff, in particular, Assistant Director of Nursing Regina A.Johnson, Social Worker Larry Conway, and Direct Care CNA Trina Jones have earned my family's profound respect and admiration for their professionalism and compassion in helping mom to regain joy in her life experience at this fine facility. To see this level of care, especially in these unparalleled difficult times is so comforting. Thank you all!!!!
My mom moved to personal care at Stapeley early this week after moving from independent living near Downingtown. I am relieved not only because of the close location to my house but because everyone has been overly accommodating. The staff has been amazing and the residents have been warm and welcoming. Jannett escorted her to the bathroom yesterday and has been so helpful with everything. This morning at breakfast, Brianna, who knew her dietary needs, had her plate all ready and brought it out to her. I was moved to tears thinking about how sweet she was.The nursing staff has been great and mom keeps telling me how nice they all are. She enjoyed the activities...especially the chair yoga and concert this week. I am so thankful for this wonderful place and for the terrific staff at such a difficult transitional time for both my mom and for me! Thank you Stapeley.
I placed my best friend of fifty years, Steve, into Stapeley a little over a year ago. The last year of his life. I couldn't possibly say enough kind words of gratitude to the entire staff for their loving and professional care all year. Steve was very happy there. He had a beautiful assisted care apartment in which he was very happy. At any time I felt a need to contact the staff about anything, which was very seldom, it was immediately taken care of. To Ken, Jamie, Kathy, Jarrod, Jeanette and Mary his nurse when he was in hospice, and all the staff at Stapeley, I will always have a warm spot in my heart for you all for the way you made my friend's last year a happy one. God bless you all,

Been a resident of this place for a year in independent living. If you are looking for a place to retire, keep looking. This place is not for active seniors. Limited activities, limited dining options, and limited amenities. Construction on remodeled apartments is poor at best. The sink in my bathroom fell off the wall the second day I was here. The exterior windows haven't been washed in years. Staff turnover is very common.
Do your homework and investigate first.
Good luck
Another short staffed buffet. Why? If this is such a great place to work why can't they get people to work?
I used to work in senior care, and no facility in the Delaware Valley can match Stapeley. I help my partner take care of her mother, and our lives are made easier and our minds put at ease knowing that she spends most of her time in the care of Stapeley. It truly feels like a community. Even when there are imperfect moments, there is clear, timely communication and a desire to make things better. Even after 3 years, I am still continually impressed by the care and concern shown towards my mother in law.
