These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 13 findings, above the PA average of 10.1. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
William Penn Care Center receives highly polarized feedback, with some families praising the staff's patience and care, while others report severe neglect and staffing shortages. Critical concerns consistently center on hygiene, slow response times to call bells, and inadequate assistance with feeding and personal care. Families should be aware that experiences appear to vary significantly, with some reporting high satisfaction while others describe distressing conditions.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing staff and aides have been beyond patient with her excess prescriptions and are respectful and patient with the application of her ointment in personal areas. WP has always been quick to notify us of anything happening on their campus”
“My mother was brought from the hospital and stayed in her hospital gown and saturated diaper for 2 days. Was to get a shower and I saw she didn't and the nurse said ' we had a lot of call offs. We are working with 74 patients to 3 aides.'”
“As a side note, bedsores are common on long-term patients confined to bed and/or chairs, but after being there about 3 months, my husband never had even one bedsore. I attribute this to the inflate/deflate mattresses”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
