Senior Living Residences, LLC

I thought it was pretty nice. Actually I would have thought possibly this one or one other place might be better suited for my mom. She was leaning towards another one because it was closer to her home. The people were very friendly.

Armbrook Village just opened about two months ago, so like any new business the staff to resident ratio hasn't been figured out yet. But as they get more residents they plan on hiring more employees. They could use a second person for planning acitivies now, but in three months they should be better. There is a lot of stuff to do outside, physical activites residents can participate in, a putting green, bocce courts, raised garden beds. It's not just sitting around playing cards activities, like where my mom previousily was. She loves her apartment, it is the perfect size for her. The food is fantastic. I have not met one employee I didn't like. She really, really likes it here. We are very, very happy, and just hope that they hirer more staff for activities and care services sooner rather than later.

Very nice with many financial options

Sounds promising.

Completed a tour and the facility was nice. Was second on the list.

Visited with parents. No "hidden fees".

Beautiful community, didn't feel like home though. There were not a lot of grounds to enjoy.

We toured at Cornerstone at Milford, and though that the community was very nice. We certainly liked the very friendly staff there, but thought that the community was too far way and too large for my loved one.

This community was nice but in comparison to others we had seen I didn't care for this one as much. They are not a securely locked community so my husband could have gotten out and wandered. The community was clean and well maintained. The staff was nice and friendly and informative.

The Arbors is a beautiful building and very appealing aesthetically.They have done a wonderful job maintaining it. The most important part is the care of course. I would say they need more staff and to be more attentive to patients needs. They have some inconsistency in staffing. They offer activities and are encouraging her to get involved. The food is very good also. Overall things are okay but I am not very impressed with the Leadership. I don't feel their hiring and training processes are as solid as they could be. They have recently had turnover and hope things improve. I'm not sure what they are paying their employees but a more competitive pay may bring in better talent as well. I want to be fair in my review and things are not horrible but some things could improve.

As with anything, communication is so important. My family's experience to date has been that communication between staff and family and even staff themselves has been inconsistent and on more than one occasion poor. We are working with the facility and staff to improve communication keeping in mind what's best for our loved one.

My mother is doing the best that she can on making the adjustment into this community. the staff are very friendly and have been attentive to my loved ones needs. She said there could be a little improvement on the food they serve. It is a mediatrian diet so its a little different then what she is used to with the different spices and flavors.

My mom is happy there but every year the price goes up. It's hard to change your parent once they get accustomed to a place and I think they know that. There has been quite a turnover in staff recently.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. This seemed like a nice place overall, but I did not like the fact that residents using medicaid waivers were limited to shared rooms.

Methuen Village was very helpful when we were looking for respite care options. The staff were very friendly, definitely the nicest people we talked to in our search. It's a very nice looking and clean community, and they're able to provide the sort of care we were looking for. The community is a bit less active than she'd like, but still very nice.

I think this may not be the best place for him, it comes down to cost and there aren't a lot of other different options for him. It's near transportation, Lower Mills I think is a fine area, I just think the age population is not right for him, they're much older than he is so I don't know if there's any place where he'll feel comfortable. He does try, they're very friendly and he has connected with some. I think they're caring people there, but he needs help they can't give him. The location is good, it's next door to a place he worked out in every morning, it's right around the corner so that was good for him. I think the biggest thing is fitting in with the other residents. There was some question about whether Standish was following through on the activities they said they were going to do, but I don't live there so I don't know.

It was good; however, the food. Everytihng was pasta, so being a diabetic, having high blood pressure, they had pasta for every single thing and they didn't havew any choices like weight watchers or low sodium or something like that. For whatever reason, it seems to have a major turnover in staff, they switched management and there was a lot of turnover. It didn't really affect her care, but it was upsetting to her not to have the same people taking care of her.

1. I cannot afford any of these places. Even w long term care insurance because you are charged for the services. 2. It was welcoming, consistently by the residents Staff was more welcoming before you signed on. Then they moved on to new potential customers. 3. Meal plans and food was pretty negative. Not much catering to dietary needs like sweet and gluten, not enough on alternate menu No flexibility in cost if you eat only one meal a day. Also breakfast too early. Lunch is late and dinner too early 4. The resident committee was a great group of people with a lifetime of experience and they were pretty much ignored. I took notes for their meetings. Lots of dining issues and outdoor parking and lighting concerns. 5. It was difficult to get in to talk to [Name Removed]. I never did. She called and did not seem to know what I wanted in spite of writing to her. She eventually replied to my emails. 6. I am not ready for this type of living entertainment etc. Not my thing.

They don't give a lot of food. Sometimes, they run out of food, Depending on where you sit, a lot of time, they run out of Desert. Depending on where you sit. .

Overall, it was a good experience. She was there for 11 months. I live out of state, so only visited a handful of times. Whenever I did, there was never any toilet paper in her bathroom. A friend who visited said the bathroom was not clean. When she was discharged, she was taken to the hospital due to aggressive behavior and they told the hospital she was not allowed to return. This ultimately left her "homeless" until she was accepted to another facility. So overall, the place was fine, but I do not like how it ended. Also, many items were missing from her room, including a brand new pair of shoes, personal items, pictures, etc. We never got these items back.
