Nice place, great people. The only downside to the place is the individual hvacs are old, and need replacement parts that apparently are very hard to get. So the heat is always on.

A Place for Mom has scored Benchmark Senior Living with 8.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 359 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, Benchmark Senior Living has 2,072 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.2 out of 5.
I found the director, JR, and his associate staff members to be very professional and easy to communicate with. The aides for the most part were good and caring with my mother. The only issue that was very difficult for my mother was that many of the aides have a heavy accent and she found it difficult to understand what they were saying. When they knew she was having a tough time trying to figure out what they said to her, many of them would slow down and try to speak more clearly. For the elderly, this is normal.

My mom has been living at The Village at Buckland Court for almost 9 months. The staff is very good and truly seem to care about the residents. The food is wonderful - both quality and variety. They have a nice variety of activities and the staff does a pretty good job at trying to get the residents involved. Overall I feel The Village is a safe and happy environment for my mom and would recommend it highly.

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. This was a very nice looking place, it was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. However, it was also very expensive. We ended up selecting another community, but this is somewhere I would have considered as an option for my loved one.

The people working there are always friendly and caring. The room always is clean, and laundry is done. Never had problem getting things tha break fixed. No complaints of care of my father, and there always is activities going on to participate in. The biggest hurdle is paying community fees and first months rent to move in, which amounted to [removed] and [removed] reactively. The monthly total rent which includes care can also be high.

Gorgeous facility. The pool is definitely a draw. The staff was really friendly. My mom was tempted by those things...Unfortunately, we found the menu lacking and the food mediocre. Unlike other places, Mariners Point does not have a kitchen(ette). Despite the lovely setting, not all the rooms have private outside access. Those few things made us move on. If those things are not high on your list, Mariners point is beautiful and definitely worth checking out!

Month 2 in respite I wanted to transition my dad at Benchmark Senior Living at Leominster Crossings. He needed day care at the Alzheimer's unit at harbor side. My dad would be at harbor side all day. My mom not at harbor side but was really liking it. The staff at harbor side were always encouraging her to come over because she was so fun. Well, then they decided my parents were too much work and wanted to charge me for mom being at harbor side when I am already paying a ton. Seriously the administrative side is terrible at this facility. The care side on the non harbor side is good. My dad had gotten no shower in a long time and stayed in the same outfit every day for many days. They have a real administrative problem over there. They have me gun shy over the whole situation. I like the every day aid that is there. The food is good and the place is clean. You are taking a huge risk with the administrative side at this facility. Buyer be ware!

My experience with them was that they were helpful and professional and provided a lot of information to us. The reason we chose this one was because my father was familiar with the facility, having already visited a friend who was staying there.

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. However, it was located a bit too far from family to be an option for us. But it seems like a nice place, and is definitely worth a look for those located a little closer!

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. However, I don't think the care was the best match for what my loved one was needing at the time. Overall it seems like a nice place, and is definitely worth a look!

Our experience with Sanctuary Care at Rye has only been a short one, but so far we are pleased! The facility has seemed clean and well kept every time I have visited, and all of the staff I have met have been friendly. It took a bit to get my loved one completely settled in (TV working, etc), but now that that is all worked out things are going well.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. Benchmark at Ridgefield Crossings seemed like a nice enough place overall, the staff we met were friendly and the facility itself was well kept and clean. We saw options in the area we thought would be a better fit for Dad, but I would still recommend this place as being worth a look!

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. I thought Benchmark at Split Rock seemed like a nice place overall. The staff I met were friendly, and the facility was clean and well kept. However, Dad is still very social and we wanted somewhere with a few more male residents. But overall this was one of the nicer options we saw, and definitely worth a look if you're searching in the area!
