It's really a lovely place. They have a huge range of care services. The activities are good, and they try hard to appeal to a broad range of people. They have Bingo and lectures. The value for the money is good. We picked this community, because the broad range of activities, and when I walked in, I felt I could see my loved one there. Overall, we are very happy.

For the duration of our loved ones stay and even during her final days the staff members were absolutely phenomenal. They had comfort care during her final days and we came to stay with her 24/7 and the staff came in every hour on the hour to make sure we had food to eat and drinks and anything else we needed. We would absolutely recommend Benchmark Senior Living to other families.

This is a great place. They are very friendly here with a very clean, open, and lighter atmosphere compared to other communities in the area. The staff communication with the family has been great. There is a standard menu or a daily special menu that changes that the residents can choose from. There are three meals a day served to the residents as well. Bingo, bowling, movies, arts and crafts, field trips, religious services, and more are some of the activities for the residents to choose from.

The Benchmark Senior Living community really goes above and beyond, we had no problems whatsoever during the duration of our loved ones stay. The staff members were fantastic and anytime we had questions or concerns they always got back to us with a timely response. They really were top notch and we absolutely loved them. One thing we really liked to see is on a day we came to visit they had transportation come in and take the memory care residents out for a day for a change of scenery.

My Mom lived at the Atrium at Drum Hill for more than five years. She passed away last October. She had Alzheimer’s and or vascular dementia that progressed from relatively mild to pretty debilitating during those five years. During all that time the staff at the Atrium treated her with respect and dignity for which she and I were always grateful. At the same time my Mom was at the Atrium I was also caring for my wife who has Alzheimer’s. Her condition has also progressed during those five years the Atrium was helping me with my Mom. I had my wife in a day care program and after I would drop her off, I’d visit with my Mom. I’d watch how the staff would care for the residents and how they handled difficult situations. I was grateful for the examples and tips I learned from them and I did my best to put in to practice at home with my Wife. I was quite lucky in that respect. While the illness progressed in my Mom, it also progressed in my wife.

Academy Point at Mystic gives our family that peace of mind that our loved one is being taken care of. The staff are extremely friendly and always engaging with the residents - it really gives off that tight knit community. They take care of everybody - if someone does not show up for meal time they still send a staff member to go check on them. Our loved one does not participate in the activities but we do see a ton of different things going on. They are extremely efficient with their transportation service, they have been outstanding and have never let us down. They will take them to other appointments as well as day trips to different restaurant's. It is expensive but you do get a lot for your money and we would 100% recommend this community to other families.

We looked at a number of places for our mother when we felt she was no longer safe living on her own. The senior staff at Evans Park truly stood out as being helpful and genuinely caring. When we toured the facility with and without our mother the staff seemed to know all the residents and to have real relationships with many of them. The residents we met seemed very happy and were welcoming of our mother. The staff was entirely focused on what was best for our mother. Though we ultimately selected a place that was practically next door to my brother's house, my brother, sister and I were enormously impressed by all our interactions with staff at Evans Park, which is why I have gone to the extra effort of writing a review. We would have been very happy to have had our mother there if it weren't quite so far away.
