The aids the environment the location and the hospice staff I would rate a 5. Not as pleased with some other factors, 30 day assessment to determine continued level of care has not yet been done and it's over 60 days, family has some questions about medication and we're not aware of all prescribed medications. Family following up on these and hope to have them addressed successfully.

It takes a good month for staff to know your loved ones needs and you need to communicate your concerns with the ones that signed you on and the higher up, otherwise they don't know what's going on. The staff is wonderful and very happy to please. They treat the Residents like family and make me feel like family. I would recommend The Arbors of Bedford and I thank A Place For Mom for their recommendation

My mother went into Waltham Crossings on [date removed]. She had a difficult beginning which I knew she would. She was a big escape risk. Waltham Crossings has a solid plan in place to make sure the Memory care residents do not get out. Once my mother adjusted, she spent most of her days walking all around the memory care floor. She has not been in that good shape since she was 70 years old. The nurses are excellent in the Memory Care unit. They get to know every patient The CNA's are great and very patient and smiling to the residents I am so glad I chose Waltham Crossings

The reason I gave it a 5 was because of what they were able to offer that matched what they SAID they would give. The staff is very enthusiastic. Not only what they do in morning activities and afternoon activities by engaging each person individually but they keep me informed of changes as they incorporated my mom and sister into their community.

When my friend was finishing a stint in medical rehab, she would not be able to go back to live alone in her home. Two staff members of Norwood Benchmark came to speak with her at her rehab facility. It was clear from the warmth of the conversation that the key feature at Benchmark is the care and concern for their residents. It clearly and tangibly informs all the decisions they make.

The facility itself is dated. However the staff is lovely and seem to genuinely care about it residents. The food was somewhat sold as 5 star but it is not. It's however decent. I am overall very happy so far with the care mom is getting. I will always appreciate "A place for moms' guidance while I was looking.

Amazing place. It is clear that the staff's primary concerns are the residents' well being, safety, and enjoyment of their life at Meadow Ridge. All facilities are generous, lovely, and well maintained. Communication is not only facilitated, it is frequent and comprehensive. The residents go out of their way to welcome new residents and help them settle in.

My brother in law who is 91 has been a resident in the Assisted Living section of the facility for almost 2 months. He has settled right into his surroundings wonderfully. The staff has been wonderful and kind. He goes regularly to the dining room and compliments their cuisine . Although he regularly has peanut butter sandwiches for lunch he keeps to his routine .There is a walking trail which goes right around the facility. It is all paved and marked with plenty of benches if he gets tired. 4 times around us a mile which he is aiming for. Walking is a big part of his day so we are glad he can continue safely.
