I have seen firsthand that Arbors residents are well cared for. They are clean and ready for the day ahead. I love watching the staff interact with residents. The courtyards are beautiful and everyone is outside getting fresh air. Activity workers are always busy keeping everyone active.

Split Rock is a fantastic facility. My mother has been a resident in the Assisted Living for almost 1 year. The staff is attentive and very professional putting their resident’s needs as a priority every day. The nursing staff does a tremendous job in monitoring and assisting in medications and care. The resident aides treat my mother with attentiveness, patience and compassion as if they were caring for their own mother. The activities staff is creative and interactive with the residents providing much appreciated social activities. Executive staff is approachable and engaging with family members. Walking in is like coming home.

What our family likes most about Benchmark Senior Living at Robbins Brook is the helpful staff members. Our mother in law is very happy with the different activities, the different meals that are prepared and the staff members. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would definitely recommend this community to other families looking for a place for their loved ones.

Very depressing at first not having experience with senior living facilities. [Name removed] was excellent. And just to clarify, it wasn't [name of community removed] that was depressing, just seeing the tenants different conditions and second guessing putting mom in there.

I was appointed guardian of my father as he was no longer able to care for himself. My dad was diagnosed with dementia and he could not stay in his home alone anymore because he was not safe. I do not live in New Hampshire and moving my dad to my state was not an option because his life and friends are here. I couldn't be selfish and think about what would be easier for me but instead to think about what would be best for dad. I started the process of looking for a nursing home and this not an easy task. I interviewed several nursing homes looking for the right fit for dad. When I interviewed The Arbors and scheduled a tour I knew I had found the right forever home for my dad. [names removed] and the rest of the staff do an amazing job. They are all awesome. Maggie. the resident dog is the sweetest too. My dad loves dogs so she is a bonus. The Arbors treat my dad like a king and it gives me such piece of mind to know that he is well taken care of and safe.

We looked at four facilities and Benchmark was the only one without a locked ward. My husband can walk all day to his heart's content as the building is designed in a big circle. Every staff member knows all the clients and greet them by name. The level of personal attention and cheerfulness of the staff is endearing. Dining staff are attentive to a fault on particular needs and preferences of the clients. Professional staff are accessible and accommodating.

My family and I visited The Arbors in Bedford recently for a tour and we were met with such an amazing staff and extremely clean facility! It was clear how much goes into each resident that they care for and what fun activities they offer to keep everyone engaged. Definitely a place I would feel easy about with caring for a loved one.

The staff at The Arbors is pleasant and welcoming. I love the brightness of the community and how residents aren’t in a small confined space on the ground floor - like a lot of other assisted livings. Programming is always hard at creating fun experiences. I love their Facebook posts. I find their pricing to be good and fair.

The staff are very dedicated to the residents happiness and comfort. The atmosphere is friendly. The food is excellent. I went to multiple places and this was more affordable and I liked the fact that there were lots of people around down on the first floor . Some participating in activities and others just sitting together. It was a friendly busy atmosphere.

Moved our mother here after a bad experience elsewhere. They are so caring and are like a family. The staff rarely changes, which is so important and telling if a facility like this. The food is decent and they are constantly doing activities. They rarely watch TV except for movie night and maybe before bedtime. I'm so happy we moved my parent here. It's disturbing how bad the place she came from ended up being.

If we could give the friendliness of the staff and their quality of care 10 stars, we absolutely would. My husband really really likes the community, it definitely was the top choice for us. It is very welcoming and inviting. We hated that we had to take our loved one out because he started doing so well there. They are just so caring and friendly, everything was so great and we would absolutely recommend to other families.

He did like the happy hour, and music that they offered. The staff was excellent, and they were top notch. Overall, I would recommend to other families.
