Assisted Living Communities in Salem, NH

"My father is a resident of the Harbor, a memory impaired unit at Haverhill Crossings. The Harbor is a locked unit with the capacity for 25 residents. The staff is phenomenal!! They are very observant, compassionate and caring, and quick to report anything out of the ordinary. They treat their "family" with dignity and respect...and are very sensitive to their moods and changes. Our family have been very pleased with all the care provided for our Dad. "

"We went to Atria Marland Place. It was nice, but you're confined to the top floor. It's got a hallway to walk back and forth onto a small outside courtyard. It wasn't bad. The staff was great there. No problems with the staff. It was OK, it was clean."

"I toured The Courville at Nashua - Aynsley. They have varied dining hours, and they try to schedule the food for each person's personal and physical needs. Whenever they take new residents, the rooms are redone so that they're fresh and clean. They entertain quite frequently during the month. They have a bus that takes people out once or twice a week. During our visit, we dealt with the manager, and she seemed to have a good grip on how things were run. She was very knowledgeable about the care. This facility not only has assisted living, but it graduates right into the nursing home. The condition of the place was very nice. The floorplans were quite a wide variety. You had some private units and some shared units. It was quite flexible. The food I tried was quite tasty. It included the whole thing like the juices, the meal, the desserts, the coffees, and so forth. It was very good. They have a regular meeting room downstairs. They have a grand piano where they have someone come in and play at least once a week. They've got a nice courtyard where you can go outside and sit and enjoy the sun, plants and flowers, and so forth. It's pretty, pretty spacious. "

"We looked at Benchmark Senior Living at Chelmsford Crossing. It was pleasant. It seemed to be clean and well maintained, but the living quarters were small. "

"I saw All American Assisted Living at Kingston. I went to their memory care. The facility is brand new, so they're very, very nice. They're nice and clean, and they seemed very good. They have various activities. They offered food, but I didn't have any meals there."

"I researched the property myself. Upon my findings I found that the facility was very clean, the staff was very helpful and cheery. The marketing director very nice and made me feel right at home, she brought me a glass of wine. I could not believe the dining room was beautiful. I only had one concern was I have family that visits me with their kids. I did not see a place where we could visit together. "

"The Gables was a nice, quaint place on a waterfront that was close to Sutton and conveniences. I liked its ambiance. "

"It was certainly in an acceptable location. The facility itself, the accommodations,and the way they handled the meals were fine. The ability to go from one level to another and how they dealt with the guests were acceptable. They showed me the garden that some of the residents had access to. "

"I have chosen here for respite care for mom. It's not a permanent move-in; she will be there for thirty days. It's a nice, small community, and it's a very clean building. I found that the people who work there are very easy to work with and accommodating. It was a very pleasant place. It's a nice-sized room, and it's certainly not small. It's nice, and it came with the furnishings that were needed: a bed, a chair, and a dresser. The only thing I would find fault with -- and it's not their fault -- is the way the building is arranged. The rooms don't have a private bathroom, but there are certainly many bathrooms available. In the summer, they have outside activities. They also do some bus trips. It seemed like a good level of activities for the type of people they were dealing with. I saw a couple of community rooms. I did not see anything that has to do with exercise, like a pool or anything. This is totally memory care, so I don't believe they had that, but they certainly had several gathering places. They had many books available, almost like a library. They had TVs and movies. They definitely had activities. There's a code that is published at the door. You have to push the code to get in and out, so it's not a locked facility, but if you do not push the code, an alarm goes off, so they are alerted if someone just tries to go out. It's a very pleasant place and in thirty years, I wouldn't mind being there myself."

"The Pines of Newmarket Senior Living was excellent. The rooms were excellent. I liked everything. It was perfect. The staff was very nice. I didn't see anything wrong. All of the rooms might have been double rooms, and I didn't like that. The price was a little cheaper than the prices at most other facilities. It was clean. Everything was on the first floor. "

"The rooms are spacious and immaculate. The staff and management are helpful and very nice. There are lots of things going on all day long. The menu is varied with a variety of side dish options. The salon does hair, nails, and pedi. I WISH my Mom would move here!! This is(by far) the nicest facility we have toured in recent weeks. "

"Scandinavian Living Center was an absolutely lovely facility. Great staff, beautiful, lots of recreational and educational opportunities, and good food. It had beautiful rooms, small, intimate settings. You name it, they have it: music, dance, games, outside speakers coming in, and community organizations that meet in the building so the seniors can participate. You basically have a little apartment with a little bit of a kitchenette, but they had communal meals too."

"We did visit Maplewood at Weston. Some of the rooms were being renovated, but we did get to see one that somebody was occupying already, so we have an idea of how they looked when they’re done renovating. They had a pool, a gym room, and a library. It was very nice. The dining area looked good. It was clean and nice. The staff was very friendly and very nice. What I like about Maplewood was that the rooms had balconies, and that was something that you wouldn’t see anywhere else. "
