The Residence at Valley Farm is an outstanding community. Everyone is warm, welcoming and goes out of their way to make you feel at home. The move in process was seamless, the dining and activity options are well planned. My sister was the resident and over the course of the months, required increased assistance, (which was delivered in her apartment), the team was professional and caring in helping to negotiate the next steps, into Memory Care. Any questions or concerns were answered or addressed within a timely manner. The Care Plan Director, nursing staff and RCA's are skilled, caring and professional. I would recommend the Residence at Valley Farm to anyone looking for a community of continuity of care.

I think ALL assisted living communities are crazy expensive. Overall I'd highly recommend Valley Farm.

I have peace and comfort knowing that my dad is happy and has wonderful people taking care of him in my absence. He loves his new home and is making new friends. Thank you for helping families so that they can feel at ease knowing their loved one is safe.

The staff is nice but many times they are short staffed. Many nights I gave my mother a shower myself and got her dressed in her pajamas. They served French fries a lot instead of vegetables. The food was not very nutritious. She would have hot dogs frequently. She never ate hot dogs.

Had to move mom into assisted living and found this gem. The staff is amazing. They are kind and sympathetic to your needs. We are treated like family. There is no lack of help or care . The dinning room is like going to a restaurant and the food is fantastic. They have activities schedule everyday. And family members are welcome at any time. We are very blessed to have found a place like the Residence at Valley Farm in Ashland.

Our mother lived here for almost five years. The staff was very caring and helped my mom through some difficult times until her passing. She was happy here. She always said the food was good and the people are nice.

I would recommend you ask lots of questions about the care your loved one needs. They weren't able to accommodate all the care my loved one needed while here. There were three meals a day severed and there were choices to choose from for the residents. The activities were very quiet and subdued. There was no music playing during activities, and it would be nice to see more lively interaction with the residents.

It's a good place it's very hard to take care of the different kinds of variety of patients they have to deal with. They are doing a good job. I thank them every time I leave for doing what they do because I know I did it, took care of my parents for several years.

What really stood out to us right away is just the facility itself, it is very clean, open and inviting. Based on our families experience so far we would recommend this community to other families looking for a place for their loved ones.

We chose The Residence at Valley Farm because it just fit the needs of our loved one. The apartment sizes are really big. The food is really good, you get a menu with options to choose from and they are chef prepared meals. It is a very well run facility, administrative staff is great. I would absolutely recommend to others looking.

This community has a whole calendar of events from bingo, chair aerobics and a walking club. They also have arts and crafts, sometimes the residents will paint and during the holidays they may make decorations. They also have game and movie nights. The calendar is broken down by cognitive vs physical. The engagement director, she is fantastic. The food is fantastic, and the chef is amazing. Our loved one only eats certain things and the chefs caters to all of her wants. They have a very nice variety to choose from. The care takers who are with my mom day to day are amazing, they are so kind to her.

During my mother's stay at The Residence, the community has mostly been in lock down. From what I have heard, it has been good. Under the circumstances they have been working very hard and have also been transparent with us about what they are doing to keep the residents safe. We get weekly communications regarding what they are doing and they are alerting us whether or not they have had any cases. They have also tested the residents twice to make sure they know exactly who has what and where. They have also shown a lot of compassion towards us and our family. They do try to get my mother out of her room when possible, while keeping her safe at the same time. The director has been very responsive to my questions or concerns and has shown a lot of compassion.

The Residence at Valley Farm is very clean and well kept from the community rooms to the model rooms we toured to the outside grounds. The food is so delicious and the choices many every day. So many activities to choose. We enjoyed our tour immensely.

My Mom and I toured here. They would’ve been good for my parents but the only thing that held us back was the location. The girl that took us on the tour was very good. She went through all of our questions and went through what everything would cost and took the time to break it all down so we understood. When Mom came by, she tailored the tour for Mom so it wasn’t as long but she was still able to see the key points. They had coffee and snacks, which Mom really liked, and it was just a nice personal touch. I found it to be really comfortable and they seemed to care.

We toured this community for my mom's care. We liked the community but wanted for my mom to have a room that she could possibly have a room mate. The menu was appealing and the activities would have been a benefit for here. We like the care options, but this was not what we could afford for her care.
