My family member is very happy with the activities and with the care she's getting at The Village. The facility itself is excellent. They could just improve on the food (she would like to see better quality).

I toured this facility and it was nice. It's newer and more expensive than some of the other places in the area. Everyone was friendly. They seemed to offer a good variety of activities. They really took their time with us during the tour, I didn't feel rushed at all.

We connected with admissions at the get go. I really liked how they handled our situation. The staff worked extremely hard to take care of my husband. Unfortunately my husband refused most of the care and that's why we had to move him. I would totally recommend Benchmark in Woburn. They were really helpful when my husband got stuck in the hospital.

Our tour with MiddleBrook Farms at Trumball went very well. The tour guide was on time and did a great job of showing us all around and explaining everything thoroughly. The location was the only issue, they needed to move closer to my brother who does not travel and he lives in another state and can check on them more. Other than that, I don't think the tour could have gone any better!

The staff is wonderful, always checking in on my mom and seeing how she is doing. Tries to get her to go to the activities, but my mom can't sit too long. But they do Bingo and have singers come in which she does seem to like. She likes some of the food and some she doesn't. The housekeeping of her room we had a few issues. The housekeeper was sick so she wasn't cleaning the bathroom. There were stains around the toilet and she wasn't vacuuming. We did get that fixed after about 3-4 weeks of complaining. I go twice a week to help my mom shower. The housekeeper broke a part in the shower and it took 3 weeks for them to fix it. It seems like the manager of the maintenance department likes to talk more than work. But overall we like it and it has taken my mom a little longer to adjust.

The tour we had with Crescent Point at Niantic was great, we liked this facility very much. It was too large for my loved one whose dementia was causing her to deteriorate, so we wanted something smaller. It was also very expensive. This would have been our second choice if a room did not open at a smaller facility, from everything we saw the place looked great.

My loved one loves the food, is very happy, and loves the activities. They were good, with getting my loved one oriented into their new space, and getting them adjusted. They could do better with communicating/explaining to the family about what they're expectations. I'm glad I called A Place for Mom, it was much easier to get in contact with places, and sort things out. It made things much easier to coordinate.

I cannot say enough good about them, they would get more than 5 if I could. I cannot believe the friendliness not only of the staff but the other residents. They have been so patient and make her feel very welcome. Everybody has been so gracious and sweet. If she has any complaints, this makes up for it. It is also a very spacious facility, especially compared to others I have been to. I would recommend them to others looking.
