- NBNatalie BarandesJan 20, 20265.0The folks at Carnegie East House helped me save my mother. I was 3000 miles away and they helped me get my mom settled and made her feel like family. Angela is at the helm and she walked me through navigating my mother's care every step of the way. Her staff treated my Mom with extraordinary kindness and respect. My mother gives Carnegie six stars. If you are seeking a safe, top quality independent living for an aging loved one, reach out to Angela and the folks at Carnegie East. It's hard enough to transition a loved one from one life style to another, with the amazing caring folks at Carnegie, you are in the best hands. I cannot thank these angels enough. Highly recommend.
