A Place for Mom has scored Benchmark Senior Living with 8.7 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 528 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, Benchmark Senior Living has 2,440 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.3 out of 5.
My mother has been at Sanctuary for almost 2 years. The last 6 months have brought wonderful changes to the community. The focus is, and continues to be, improvement in all areas. A new Food Director and a new Activities Manager, to mention a few, are bringing new and wonderful ideas to the home. My mother is extremely well cared for, and treated so lovingly, by everyone from the caregivers to the nurses to the administrative staff. My father, who visits daily, is made to feel very welcome, like a family member. The changes over the last 6 months under the leadership of the new Director have been very positive. I would confidently recommend Sanctuary Care to anyone who is in the process of transitioning their loved one to a community for people living with Alzheimer's.

I can not say enough good things about this community, this place is a top of the line facility. The memory care unit they have there is excellent. The staff are constantly keeping the residents busy and involved in many different activities throughout the day. My mother also was very welcomed by all of the residents and had made a couple close girlfriends. The chef does an amazing job with the meals they serve and they even offered my family to come enjoy the dinning experience with my mother at no cost.

Clean, lovely accommodations. View to river was spectacular. The daily menu choices were great. I was very pleased with the "ageing in place" concept which would only cause one move for my parent.

My Parents moved to Robbins Brook two years ago and loved it immediately. The surroundings are classy yet comfortable, and the staff is friendly helpful and engaging. After my mother passed away, they were right there for our family in every way needed and even provided further attention for my father who required a higher level of care. He has continued at Robbins Brook on his own and enjoys the new friends he forged while there. I highly recommend Robbins Brook at Acton completely and without hesitation.

I would definitely recommend this community to anyone because it is an amazing place to live in. My loved one's mood has completely changed since she made the move here. The complex is brand new. The entrance to the building is a huge room with a fireplace and has a hotel feel to it. The staff is wonderful, they are very polite and encouraging. They assign a staff member to be the "angel" and her role is to encourage the residents to join in as many activities as possible. [Removed], the head of activities is great. She organizes anything from games to movie nights. The meals are top restaurant quality. The tables in the dining are set very nicely, and the menus have a variety of options. The room she is in is comfortable, just what she needs!

My Mom moved into the Memory Care area two months ago. I was impressed by the courtesies extended to us immediately. My Mom's her own woman, knows her likes and dislikes and communicates those very well. Despite her initial hesitancy about moving into a new community, she has settled in and has made a number of friends there. The staff has been quite helpful, calling whenever any question arises or if they feel I might like to know something. I appreciate the attentiveness and care that is shown by the care staff as well as the back office folks.

It is going very well for my mom and she is well taken care of. The staff are professional and friendly. The community is very, very clean. They let her eat the same meal everyday. The best part is the activities like the music get together, support group, physical therapy and many more. She was recently moved for her safety and to maker sure it is easier for her to find her room. Her apartment is simple and small, just enough for her and her pet. They allow small animals here.

My mom is home now but it was fabulous when she was at the community. They worked really hard with her and now she is able to use her walker and make her own meals. I think the level of care they offer was phenomenal, to be in your own apartment with the level of care. There were only 2 places that could provide the care. It saved her lots of money from being in a skilled nursing. I just worked out perfectly for us.

This was a good tour. When I walked in they were having a party and it looked like the resident were having fun. I thought this would have been too much for my dad. It is a bigger community with a confusing set up for my dad. This was not going to be a good fit for us. I did not see anything bad on my tour.
