Somers Place

Facility provides continued oversight of your loved one. They are continually care for and looked after. I visit the site 2x-3x per week to see my mother and she looks great is well dressed and well groomed. Meals and snacks are fantastic. All staff including director, asst. director are hands on. They are around the facility providing assistance and care. they are many staff hands on deck to assist residents at all times.

Somers Place was very nice, and we liked it a lot. I have friends I am trying to put in there. It’s a nice place, I had known people there, and it’s very nicely organized. It was very clean, but it’s a little bit too much money for him. The staff was friendly, it was acceptable, it was very well done, and the food was good.

I have been a volunteer here for 4 years now. I am a disabled man, but I am "able" to do many things. I have had wonderful experiences with both the residents, as well as our fine, capable, thorough staff! As is always the case in life there are pluses & minuses. Yet, I have noticed that we always try our very best to find the "silver-lining" in life's challenges!

Moving my father from his home to assisted living was emotionally overwhelming, and five siblings had to agree on the decision. Thanks to the staff and many meetings, we confidently made the best choice for our father's care. The staff is now our extended family.

The level of personal care and attention to my father -- an Alzheimer's patient -- has been both consistent and remarkable. It is comforting to know he is in good hands.

Wonderful experience with my mom at Somers Place, anything she needs at any time. Everyone is friendly and helpful. After a fall she was able to have all the help she needed, so I didn’t have to worry about anything. Family atmosphere and a beautiful place, highly recommended.

Somers Place was a little smaller in terms of the number of rooms. It seemed to be a little more intimate. Also, it is within 5 miles of my sister's home, so I have family close by. The staff had no problems giving me as much time as I wanted to look around. They took me on the tour. I met several of the residents. It just seemed to be a very homey environment. At that time, they were dyeing Easter eggs because a couple of days later, they were inviting their grandchildren over for an Easter egg hunt, so that was cool. Also, they were having a little sing-a-long because they had somebody playing the piano; they were singing tunes from the 1940s. The home is a made into a great big square with an open courtyard in between -- it was beautiful. Also, since there are no outside doors except for the front entry, the dementia people knew that they could get to the inside square. I also could tell that they really keep the place together maintenance wise. The hallways were 6 feet wide and they had railings on both sides of the hallway. I think that's important. Outside their rooms, each resident put something out that was personal to them. Most of them put out an end table and they had pictures of themselves or pictures of their grandkids. So there was personality and it wasn't just a wreath hanging and a name sticker on the resident's door. It was more of a home.

I have very little to compare them with others, but they have a respite room and were able to take my mother on Thanksgiving after a trip to the ER and we were told that she could not be left alone. The room was very nice & clean. You can see many "homey" touches in the lobby and throughout the hallways. They have many activities planned throughout the day. They plan field trips. A lovely dining room with delicious meals & they can make arrangements for guests to be served. I can visit Mom 24/7. I can sign her out for a special day. I am very impressed, and I feel very comfortable leaving my mother there knowing that she will get great care.
