It is impossible to. emphasize enough how wonderful an experience it has been to be working with the staff at Coachman Square. If I had sat down and written the criteria which would have made the perfect interaction and help, all of them would have been met and exceeded! [name removed]s simply incredible! Her help and care could not possibly have been better: she defines that which is the true professional. The facility is amazing, and I am confident I could not find one that is as wonderful. In short, Coachman Square is the perfect place for you to consider as you plan the next change in your life!

The staff here has been great. My mom has been in the memory care unit since just before Christmas. She is very happy and feels safe. It’s so nice to finally spend my time with her as a daughter and not a caretaker. They have been so kind and patient with her and I’m so relieved to have found this place.

First and foremost, my Mother in Law, my husband and I, and the staff at Benchmark are partners in ensuring her care and lifestyle is exactly what she needs. They aren't afraid to meet her where she's at physically and mentally on any given day. We're pleased at the level of engagement she has with the other members there too.

I have known about this facility for many years. I choose this place as some additional services were available for my Mom. As a retired nurse practitioner, I am confident that my Mom is in a good place. She is doing better than when she was in her own home. I would go there!

My mother has been at benchmark for three months. Her care here has been exceptional. The facilities are wonderful and the food is great. Most importantly, the loving care that she’s received is tremendous. The nurses and aids are attentive and exceptionally loving. There are many examples of me walking into the room and an aid is sitting by her side, holding her hand. They call her “beautiful“ and often give her a kiss on her forehead. One aid offered to come in on a day off to wash her hair, another aid went to lunch and brought back a dessert for her, the list goes on.

This is a smaller place where one gets to know all of the staff and other residents. The staff are excellent and able to individualize care. Many of them have been there for years because they like working there. The apartment we have is very comfortable with big windows looking out at the woods. The restaurant style dining room is very nice. Excellent chef with a full menu and a couple of specials every day for both lunch and dinner

I give the branches at Marlboro a 10 out of 10 in all categories. It was pricey but fortunately I had the money... I wish everyone could receive that kind of care and attention to detail. I loved the direct communication, and because we had an unfortunate situation, I appreciated the confidentiality. [name removed] was very happy there.

Cleanliness - slightly lower here since my mom often refuses service, but she really needs it given her condition. Dining/meals - surprisingly good and nice variety. Activities - activities were a main reason why we picked The Falls, as they are some of the exact things she likes (museums, art lectures, etc), but it's also frustrating that she often chooses not to participate. Value for cost - I struggle with this. The Falls is in an area with very high property taxes which makes them way more expensive vs other places within 20minute drive. But you do get what you pay for.
