Review for Benchmark at Hanover

They were awesome, especially [name removed] the director of the Memory care unit. My mom was in a different community, and we had to move her out for lack of care. Benchmark was so kind to us and my mom for the last 6 months of her life.

Yes, it was a good experience. I filled out the application around 7:00 am and I was contacted about 8:00 am, I couldn't believe the quick response. It seemed a place was available for my friend within a couple of days! Which was just what we needed.

Village at East Farms tour

My meeting with the Admissions Director, [removed name], of the Village at East Farms Waterbury was very informative. She listened to my concerns and needs for my wife and guided me in the right direction...even though it was not specifically toward the East Farms Assisted Living community. The Village at East Farms is a very nice and immaculately clean facility. The staff were all friendly and inviting. I would enjoy living there myself. However, my wife needs a nursing home that can handle her advancing dementia related problems.

Review for The Birches at Concord

The experience for my mother as well as my working with the Birches has been outstanding. My mother is so happy there and is treated with love. I would highly recommend the Birches to anyone who is seeking a community for themselves or a family member facilitating this. I am very grateful. My mother has had this wonderful experience where she feels cared for and safe. I could go on and on, but I'm going to stop there.

Would Recommend for the Friendly Staff

The staff (administrative and on the floor) is strong, the place is really in great shape, and it's nice to see how well known my dad is to the team even after just a couple of weeks. A few times we've dropped in, he was just in front of the TV, and while I know it's not possible to be doing activities all the time (of course) I hope there are sometimes when they are doing more than just watching TV.
