Commonwealth Senior Living

We chose Commonwealth Senior Living because I liked that this facility was smaller and everybody seemed friendly when we came in. She went with a private room and it was perfect for her needs. [name removed], the lady that greets you when you walk in is wonderful and that sets the tone for the whole facility. We had some really great nurses and everyday staff. My moms complaint on the food was that they put pepper on everything, but I talked to the chef and he was great at accommodating her needs. I would recommend them to others looking.

Our family has been able to have an in person tour, and there was not too many restrictions or guidelines we had to follow. The tour was really nice.

Great service with attention to

The staff are very friendly, and it's a very supportive community. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and economical. The community is easily accessible to Salisbury and the surrounding areas.

I was impressed with Commonwealth during my visit. Although not as impressive from the outside as some other places I’ve visited, the inside was very nice. My tour guide knew everyone by name and seemed genuinely caring. Breakfast and dinner is included six days a week and brunch on Sunday for independent living. The apartments were very nice. Lots of closet space and outlets. It is smaller than some places which makes it very easy to get around the facility. Overall I was very happy with my visit.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t really like at Commonwealth. But they didn’t really get back to me after our tour, so I didn't spend a lot of time looking into them. The sales rep at a different community was amazing and made things really easy, so that other community is where we ended up.

We toured Commonwealth and really liked it. Everyone seemed to be very nice and it was a brand new facility. It had everything we needed but the other Commonwealth was closer to our house so we went with that one.

So far so good. My loved one is still waiting on the room that she wants that has a kitchenette in it. I would just tell others to ask a lot of questions up front, the little things you don't normally think about like the internet, who will help during move in, etc. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

The Saybrook was a very nice place, all one level, and a beautiful facility. We came very close to moving in. They came to our home to do the assessment, but they said they were just not ready for him to move in. I'm not sure exactly why, although it could have been related to the pandemic. We needed more immediate placement, so we ended up selecting a different place.

There was an extreme lack of communication from the nurses and aides who were actually assisting my loved one. The administrative folks were very responsive. But as far as getting blood pressure readings, making sure medications were being administered, that bed linens were clean, and that my loved one had basic supplies, there was no communication from the people who were taking care of her. Which I didn't like at all. This very well could have been because of Covid. But because of Covid, I think communication should have been even better, as opposed to what I experienced. I understand that had I been able to go inside more and see for myself, my questions would have been easily answered. As it was, it was difficult to ask over the phone and then not get a call back. When we moved my loved one in and out, it was very nicely kept, and it didn't smell. I can't complain about any of that. She told me that the food was great. She was a dessert fan, so desserts evidently were really good. And they often had fresh fruit, which she enjoyed.

The community has easy accessibility, communication is good when it comes to callbacks but they did have some issues with providing mail to us. The community is a great value. I would recommend this community to others.

The community is clean and friendly. They have a bus service and washers and dryiers. The communication is good between the staff and the family and they keep us well informed. I would recommend this community to others

Liked the facility and felt that it is possible they can meet my Father-in-Law’s needs based on the tour and information we received on Saturday. However, need to speak with [name removed],POC, as he was unavailable during our tour but is contacting me Monday to obtain information I need and to answer questions.

Nice physical plant that is apparently well taken care of. The lounge and dinning are large and cozy! [name removed] took me on a brief tour. The private rooms are spacious and handicapped friendly as they have a creative Activity Director. On the down side, they have an up front fee of $2500 they claim is used to refits the room before occupancy. Cost is moderate. No in-house physician is a bummer! But overall, this is a possible!

I have lived here at Addington Place at East Paris for over a year now. I reside in building five, and it is part of the assisted living setting on campus. It's comfortable. The staff is good. My room is comfortable.

I chose Addington Place of Grand Rapids because it just felt homey and it seemed like it would be a good fit for my mother, it is a smaller community. The room sizes here were decent compared to others we saw. I ate here a couple of times and I was not impressed, the food does not seem to be fresh. I thought it was perfect for my mom and the people were very nice and helpful. I would recommend.

A welcome place to stay. The staff is concerned about us as residents. The activity director is wonderful.

This place was very nice and clean. Did like the idea of independent Living section. Didn’t like the long hallways or the small steps up/down in several areas as we were walking. Would hate for someone moms age to forget they are there and fall. Director was very pleasant also.

I would tell my friends that it was good for my loved one when he lived there. When I had concerns I couldn't get a hold of the administrators to voice my these concerns. It took almost a week to get a hold of her. The reason for my concern was that the staff was supposed to be making his bed, and it wasn't being done. The room my loved one had, it was a two bedroom with a kitchenette. The room wasn't very handicapped accessible. The sink was hard for my loved one to roll under the bathroom sink and, it was ok for showering for my loved one. They did have handlebars in the bathroom for assistance. The staff that did the cleaning was great.

There are some staff that are wonderful and some that are horrible. This community is one of the better in the area. The options for rooms are good, the prices for options vary. I really like the food at this community.
