The Best Memory Care Communities in Rockingham County, NH

"My mother has moved into Greystone Farm at Salem. It was more of my sister's decision. Of all the places that we went to see, my sister just seemed to feel the most comfortable there. They seem to be attentive and they'll address any issues that we may have. They have singalongs, they have church services or some type of services on Sunday, and reading hour. There's a lot of different things that they do that I see on the board. The dining area seems very nice and very well stocked. The staff seems very good. They always seem to have snacks and things available between the meals. The staff is easily accessible and happy to help out whenever they can when you may have a question. It seems quite clean. I don't see anything that's alarming. It's quite expensive, but since this is the first time, I really don't have any comparison that I can use."

"We are thinking of choosing Windham Terrace for my aunt, it's an excellent facility. The staff has been very helpful and was a pleasure to deal with. The facility is clean, they've got activities, they've got hairdressing, and dining facilities and the place was very nicely laid out. They also have a gym, and salon, the place was immaculate and the hallways were very nice."

"We went to The Inn At Deerfield Inc. Memory care is a whole different experience than assisted living. It would be too much of a shock to try to move my mother-in-law into that and she's not ready for that, but the staff was friendly and outgoing. They seemed to have nice interactions with the people who were living there. They really cared. It felt like they could keep an eye on everybody. It was clean. If she got to that level of needing care, we would feel very comfortable having her in that place. The rooms were large enough. It's a little bit of an older place. It looks like it's been there for a while, but it wasn't dingy or dirty. I know someone who stayed there probably ten years ago. They're working with what they've got. We felt welcome and we felt like the people living there were treated with respect. It's not an easy job and we were impressed with them."

"My spouse lived at Benchmark for 2 years. The love and care that he received was exceptional. The aides and nurses were always very responsive. The activities were engaging and the food was consistently good too. Management is professional and responsive. I am glad that we chose Benchmark."

"My loved one has been a resident of Johnson Creek Village for 2 1/2 years. He has received consistently wonderful care by staff who go over and above! The food is very good and the surroundings are safe, clean and always comfortable. The residents are regularly engaged in appropriate activities by a very caring activities department. I've always been very grateful for Johnson Creek Village. The staff should only receive the highest of praise for the good work they do!"

"I went to Ashland Farm at North Andover. I know they seem very nice, very helpful, and wanted to make sure that the people who live there are part of the community and not just living in their own rooms and never coming out. They want them to get out and be active. The staff was great. They have activities every day. Everything looked fine."

"Spring Village at Dover was very warm and very professional. We saw the whole facility, and they explained it very well to us. It would be a good place for seniors with dementia. It seemed like a very safe and friendly place. It's very well thought out. The people that we talked to, the doctors and that, were very pleasant, understanding, and did well with what they do for the residents. It was a nice place. It felt like you were welcomed, even though you were just coming to visit and look. They welcomed us with a little open sign right at the door. I didn't think it was for us. I thought it was a party for one of the residents. So, the residents there are treated like they are family."

"The Residence at Silver Square was beautiful. It was a very beautiful place. It felt very energetic and very youthful. It felt very all-inclusive. Like you could continue with your life there, whether it's exercise and food. It was quite outstanding. The food was excellent. I was treated very well by the staff, but the main person was fairly new to the game. The Residence at Silver Square was a little uppity and upscale, and there was certainly a vibe about that. But I was thinking about my mother-in-law and that wouldn't be a place that would jazz her. It jazzed me, but I'm not going there. They had some very unique things that I thought stood out. However, the location was not that great."

"I like that Wadleigh House is small, the location is good, and that I knew some of the people already. I had to comment on the food because they were advertising it, but apparently someone moved in because the food was much better than at the other place. They have music, exercise class, and games where they speak different languages. The staff is very knowledgeable. It is very clean. I am looking forward to going there. "

"I toured Atria Marland Place. It's a very attractive, clean, and well-run community. I wouldn't hesitate to take advantage of the services. I went through it with the manager, who was very good. The facility was nice and pleasant."

"The Arbors of Bedford is very nice. They're very aware of the different abilities and the different personality types, quiet or more, either introverted or extroverted, and they gather them that way, and I liked it. I also liked the fact that it's on one floor. They were all very personable and made you feel welcome, and answered any questions. I mostly saw where they congregate, and it was beautifully done. Everything about the activities is posted for them. It's bright, cheerful, and very happy. The staff showed me the floor plans, and she explained them very well. It looks like it's very accessible, when you have a roommate or if you're on your own and have your own little place. It's very, very good. I was very pleased."

"I went to Bridges by EPOCH at Andover. The space was designed very well, and I like that their prices are all together. There's no calculating involved. The people were amazing. I met several people that lived here. I was very happy with the place. I got to see the menu and it looked delicious. They had a lot of options. I talked to a few of the residents and they said the food is great. Everybody seemed very happy. The atmosphere was very pleasant. I did not see any activity. Everyone was just finishing up lunch. It's beautiful, spacious, and very secure."

"The Giving Tree Senior Living is an amazing place. My grandpa moved there in October 2024, and it has been a wonderful experience for him and our family. From day one, everyone who works there has been friendly, supportive, and helpful. My grandpa absolutely loves his apartment. It’s spacious enough to give him his independence while still being a part of a community. He raves about the food— says the portions are generous and there is great variety to choose from. He’s always talking about how friendly and accommodating the staff is, which has made a huge difference in his experience. He enjoys spending time in the Pub, where he can play pool and socialize with friends. The community also has a movie room and an area for games. A nice touch is the piano in the lobby, for residents to play. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. The activities offered at The Giving Tree are fantastic, and they post the daily events in the elevator, so everyone knows what’s happening. The staff is amazing, and my grandpa has no complaints—he’s very happy there. If you’re looking for a place that truly cares for its residents and offers a wonderful community, The Giving Tree is the place. We couldn’t be more grateful for everything they do."

"My mother is in Hillsbrook Village at Allenstown. It's about $10,000 a month, and she's running out of money. The staff is excellent. The food is very good and appropriate. My mother happens to be in a special part of the facility called Egis, and it's for wandering people so that they don't have to tie them up. They have a place where they can wander safely. You can bring your loved ones in to have meals with the folks at that particular location. The dining area is very good. They have meals that are new and inventive, and then they have a lot of staples that most of us grew up with. The LNAs that come in and out are very, very helpful. They support that group of people every day. The actual RNs and such also are fantastic. If it was me, I would love it. I could play Scrabble every day, or Monopoly with other people. They have singers and storytellers and comedians coming in at least once a month. They're always promoting board games and cards and such for the entire community to use, and they have a library. They have heating and air-conditioning. My mother doesn't use all of their facilities, but if I was her age, I would be very happy. From the folks that are laundering the clothes, to the LNAs, like making beds, helping with showers, they're all trained properly. They are very good, and they have good ways of working with some of the folks that are maybe very troubled, because they're sick or whatnot, and these LNAs are bright lights for all of these people. They have crafts and it's available for everyone to use. It's well announced ahead of time. The people that like to sing can go out and sing. They have all kinds of stuff. Their food is very good. They have a variety for my needs and my mother's needs. I sometimes go with my mother to the cafeteria. It's a good menu and I think most people can say the same thing about it. They do their best, but there were some things I wish that they were doing differently in that area."
