I had the opportunity to visit this facility last week. I was impressed with the ample parking and overall cleanliness of the grounds and facility. We were welcomed by the staff and our tour was very informative. We were not rushed through or made to feel that we were causing any backup of people's time. Very friendly administration staff, nursing care, and maintenence department. Overall very pleased with this facility. Hoping my family will be able to make a clear decision on placement into memory care soon.

Amazing staff

Every single staff member were amazing. Some of them even spent some of their own time talking with him. They cared about every aspect of his wellbeing. They offered many activities and tried to engage him, but he was still going through the adjustment of not living on his own, he was starting to take part in things before he past. Everything was clean. The staff were always smiling. The food was good, they did listen when constructive feedback was made. The room was small, but that was the size we selected. It was expensive, but I feel the quality of care was worth the cost.

Our family would recommend the branches of Marlboro for your loved one.

The intake staff were great and things seem to be going well so far, She did say they serve too much fish but she is super picky. Cleanliness is great. Size of the room to us is what she needs but she is still adjusting to downsizing from a 2br 2 bath condo with full kitchen. so it will take time. But it is all appropriate for her situation.

Very Inviting environment

Place is very clean and always smelt fresh. They bent over backwards in the dining room and the meals were fantastic. The ladies that ran the activities were so positive and fun even though a lot of times they ran into resistance from the people living there. The front desk staff was always friendly and made you feel welcome. Being a smaller facility it definitely felt like everyone was family. I only have one complaint. I realize that it is a business and they have to raise money but if someone passes you should not have to give a 30 day notice and pay for that. If you chose to move out then I agree with the policy.

Highly and totally recommend The Village at Willow Crossings

The staff is exceptional each and every day. From top to bottom they take care of any and all needs. Everyone is kind, caring, and loving. They honestly never cease to amaze me. The facility is quite pretty and always clean. My mom's visitors are always impressed by its appearance. There are activities all day every day and the staff always welcomes any suggestions of new ideas. They offer trips to shops and restaurants regularly and even transportation to doctors visits if needed. If there is a need that you may have, they have got you covered. My experiences at Willow Crossings had been nothing short of exceptional and I can't imagine a better place for a loved one. I would recommend them a million times over! I would want anyone in need of this type of facility to absolutely check them out. They have given my family such a sense of peace. Absolutely totally satisfied with them

Great Experience!

My mom has been living at Arbors for almost a year now and it's been a great experience overall. The staff is welcoming and I love seeing the managers out and about with the staff and residents. They have a dog too! Nothing like being greeted by a sweet lab named [Name Removed]. Programs are 7 days a week and nurses is there around the clock. If my mom declines, she doesn't have to move. The building is older, but Arbors has been around for at least a decade, so it goes to show how good they are. My Mom isn't always easy, but they have no issues caring for her. Angels!

Our family's experience

So far the staff in the dementia unit are very attentive, the place is very clean, the room a good size and she loves the food here. The quality of care seems excellent. They have plenty of activities to keep her busy. They test her cognition every 30 days. I have had some issues with them not calling back the first few weeks and they were saying they never got the message but that seems resolved now. I will let you know if that changes. I will give them a 5 now for my limited time I have been back. She says she is very happy here and they seem like family. My only concern is for how expensive it can get if her levels of care go too high. She is at a Level 2 now out of 5 at [Amount Removed] a month.
