Senior Living in Hampden County, MA

"My father-in-law was at Keystone Commons and it was very good. It's clean and the staff was attentive. His room was well cared for. It was very good. Everything was more than adequate. As my father-in-law's abilities to take oral nutrition independently faded or were diminished, the staff was attentive and helpful when he needed assistance on that. Depending on someone's functional abilities, they offer differing activities, whether it's games or things like bingo or music therapy. They offer pet therapy as well."

"Orchard Valley at Wilbraham was fabulous. All of the staff members were wonderful. Stephanie was the one that I dealt with, and she couldn't have been any more attentive or helpful. The room that my cousin was going to go into was way more than we expected. It was really like a two-room suite, it was delightful. My cousin was going into a respite room, and then if that worked out and she decided to stay, then she would bring her own things in. We were thrilled that they offered that kind of situation because everything was happening so fast here that we needed to move quickly. So, going into a respite room rather than thinking about having to outfit it with all of my cousin's own furniture made it a lot easier. We were really sad that it didn't end up happening, but they couldn't have been any more helpful."

"All American Assisted Living looked like it would be a very nice place. It was just a little bit expensive. They've got all the conveniences there. They have their own medical staff and your personal grooming is all taken care of right there. The rooms were very nice. They were fairly roomy. Their dining area was very clean and spacious. The staff was very informative. The building is approximately two years old."

"I visited Suffield by the River to see their memory care. It's top-notch and a great place. It's right near my home, very clean, and well-appointed. The staff could be a little bit friendlier, though. It's got everything that anybody would need but it's also a little bit pricey. They have shared rooms and private ones if you want to pay extra. They have common areas and a dining hall. They have activities and plenty of stuff for the residents to do. They also have a lot of in-house services like the usual hairdresser."

"I toured with a family member looking for independent living. I was shown a nice apartment in the main building, many amenities. I also looked at a cottage, beautiful, great size and even has a garage and full basement. The grounds have many opportunities for walking, sitting and interacting with residents on the property."

"Rooms are spacious and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. Food is fabulous! I highly recommend Stonebrook at Windsor Locks for your loved one!"

"I think that Cedarbook Village at Ware is a fabulous community. My uncle is there and they made it very easy to do the intake and to let me know what they had to offer on my uncle's behalf. They assessed him and determined the level of care he would most benefit from and they've been very kind and very good to him. The facility is clean. Everyone is very nice and polite. I've had no concerns whatsoever. It would be nice though to see some additional gatherings or group activities involving more of the men, like getting together on Sundays to watch football or soccer games."

"Brookdale South Windsor was nice. We liked it. It's really nice inside. However, the rooms were a little smaller than the place we chose. Everyone was very friendly when we were there. The building seemed so much bigger from the inside."

"My father will be moving into The Village at Buckland Court. Everyone's been really friendly. They make my dad very welcome there. It's very spacious inside. We liked how there was a lot of little gathering spots in the building. Everyone's very welcoming. My dad's very comfortable."

"My father moved into The Residence at South Windsor Farms. Our overall experience with it is very positive. I like that they know all the residents and that they make sure that they're getting the care that they need. The room is bright and up to date. He enjoys their food. They have all kinds of activities to choose from, like exercise, crafts, and games. The staff members are very friendly, and the residents seem happy and well cared for."

"Evergreen Crossings Retirement Community was lovely. We visited my father-in-law and he gave us a tour. We had a meal. Everything was positive. It was pleasant. He was clean. All the staff was very helpful, caring and considerate, professional and friendly. I saw nothing wrong. I had a prime rib. The chef was excellent. He had a two-bedroom and it was well-sized. The place was clean and it was warm. I didn't see the activities other than the meal. However, the price was going up considerably."

"My aunt is doing fine in Holiday White Oaks. She is very happy there. It's wonderful and it's impeccable. The staff made us feel so comfortable, like a family. Their food is very good. My aunt has no complaints. The staff members are wonderful. I've seen the activities, and they look great. My aunt would definitely participate. Right now, she's on oxygen in her room, which is fine, but she doesn't have a portable one yet and so we're waiting for the oxygen people to come out and put her a portable one on her arm so then she can walk around and do the activities. Nevertheless, their activities are wonderful. The rooms are filled with people, and they're all so happy. They have wheelchairs and they have walkers, but they get around and they just want to be with other people and have fun, and that's just what White Oaks allows, and it's wonderful."
