The Birches at Harleysville proudly announces its selection as a "Best Assisted Living" community in the U.S. News & World Report 2025 Best Senior Living Ratings.

            The 2025 edition names 1,894 senior living communities nationwide for

excellence in one or more care service categories.

            Since launching its Best Senior Living Ratings in 2022, U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in health care rankings and consumer advice, has helped seniors and families identify independent living, assisted living, memory care, or continuing care retirement communities that align with their needs.

            The ratings reflect survey responses from nearly 450,000 residents and family members across more than 3,800 senior living communities nationwide. The survey asked participants to rate satisfaction with safety, caregiving, activities, management, staff, dining, value, and other aspects of community life.

            In addition to its "Best" recognition, The Birches earned a "High Performing" accolade for its Memory Care community, specifically for outstanding performance in the food and dining category. U.S. News granted this distinction to communities that scored in the top 25% of evaluated communities nationwide for caregiving, activities and enrichment, management and staff, food and dining, and homelike environment and met other certain criteria.

            Justin Mason, executive director of The Birches at Harleysville, said, "It's an honor to have The Birches recognized as Best Assisted Living by U.S. News & World Report. This recognition reflects the strong connections, vibrant lifestyle, and dedicated care our team strives to deliver each day. We're deeply grateful to our residents and their families for trusting us and for embracing the warm, welcoming community where they're proud to call us home."
