My Brother's Experience

They just did landscaping around all the villas and the assisted living building. Very nice. Waiting on maintenance is still somewhat of a problem but better since they fired their maintenance head. I would welcome more communication with the main building. My brother's biggest challenge is the walk from his villa to the main building for food and activities. Too far for him to walk and exposed to the elements if he does.

Perfect Solution

My brother's overall experience is good. It was the availability of an independent apartment that made my brother and I choose Farnham. The 2bedroom apartment is very roomy. Generally well kept up. A bit awkward to get meals. He was not ready for assisted living but was experiencing mild memory problems, so this living situation near me is ideal for now. I am very glad he is a part of a continuing care community because I may not be able to meet his needs in the future. That is a blessing.

Peaceful, friendly country-side community

Our loved one is in independent living so there is no care involved. What our family likes the most about Commonwealth Senior Living is the Individual independent care units (not an apartment block). Close to family in neighboring town. House keeping service. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families.

Our families experience

Overall the experience has, been good. I go there once a week since it's 2 hrs. Away. The staff is always friendly . Neal is at level 4 care, so hospice comes in and gives him some extra care. He always tells me how good the food taste. I usually feed him and it looks good.

Great place for loved ones with friendly staff and we would recommend

With our loved one have Alzheimer's the staff here have been very good with him, truly they have been wonderful to him as well as our family. They have really good activities there - they had a Christmas holiday party and are throwing a Valentine's Day party as well. They have even taken our loved one and other residents out on their van for a day trip. We have had a few lunch meals together and they are really good.

A Nice Community

We really like the location of the community, it is in a rural setting. We really like the idea that they have independent living, assisted living and memory care all in the same location so they have all the resources available. We like the nature of independent living being in a separate building so other than housekeeping and a meal service you are living independently. Based on our experience we would absolutely recommend this community to other families.

Commonwealth Senior Living at Farnham review

The receptionist was really friendly when we first came to look at the community, the other staff members who work there seem really friendly as well. The apartment that our loved one lives in is very nice clean and up to date. The value for cost is pretty good as well.

Highly recommend

We chose Commonwealth Senior Living because it was recommended to us. The apartment sizes here are very spacious and easy to get around in. He has his own back porch big enough for a grill and outside table. He moved in once covid started but I know they take them on trips and things like that. They have just started making arrangements for residents to get their shots. I do not have to worry about him which is very nice. Overall, we have had a good experience and would recommend to others who are looking.

Probably Better Than Most

The community was ok. The room was clean and had ample space. The furniture could have been rented or been provided. The food looked ok. The nurses were better than average. There wasn't much communication between the family and the community. The executive director has no health care experience, his degree is in marketing, and clearly not capable

Not a homey feeling!

I can say that I really liked the Executive Director she was very, very helpful. Everyone was very nice to us. The building was nice as well. I just did not like the cold not so homey feeling that the place gave me. I wanted mom to feel warm and at home.

Beautiful facility. Light & airy appearance. Quiet and clean, creating a calm environment. No unpleasant odors. I especially like the meal planning, preparation, and delivery. Not institutional food, rather fresh or frozen & cooked on site.Rooms are large.Interactions between staff & clients/residents seemed pleasurable. Lovely gardens and interesting activities. I would love to see my loved one at this facility!

The best part of Farnham Manor are the staff. It is obvious to even the casual observer that all of the direct care staff and others care about the residents. There is a level of staff maturity that gives me confidence that good care is the norm. I have heard only good things about the food and planned activities.
