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.
All I can say is how great everything has been in the two weeks that I moved my mother in law to Forge Hill. She's been a new person. I haven't seen her this happy in a long time.

My husband has been there for about a month. I like it. I love the set up of it. He was in assisted living at one point for 3 years. The staff is so friendly and caring. That's what I get out of it. The residents are encouraged not to be in their rooms. I would recommend The Atrium at Faxon Woods to anyone because it has been a great experience. Everything has been excellent. It's a nice community with nice people.

I LOVE the Harbor memory care unit at Forge Hill. The single most important reason is the kindness of the front line staff to my elderly mother-in-law. They are always friendly, cheerful, & helpful. At first I thought their good nature was just for show. But they are so consistently that way that this has to be for real. The administrative staff of the Harbor unit and of the larger assisted living unit are also very open, friendly & helpful. They invite our perspective & make efforts to satisfy our concerns. The second reason I love Forge Hill is the decor and the floor plan. When we first walk in, the lobby is bright & airy. My mother-in-law's room is small but lovely. The Harbor unit itself is bright with many windows, cheerful and very lovely to look at. There are multiple open spaces off a common hallway for different functions for the residents. The common hallway and relatively small size of the unit (about 22 residents?) make it easier for those with memory problems to learn their way around. At the end of the common hallway is an enclosed patio where the residents can safely enjoy being outside in the good weather. The activities director is also a sweetheart. She's friendly, with boundless energy. She provides meaningful activities for the residents morning & afternoon, including occasional trips into the community. It is a small community, and all the staff know everybody. It's very personable. I looked at a number of other places, & this is by far the best. Do I sound too enthusiastic? No - no one is paying me for this recommendation. It's all very sincere. I can't wait until I can move into the assisted living side!

I just did a quick tour here as I had already been to another Benchmark facility earlier. It seemed to be very similar to the other. Clean grounds and facility, courteous, attentive staff with lots of activities. The memory care unit was clean and well kept with spacious apartments. The price is much better than that of a nursing home.

From the original contact to move-in day the staff at RC is always courteous, helpful, personable which is so critical when you are going thru the changes that come with moving to a very new and different lifestyle.... a really good one. First impressions count and making them exceptional is so very important. RC does a great job recognizing and acting accordingly. I am so happy that my loved one has people her own age around to share her days vs being alone.
