The Best Assisted Living Communities in Valencia County, NM

"We found our mom a home in Alma Assisted Living. She has been there for a couple of months now. It's a small and privately owned assisted living home with four bedrooms and a couple of people there. So far it is good. They have a nurse that goes there a couple of times a week and a doctor that goes in on weekends to do evaluations. It is not like living in a medical community. It is more like a house with medical help going to the house. They're providing excellent service for my mom. She likes watching TV and she likes eating their meals as far as I know. The rooms are spacious and very homey. They don't feel like you're in a medical facility, they're very comfortable rooms. I would recommend them to others 100%. "

"My mother has been at Little Rose's Board And Care Home for a little while, but so far it's good. It's more like a home. They dispense her medications and provide her three meals a day plus snacks. They take her to the store and where she needs to go. She likes the food. It's affordable for her, but it would be nice if they would provide some activities for them."

"My father is in Sandia Senior Suites, it’s nice, and the staff is very helpful, and very nice to the residents. His room is clean, they straighten it out, and he likes the food. It’s kind of new, but it’s well-run."

"We found Willow Wood Assisted Living for my mother. I really liked the owner, he was very caring. I had to do a window tour because of COVID, but what I saw I liked, and my mother-in-law was there many years ago. It has a very home-like feel to it, and the caregiver seemed compassionate. The grounds were very nicely kept."

"I would go to Casa De Palomas. The staff was very knowledgeable and very personable. The cheapest room they had was small. It had a bedroom, a living room, and a small kitchen. They do have a one-bedroom with a balcony, and that was quite lovely. The dining room was beautiful. They had several different activities going on. "

"It was great. They took very good care of my mother and were very personable and professional. Everything they did for her was appreciated, but she passed away. It was a retirement facility, but they have a wing for assisted living. The cleanliness was very good."

"Ravenna Assisted Living's owner and wife were very kind and helpful. The rooms were fine. There were several activities, and the residents were in the hallways, and the assistants were helping them. It was a very active, clean environment that didn't smell when I came in."

"My husband had a stroke in November and was in the hospital for about 6 weeks. The doctors said he only has 3 months to live. He stayed at this facility for a short time because I couldn’t take care at home. He got more strength here, and improved so well, he can walk to the bathrooms himself with a walker. He enjoyed being around the other residents, hanging on the patio and socializing in the living room, and having music day on Mondays. The food is homemade and is excellent! We will go visit again his caregiver and the friends he made. I’m so amazed of his recovery. He even played a chess game with his daughter. We highly recommend this home! Maria "

"Albuquerque Uptown Assisted Living was very nice, very clean, and had a nice view from the window. The staff was nice. The dining area looked nice, clean, and bright."

"I worked for more than a decade as an elder care case manager and had many wonderful experiences with the care of my clients and others! The direct care staff are held to high standards of care for the elders, the home is clean and cheerful, active yet peaceful. The clients always shown the utmost respect! When it became time for my father to move from more independent housing, due to advancing dementia, I chose Constance House for him, to live the remainder of his life! I couldn’t be more happy with the loving attention he recieved, as a daughter and as a professional!! Ms Dimperio is very skillful and full of understanding and compassion! Frequently the residents enjoy cognitive stimulation including singing, listing to music, recognizing places on maps and discussing current and historical events!! Not such easy trivia! I always found the staff responsive to my requests and they always follow up with many medical concerns! "

"My mother has moved to Hilldale House. It's very bright and clean, they have lots of cameras. I really like it very much. They serve home-cooked meals and they're reasonably priced. We chose them because they have a very small group, only about six to eight at a time. It's very modern, it's all on one floor, so there are no ramps. The food is very good and they're very caring. I never see anyone in disarray or having a problem, and they're usually very quick to solve any problems that might arise with the elderly. The doctors on staff are really good, they have a very good medical side to it also. It's a very good place for assisted living folks, and even for some people, like my mother with Alzheimer's, it's a really good fit because they're so warm and hospitable. They had some newer people working there. They had a seated chair exercise regimen, they had entertainment that comes in, and they play some games. It's very homey and very comfortable."

"Wellsley is just a small place. They have a very friendly and helpful staff. I chose it for my dad because it has a lot of heart. They are very kind and sweet to their patients. There's a small amount of patients with a large staff. I'm really grateful to this community, we just had a really fun 4th of July party yesterday. My dad likes the food. It's a great place."

"Worse care for your love ones, these people keeped my mom medicated all day. My mom lost 35 pound in the 8 months she was there, I end up taking her to the ER where they clean her up with IV. Horrible care, please if you really care about your love one this is the last place you want to take them. Food was awful, they give them Kool-aid for juice. I had to bring my mom food because when i called her she was always hungry. I stop for lunch one day and the lunch was, frozen fish sticks with can or frozen peas and carrots, another day was frito pie, really ?these are eldery they need to eat healthy, decent meals. The ladies there are mean to them, They don't talk to them, don't interreact with them. They rather give them a pill and put them to sleep. They are horrible. If my mom had stay another month, I don't think she will be here. I have to say there was one lady there, her name is Martha very nice lady, she was the only one that show compasion and was caring like they should be with this poor eldery people. You can't ask questions because they get offended, like when you ask what they eat, why there is peep on the her room floor, why is her dieper always dirty. In other worse look else where."

"This is a very caring and wonderful facility. They take very good care of the residents. The facility is always clean, the residents receive a high level of individual attention. Very glad that we found this facility."
