A Place for Mom has scored Benchmark Senior Living with 8.7 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 529 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, Benchmark Senior Living has 2,483 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.3 out of 5.
There was a parking spot with my name and a welcome sign when I entered the building and was warmly greeted by [name removed] at Waltham Crossings. She listened attentively and offered some good suggestions for transitioning and downsizing.I felt she understood how difficult the decision would be for both my mother and myself. The experience and [name removed]'s answers to my questions put me at ease...but my mother's follow up visit is crucial to any move, as is the sale of our house and the ability to finance the relocation for the long-term.

The Village at Kensington in Meriden CT is a wonderful place for my mom. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. It is very clean and has a pleasant atmosphere. My mom enjoyed the delicious meals that were served. They always provided any extra requests happily. The activities were wonderful. So many choices for everyone’s interests. All the residents have pendant or wrist call button. A capable staff member responded very quickly when ever the button was pushed. The button could be pushed for minor requests or more serious issues. They were always pleasant and helpful. Safety of the residents is primary. I can’t say enough good things about this “new home” for my mom. It sounds too good to be true but it really is a wonderful place.

Looking for an assisted living or memory care facility for your loved one(s), then look no further than Bedford Falls in Bedford, NH. My wife and I invested a significant amount of time researching and vetting facilities within 30 miles of our home for my Dad, who we needed to move from Florida to NH. We had some complexities in our situation (but then again, who doesn’t in cases like this) Of all the places we visited, Bedford Falls stood out in every category. Not only did the facility stand out in terms of cleanliness, amenities and design, but the staff really got our attention. Everyone we encountered during the three tours were welcoming and genuinely friendly. We interviewed several folks our age who had parents at Bedford Falls and all gave glowing reviews. The parent company routinely gets high marks from employees as a great place to work, and this was important to us, as the positive company experience translates directly to great resident care. The high level of care offered by Bedford Falls is what sealed the deal. They are staffed by need, not by headcount. My Dad has now been a resident at Bedford Falls for 3 months and we are extremely pleased. I am continuously blown away with the support we receive from [Name removed] and his staff. My Dad’s situation is complex and fluid, and [Name removed] has successfully adjusted on the fly to meet all our needs. Most importantly, my Dad is happy at Bedford Falls. He is a 30 year veteran of the nursing home industry who has very high standard for senior care (translated: he is VERY picky) . He loves the staff and enjoys the food (this is critical!) We are incredibly grateful to [Name removed] and the amazing staff at Bedford Falls who have helped make this difficult situation as smooth and as supportive as possible. They always go above and beyond what I would normally expect. I am very comfortable knowing that my Dad is in the best place receiving the best care possible given his circumstances. We cannot recommend Bedford Falls strongly enough!

I nearly cried when I saw a group of staff at the front door when I brought my Auntie [name removed] to the Arbors in Bedford, NH. We had been asked to be there at 430pm, and this crew was waiting for her! She was so very pleased, as was I, when she noticed the sign, "Welcome [name removed]". I am very pleased with your staff and she seems very happy! Thank you for making my decision to place her a good decision!

This Benchmark is a nice facility off the beaten path in Worcester, which I liked. It was quiet, and comfortable, and very inviting. Again, a Benchmark highlight is that everyone is very friendly, happy, and social, from staff to residents. I would recommend this facility, and this was second on my list to the Benchmark Shrewsbury Crossing.

I think this senior living facility is awesome, and so hope to be able to get my mom in here in the near future. Upon arrival, it is very welcoming, and the staff and residents are all so happy. They really took the time to review my mother's needs, and guided me to the whole process. In the end, it is at the top of our list for my mother.

Went to review the memory care unit and were impressed by the staff who have been there a long while. Care is well integrated and flexible. Has a nice enclosed garden. Not the loveliest location but with memory care the exterior is less important.

Evolve is a warm friendly community. Bright, immaculate, updated and welcoming. I liked the circular structure of the building that surrounded a courtyard. In the courtyard were raised gardens, beautiful sculpture and big weather proof wicker seating. French doors opened to this courtyard. Why do I describe this. Residents freely can go in and out of the building from all sides. Some residents are not tucked away in their own "secure" neighborhood, meaning locked in. At 92, my mother with dementia, Alzheimer type, is still highly physically functional. She would know she is locked away from the rest of the community. This is why Evolve's architecture impressed me. The Incoming residents can bring their own furniture. More important the residents no matter their depth of journey were interacting with the staff, who smiled to say hello to me. Transitioning my mother into a memory care community is likely the hardest journey for me. As I walked through the building I noticed family members coming and going and this was near to lunch-time. I told they come to have lunch with a resident. I felt a sense of peace in this place. Evolve in a nutshell, is like walking into a home not an institution.

Although I’ve since ruled out this facility based on my current needs I may consider it again when my health and immediate concerns merit an update. Thank You for your effort.

My husband was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s disease when he was 54 years old. When his symptoms became worse and the disease progressed to the middle stages, I struggled with attending to his needs. Thankfully, after my husband was sent to Atrium at Faxon Woods I was able to relieve my stress as the staff there were very professional and supportive. They helped my husband transition smoothly into his new living space, which was spacious and designed specifically for patients in need of memory care. They also provided assistance in the form of onsite doctors, dental and hair salon services, and a variety of healthy meals during my husband’s time at Atrium. I am thankful that he received a great deal of attention and care there.
