The community makes a lot of effort to help. It is clean. Most of the staff is respectful. The communication is the biggest issue with the staff to the family and the intercommunication with the staff. There has been some turnover of administration staff. The community didn't communicate with the family what all we would need to bring in for our loved one. There is a new activities calendar that has been provided to the family recently. The staff has been doing a good job at trying to assist my loved one in getting used to the community.

It has been a good experience. Mom has only been there a couple of months, and she still wants to go home - although I think that would happen anywhere she was. But it has been good for her and good for us. I like the staff. They're friendly and very helpful. Anything you need done, they do it. They really try to get the residents involved in activities as best they can. They had a sing-along the other day that I sat in on, and it was fun. I have not been able to try the food yet because of Covid, but they offered me some of the chocolate cake the other day, and it was delicious.

I toured this community and really liked the setup, although it was a little dated. It had a good feeling and seemed nice. I especially liked that they protected the memory care residents by keeping their unit separate. The rooms did not seem specifically designed for handicapped individuals and just not ideal for a wheel chair - likely due to it being dated. I had no dire complaints regarding this community, it just did not fit my loved ones needs.

I loved everything about Putnam Farm except for the price. The facility itself is gorgeous and the director we spoke with was wonderful. It is very expensive though, it is not one set price, everything is an add on charge.

My loved one absolutely loves it here. It's very clean. The only issues have been with the night crew and billing. The night crew is not as medially trained, and they're not very kind. The day crew and kitchen crew have all been awesome though. Billing is not exactly as they said it would be. She was expecting several thousand less than what her bill has been. But they're very good about answering any questions and responding to concerns. The food is very good, and I like that she always has something available to eat, any time of the day. They keep the residents busy with activities, and she talks to me all the time about all they have going on. They have both indoor and outdoor activities.

Also this community is set up in a very nice way for those who have memory loss issues.

Our tour at Benchmark Robbins Brook was very good. I thought it would have been an excellent place. They were just a little to far away for us. And the only reason I gave four stars was because we didn't bring our loved one, so we didn't get an opportunity to see how they would interact with her.
