Sonida Senior Living

I was very impressed with the friendly staff, the clean building, and the home-like feeling.

The room looks great! My parents are settling in and they are very happy.

I've been here at The Waterford at Fitchburg for 12 years. I'm a clergy, so I've been in and out of a number of these places before I retired, Since I've been living here I've looked at several others just for comparison and I'm perfectly happy here. My relationship with the staff and residents is something I really appreciate, its like a big family.

We recommend The Waterford at Fitchburg for creating a home you can be pleased with. The apartments can be fine tuned to your preferences and contain complete kitchens, patio, fireplaces and laundry. Everyone is friendly and caring . Waterford staff learns your name and are always ready to assist if any need arises. Take a tour. You won't be disappointed. And if you decide to stay tell them [name removed] and [name removed] sent you!

Thanks to A Place for Mom for helping my sister and me find The Waterford at Fitchburg. Our large 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment fits our needs perfectly and we are enjoying the many varied activities that are available to us every day. We like the many options we have for eating some or all of our meals in the community Bistro or doing our own cooking. Everyone on the staff is super helpful and all the residents friendly. The Waterford provides a van that takes us to medical appointments, shopping, etc. We also appreciate the physical therapy available, if needed, from rehab services located in the building. The independent/assisted living community at The Waterford works well for us.

This is a very nice place to be. If you are looking for a place for your loved one or to stay for myself, this would be the best community. The staff have been good to work with if I have had any questions or concerns. The meals are varied, and served very nicely. There is one set meal; however, you are able to order something else if you don't care for the set meal. Some of the activities available include exercise classes, bowling, card games, and more for the residents to choose from. The apartment, weekly housekeeping, utilities, transportation, and all the meals are included in the monthly rate. I feel very safe in the community.

The staff is very caring, and they try to meet all of the needs of the residents. They're very friendly and like to interact with the residents. I'm very pleased wit the facility. They have a lot of outdoor and common areas with beautiful landscaping and plants. And it's very peaceful and relaxing to sit outside with other residents. The activities are good overall, but I think could use maybe a few more to participate in.

Anthology of Anderson Exceeded my expectations in Every way [name removed] and all of the staff I was introduced to at my first site inspection present this facility in a first class manor. Once my 92 year old Mother took the tour she beamed and transformed from reluctant to move "to WOW what a fabulous facility". Transition to assisted living is not easy, However Anthology has perfected a cluster for 100 residents to enjoy, share, and call this exceptional facility their home. Anthology listens and cares.

The Woodlands is very close to where we live and I really feel like this is where he is supposed to be, it has all worked out very well. The Woodlands staff and hospice worked hard to get him out of his previous facility. I cannot say enough about how hard the staff worked to get him here, they really went above and beyond. My loved one is in memory care, his neighborhood has a maximum of 12 residents and there are always a nurse and aid there. They are very attentive and if you ask for something it is always done in a timely manner. My loved one requires a lot of care and they are really on the ball. In the short time that he has been here, they have built such a good relationship with him. I would absolutely recommend them to others who are looking.

All of the staff and residents are helpful, friendly and welcoming to everyone. I appreciate all of the various amenities that the community offers its residents such as the bistro, theatre, hair salon, therapy department, med cart service, social activities, transportation, exercise classes, etc. The facility is close to stores, restaurants, churches, etc. making it an ideal location. The Waterford has been an enjoyable place for me to live after selling my home.

I love my apartment, the open floor plan that I have; it's just like the home I came from. I have a large patio door and balcony to enjoy that lets in lots of natural light.

They were the first ones that we looked at and we were sold immediately by the cleanliness of the facility and the friendliness of staff and residents, mother just loved it. The facility is pretty new and very well maintained. The caring-ness of the staff and the cleanliness of the residents is something that really sticks out to us. Everyone of the residents here are very well dressed and the staff makes sure everyone has their stuff together. Even the people on the memory care side that comes over from time to time to do happy hours look great which shows just how attentive the staff are. Their philosophy is we are here to work for you and we really like that approach. They have monthly meetings with the residents where they get together with the chef and activities director and go over their likes and dislikes and the staff truly listen and take that feedback and apply it. They have a lot of activities provided, my mother loves to play bingo, they have therapy dogs that come in once a week, they even had Shetland ponies in the courtyard and the residents could feed them carrots and pet them. Every Thursday at 4 they do happy hours and they bring in entertainment, they offer one glass of wine or beer if they want it. They also celebrate residents birthdays, have holidays parties, etc. and are just very creative with what they do. Their covid policy is great, they do test the residents and if someone comes back positive, they have to quarantine for 10 days but they have one specific caregiver for those 10 days so there is no cross-contamination. They do not shut down the facility so I am still able to go in and visit my mother as long as she is not the one who has it. Visitors do have to wear masks, but the residents do not. Since she has moved in there has not been one positive covid case so clearly what they are doing is working well. We have been so impressed with Benton House of Oviedo and would highly recommend them to others looking, they have been a God send to our family.

I think it's wonderful here.

overall my stay here has been good. staff is stressed due to being overworked. but staff does well caring for everyone.

I'm happy here. the food is good.

We chose Benton House because the facility is new, clean and in good shape. It was also only about 50% full and my mom needed a place that was going to be more quiet with not as much going on. The room sizes are decent, she has a private room. I would tell others that they do not take Medicaid funding. They do have some really good activities, I wish they had more exercise classes or walking groups. Overall I would recommend them to others looking.

Mom lived at Vintage Gardens Assisted Living facility for about 2 years. Her experience was very positive and found a caring staff who were willing to "go the extra mile" for the residents. After a couple of rehabilitation stints at local care centers, mom mentioned several times that she would sure be glad to get home. The amenities--food, laundry service, activities, maintenance, transportation--are first class and dependable. The medical staff was available to meet her needs and were willing to make calls to her primary care physician when needed. VG staff members were always ready with a friendly greeting at the front door. Also, the residents made mom feel like part of a family right from the beginning.

We are delighted with the staff and we have began to know them. Anytime we say anything things go well and we have not had any issues. The food is a little less than I had hoped for, I'm sure that it is filling but it is not what I expected it to be like for my loved one. They have activities like bingo, ball tossing, work outs, field trips and more for the residents to do to have a good time in the community. They also have entertainment that comes in and more for the residents.

From the moment our family began the process to move our parents to Willow Grove, we have experienced nothing but positivity and sincere care! The staff is helpful and kind, the administration is resourceful and quick to respond, the rooms are clean and spacious, the food is wonderful….I truly can’t say enough about this place! I highly recommend Willow Grove if you are searching for assisted living for your loved ones!

Our parents have lived at this facility for just a short period of time however we are very pleased with the staff, the facility, the food and the care that they are receiving! We would recommend this facility to anyone needing a safe place for their family.
