We have been very happy with our choice of Colonial Courtyard!

This was a very difficult transition for our father. The staff encouraged and reassured us that everything would work out. We felt that they really cared about our father and about his family. They have answered all our questions in a timely manner. My husbands mother spent 3 years at Colonial and received excellent care. There was no question about having my father at Colonial Courtyard.. I highly recommend that you consider this facility for the care of your loved ones.

Colonial Courtyard At Bedford review

From my mother (who supplied the ratings) - Appreciated they accepted Walt with all his issues such as blindness. The staff will listen to any problems and work to correct them. I wish more time was spent explaining meds and special rules in Memory Care. The experience is gratifying and challenging. The staff could be more interested in follow up visits.

Colonial Courtyard of Bedford

We are very pleased with the care given our Mother at Colonial Courtyard of Bedford. Her room is well kept, spacey, and comfortable. The in house availability of doctors and therapy is very convenient. Issues are dealt with promptly. Their activities are over the top, making residents participants not just observers. They provide quality of life to residents by making them participants in life. Such a wonderful atmosphere! Best facility around, and I recommend them highly!

Excellent experience at CCB

My grandmother had stayed at Colonial Courtyard at Bedford off and on over the 6 years we’d cared for her at home. Colonial Courtyard offered us “respite” stays in order for us to go on vacations or have some time away. I’ve seen how much this community has grown in the more recent years - we had absolutely no complaints or concerns during these respite stays, however, I wanted to add that the Activities now appear to be top notch and Wellness seems to have grown vastly. The team members and residents appear beyond happy. It’s also great seeing some of the same team members that cared for my grandmother in the past still working there. Keep it up Colonial Courtyard!!! I’d highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for placement for their loved one!

My grandmother was cared for through end of life.

My grandmother moved into Colonial Courtyard in 2010. She lived there for 9 years and was very happy. The care she received from the care aides, LPN's, and dining staff was not just above standard but filled with empathy. Their understanding and care provided my family with great peace of mind, knowing that someone was there to ensure she was okay 24/7. When the time came for Hospice care, the staff's empathy and understanding of her needs ensured her comfort until the very end. I would recommend Colonial to anyone looking for their loved one to be safe and find their purpose again.

HONEST REVIEW

As a therapist who visits many senior care homes I notice a lot of things. During my first visit to Colonial Courtyard I noticed that the residents receive excellent care. This place feels like a second home for them. It has a great schedule of activities that allows them to participate in community events as well as many fun things to do in-house. The nursing staff is friendly and skilled providing individual care to each resident. As you enter this facility you can see that the staff seems very happy and valued. The decorations are very lovely and always full of holiday spirit. It is tidy and kept in great condition. "I would gladly choose this place for my loved one for any reason"

Homey with wonderful, caring staff

Mom started in the general population a few years ago and moved into the Memory Care unit at CCB in 2024. It is such a comfortable home-like environment. The staff are extremely patient, caring, and friendly. Residents can participate in a variety of activities that encourage fun and laughter. It is such a relief to know that mom is safe and well cared for. I realize that this sounds like a pretty generic review, but I just hope that when I find myself in need of assistance that I can find a place like this!

So very pleased!

My father has been a resident at Colonial Courtyard in Bedford for over a year. I have been very pleased with the care he receives. I live out of state, but am able to visit for four or five days each month. Daddy is always well cared for, communication with staff is easy, activities and trips are abundant and my mind is greatly eased that he is well looked after and enjoying social interaction. He enjoys the staff and is content with the facility. He has a much better quality of life than he would at his home on his own. His primary care physician is the medical director for the facility which is a definite plus. Basic medical testing is done in house (blood draws, taking urine samples, etc) and some physical therapy can be handled in house.

A beautiful community

I was in to tour for information about my next step when I need to leave my home. The building was beautiful, the team was very friendly, this will be the place I want to go to when I have to leave my home. The staff were so caring and the community dog was so nice.

I love living here!

I am a current resident and have been here for around 4 months and I love living here. I was hesitant on moving in at first that people would not like me or I might not fit in but I have made so many new friends, I have gone on trips to places I have never been and I have also tried so many new foods that I didn’t know existed.

A life preserver

In looking to get my grandmother placed into assisted living, I was given information regarding Colonial Courtyard. In speaking with the Community Leasing Director, I felt at peace and believed this was the best place for my grandmother. The CLD answered all my questions and got back to my family in relatively short order. They have lots of different activities and events for their residents. The facilities seem to be top notch and the staff and residents have been very outgoing so far. I truly believe my family and I made the right decision by utilizing Colonial Courtyard.

Amazing inside and out

Colonial Courtyard is amazing and I would recommend to anyone looking for a place for your loved one if you can no longer care for them. My mother was very hesitant on moving in at first a few months ago but ever since she has been having a lot of fun with everyone there. The activities and food are tailored to her perfectly. She had not had a single complaint of anything. The staff is great at keeping us family informed on changes and even what activities she attends. I like that I am able to see photos from every event, game or party on their Facebook page. I recently visited for a game of swatter ball where it was kind of like a game of volleyball but with hand swatters- it was so much fun and I heard the laughter filling the hallways even to the front door. I’m so happy that my mother is out and about having fun and making friends instead of sitting in her home worried about how to take care of herself. The nursing staff if very knowledgeable as well, they always have a explanation

Our Experience

The facility itself (including furniture, decorations, lobby, gathering areas, etc) is very nice. The salesperson was very good at her job. But once we got our loved one there, things went sideways. He fell down about 7 times in the three weeks that he was there, hitting his head and requiring ER visits multiple times. The Colonial Courtyard staff was unwilling to work with me to keep my loved one from falling. I bought a sensor that alarmed when my loved one stands up, but they wouldn't use it. We ended up moving him to a different facility and things are much better for him there. I would definitely NOT recommend Colonial Courtyard to anyone with mobility issues/fall risks.

CCB was attentive and understood how to help assist my mother with her transition to SL. [Name removed] and [name removed] were both knowledgeable as well as compassionate when it came to all the information. It immediately felt like home. My family and I would recommend them to love and care for any and all seniors looking for extra care.
