The staff was very good at handling the residents. The community is new and beautiful. They are always hiring people. We ended up having an aid after the second night for our loved one. I feel that our loved one should have been in a different community due to his dementia. The food was even decent.

We chose this community because of the rehab, but my mom did not get the rehab that I wanted. For what you are paying, the rooms are nothing spectacular, they are very old and need work. The food is alright, but they do not get to pick what they eat. I would recommend The Village at Willow Crossing, it is not a bad community it's just very expensive.

We chose Benchmark Senior Living because of the director and the people at the facility, they all seemed very happy. They also have a great reputation and the facility looks nice. The room sizes are adequate. My mother in law thinks that the food post COVID has been horrendous, prior to COVID, she thought it was just ok. The food isn't really fresh and there is not a lot of variety. My favorite part about this community would be how close it is to us and that she is happy and well cared for. I would recommend to a friend or family member.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the community replaced all the couches in the common area with leather instead of cloth because it is easier to clean. They have also been very responsive to families, updating us on what is going on within the community. The staff has done a nice job with engaging my father in the wide array of activities they are offering. They have previously brought in outside entertainment, had family involved events for holidays, and more. My father loves the food here, specifically the soup.

The community was clean. No matter what their job was, the staff would go out of their way to help out. And if they couldn't they would refer me to someone who could. My mother had private aids as well as the community's aids and they had some trouble with coordinating her care together. It took some time to work through the initial challenges surrounding this. The activities staff were terrific. They did a really good job with encouraging my mother to participate, which really improved the quality of her life. My mother also really liked the food and when we would dine with her, we thought the same.

The community is often clean. The staff is great and my mother loves them all. They go out of their way to be nice to everyone and acknowledge everyone and they do a good job planning fun activities for the residents. The services at the community, like food and activities, are good. They don't have enough hours for transportation, and the buses tend to break down. They also seem to have trouble finding drivers as well.

The cleanliness of the community seems to be a priority for them and they have done a good job with the Covid-19 pandemic. The staff seems very conscientious with the residents and their families and have been open for questions. They have been great. The only issue with the care services is that it is hard when my grandmother moves to a higher care level and then the price jumps, which can be difficult when she is on fixed funding. Other than that, everything surrounding her care is great.

Benchmark at Haverhill Crossings in Haverhill, MA

The place is immaculate, they are also always cleaning. Aside from the normal day to day cleaning, they contract an outside organization to come in once a month and do a deep clean. My father's room is also kept up very well. The staff's communication with us and our father is terrible. We would probably give them a five here if they were better with that. The staff aside from that are friendly and they are very good with the residents. The food here is excellent and the activities, pre-Covid-19, were excellent as well. It is very expensive for my father to have a very small apartment and very few services.

They seemed to have a lot of hands on deck for cleaning and everything was taken care of the way it should be. The staff was very friendly and engaging. They all knew our first names, which made it feel very much like a family environment. The services like food or nursing assistance were all great as well. The specialty they had here was that they were able to individualize each resident's needs and customize their care. There were a multitude of activities available to the residents throughout the day as well.

Everything is going well at The Atrium. They call us once a week with updates. The care giving staff is very communicative and is quick to confirm anything they need in terms of my mother-in-law's care. Because the community is on lock down as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the staff offered to FaceTime with us to make sure my mother-in-law got time to see us and interact with us. The cost is steep and my mother-in-law is quickly running low on funds, and The Atrium does not accept Medicaid so she will need to move relatively soon. They normally have good activities available for the residents as well. The executive director is fantastic and is always very communicative and will to address any of our concerns.

High quality, professional Assisted Living community. We liked it. It was a transition for my mom, but she adjusted quickly. They have a really nice garden area that is easy to access by the residents, It is secured and feels like a park. The food is pretty good. The sales person over promised and under delivered. She said my mom could get help with her dog and when we moved in that never happened. Otherwise we were happy.

I liked the Village at Brookfield. It was an affordable option. The food was good. They offer various care levels and price points to suit each person's individual needs. We liked that it is a smaller size community and felt cozy and welcoming. They have a calendar of events, they had choral groups brought in to entertain the residents, which we enjoyed.
