A Place for Mom has scored Commonwealth Senior Living with 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 173 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, Commonwealth Senior Living has 1,206 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.1 out of 5.
If your loved one falls or has reoccurring UTI's do not send them here. The staff in blue are very caring but are understaffed and there is a high turnover. Some of the directors don't follow through and seem to just be there for a paycheck, not for the care of your loved one.

My mother went to this facility when she became significantly debilitated after a hospitalization. She and I are both arms. She required assistance with all ADLs, which we were assured would be provided by the staff and had planned to phase her home caregivers out after a couple of weeks. We ended up keeping them on and extending their hours to ten per day. The aides complained often about the poor care. Against her wishes, my mother was put in bed shortly after 8:00 pm most nights. When staff arrived at 8:00 am she was still in bed most mornings. PRN medications for pain were often not provided when she requested them. There were other problems with medications as well. We did have fantastic results with the PT and OT staff, who helped her regain quite a bit of her mobility. She will be moving to a very nice but less expensive Independent living community with a live-in aide, where we will not have to pay for the assisted living fee and where we can handle her medications.

I sought this facility out as a secure living environment for my mother. My mother is and was a difficult patient. She is struggling with early onset dementia and psychiatric care. After a psychiatric stay at a mental health hospital, she was not welcome back. Exceptional cleanliness and a beautiful facility. The special dietary needs (gluten and nut free) of my mother were able to be be met! However, they were unable to accommodate "a difficult patient" whose medical needs were not only early onset dementia care-- she also has psychiatric issues. Upon discharge from a psychiatric hospital mom was not welcome back there. "We are unable to accommodate her level of care." I needed a safe, secure facility for mom to live in while we navigated her medical and psychiatric needs. Commonwealth did their best, yet were unable to help us.

Very nice, smaller community than others in the area, nice large rooms. All the administrators were very friendly and helpful. The meals were well prepared and tasty!! The only draw back was the healthcare, my father was assessed as a level 5 (highest) which we were promised he'd get extra care which cost more. However, it was no different from level 1 and the nursing staff was terrible!! Inattentive, didn't take extra time for his needs, treated him more like a hassle than a person. Needless to say, my father went into the hospital twice in two weeks and decided he'd rather come home to die than go back.

Overall the experience was not pleasurable for our family. My mother-in-law never liked the place and did not feel safe there, however, there were two family members that did not help the situation and fed her fears and dislikes. I felt American House had potential and we could have possibly worked out the issues but it never happened. I did have concerns about the care and I felt a lot of the issues came from the top down which in any business unless that changes the business will always have issues. Communication was horrible.

We picked this community, because they allowed dogs and were in our price range. But also the renovations looked nice and promising I haven't been impressed. They don't have good communication or follow through. Trasportation was offered but not provided as promised.

I've actually waited a couple of years to write this so that my emotions about the passing of my family member (which was natural) would not interfere with my assessment of The Ballentine. So at this point, I can clearly share how much I regret choosing this place. It began with the small discrepancy between what I was told in our initial visit and how my family member's first day unfolded, followed immediately by a lot of clothing and personal possessions disappearing within 24 hours, and also a second time. There were a lot of other things also, and whenever I tried to address them, the double-talk was so evident. I felt I needed to be present to make sure had what she needed, fortunately, I could be there regularly. I am appreciative however of some of the staff who were really good.

They don't have enough staff right now to take care of the residents. They have one nurse and everyone else is an assistant so they cant make any decisions. The person that runs the location is never there for you to ask the questions that you have and then also with one nurse there is no nurse to answer questions. I would not recommend. Until they fix this problem things will not be good.

We just received a call that mom was found on the floor in her apartment bleeding from her head. My family and I have tried calling back the facility several times, letting the phone ring for 5 minutes straight and NO ONE answered. This is a repeat occurrence but now we're really unhappy. I think there is one person at night currently for an entire assisted living AND memory care facility due to turnover of staff A nurse is on call at night but not on site. Starting to realize this is a mistake. The grounds are beautiful but the caregiver to resident ratio is not enough.

I really do not have much to say about how things are going for my loved one since he made the move into this community. I am very unhappy at the moment and think they could use a lot of improvement in the quality of care they provide the residents. I do not think it is up to standards and they lack in organization on how to run this place.

The facility looks great and depending on care needs could be a great place. If you have memory care problems or require lots of care I would look elsewhere. Management is on their 4th executive director since opening in 2015. All the staff is a revolving door and the "nursing team" are less than professional (attitude and appearance). The care is adequate but not much better. If your loved one is independent it might be a good fit. If you require an engaging and dynamic team this is not your place. You will be very disappointed in the "executive team" and I suggest questioning them often on care plans and activities for your loved one.

My father was only at this community for a short time before I had removed him from the facility for poor quality of care. There where a couple of great caregivers that where good but that is about all of the good thing i have to say about this place. They really dropped the ball on the medical aspect of his care and my family and I where very disappointed in how they handled things. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
