The Willows was absolutely stunning. We would have chosen that but when we saw the 2 bedroom option at another community we were sold. Otherwise it would have been The Willows.

The Arbors is great at caring for loved ones with dementia. They can grow with residents and accommodate a lot of their needs. Programming is a big part of their community. I love that residents have so much safe space to walk and exercise. The outside courtyards are beautiful.

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.

We picked this community because it was close to where my loved one lived, and other familiy members. My loved one did not like the food, and mentioned that it was dry. 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.

My mother moved to the Arbors recently. I have been very satisfied and impressed with all the staff. They are attentive, competent and FUN! They truly love their jobs and it shows. Everyone knows my mother by name and they really take good care of her. I have no comment on the food or the activities as I have not experienced either. I appreciate every staff member I have met.

It was very difficult when we found out my mother needed to be in a memory care facility. Arbors of Bedford was recommended to us. I called and received a response right away. They were very good at taking the time for us to feel comfortable about this change. They communicated every step along the way. It allowed us to be able to focus on my mother and other things we needed to do for her. I would recommend The Arbors of Bedford if your elderly parent needs a memory care facility.

My mother is a current resident at The Birches at Concord and everything has been great here. There is a very high level of care and communication among the staff. The meals are tasty and tailored to the needs of the residents. The staff is responsive to resident requests for room modifications. I Definitely recommend The Birches at Concord as a Memory Care Facility to others.

My mother recently moved from her home of 6o years into an apartment at Split Rock. As you would expect, the transition has been a little challenging. I can honestly say that the staff at Split Rock made the move as easy as possible. They completely understand the situation and do everything they can to welcome your loved one. They welcomed my mother to her new home with a beautiful flower arrangement, and the support staff treated her like she has always been there right from the start. My mother has been impressed with how friendly and accommodating everyone has been. She also thinks the food is really good. So far things are going per plan.

We toured with The Atrium at Cardinal Drive and had a great experience. The memory care unit was larger and we felt that our loved one would feel intimidated by the size of the space. That being said, they were excellent and we would have felt comfortable with our loved one here. We were impressed with them but ultimately chose what we thought would fit my loved ones needs best.

My loved one is a resident at Blenheim-Newport. We have experience with one other facility, but everything is better here at this facility. The food, the staff, the access to nurses, communication with the family are all better here. The overall feel of the facility is better. I would recommend this facility to others, outside of initial sales, which was deceptive at times. I would rate the Sales at a 2, but that seems to be the same everywhere. Get everything in writing.

We chose Adelaide of Newton Centre because of the space, I thought it was exactly what he needed, it was open and spacious. He liked to walk and they have a really nice loop that he was able to do within the space which was really nice. The rooms were all private rooms to which is great. I felt I was making medical diagnosis on my loved one. They do have doctors that come in and the nurses that are there are lovely, but you do have to pay attention since it is not a medical facility. They were very helpful with the hospice transition. Overall I would recommend this facility to others looking.

The staff is extraordinary at every level. They made a difficult transition as kind and gentle as it could be for my father. Communication with the family is excellent. The meals are good quality, just not as good as home. The place is spotlessly clean. I would wholeheartedly recommend Chestnut Park to family and friends.

My loved one is in the special care unit and does not like the food. For activities it is too soon to rate, Staffing issues caused activities to be lacking. They brought someone in for this -which was an improvement. But he's been out for a while. Not sure what's happening. It is very expensive, but the staff are very kind and upbeat. They treat the residents very well and there's no way to put a price tag on that.
