I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My wife has moved into Commonwealth Senior Living at The Ballentine. I like it myself. I haven't found any faults in it or anything yet, but I like it. I like the upkeep. I like the way it's run and all. I don't have any problems with it or anything. The staff deal with my wife every day, and they're friendly, kind, and courteous. I have no problem with the staff. The community is very clean and maintained. It's up to standards and it's up to date. They have a large dining area. The rooms are neat, clean, and well-kept. With regards to activities, I've seen them playing bingo and things like that. They were playing other card games, too, and they have a room specifically for that, so I'm satisfied with it. The courtyard is kept clean because the day I went there, they had people who were cleaning up the leaves and all. It's a pleasant atmosphere. The community is quiet, peaceful, and comfortable.

Commonwealth Senior Living at The Ballentine was very nice. I saw the memory care, and the staff was very friendly and the meals looked really good. They showed me menus and activity calendars. Everything was pretty much the same as the other place we chose except the other place was sunnier and more open. Some of the residents there said that the food was really good. They had a chapel, Sunday services, a big courtyard where the residents and families could visit, activities, and physical therapy.

Provider Response

At The Ballentine, the staff were wonderful, the chef was amazing, and the rooms were quite nice. They had lots of rooms with gardens available. They really seem like a well-rounded facility. For their activities, they had gardening. Most people come in to get lectures. They have a lot of activities, and it is a really nice place.

The Ballentine was very nice; it was one story, and the courtyard was really nice. They have different room sizes.

I visited The Ballentine. It looked like a nursing home even from the lobby when you walked in. I did talk to the staff there and got some information regarding how being a veteran can help to defray some of the costs of staying there, but I got the feeling that it was a level of care that was way beyond what we were looking for at this time.

The facility is well-kept as well as the grounds. The personnel that work there are very pleasant which I think is amazing; it is a tough job. The rooms are clean and the food is good; my in-laws are happy. They've been there since May and they've been very happy.
