Commonwealth Senior Living

The receptionist was really friendly when we first came to look at the community, the other staff members who work there seem really friendly as well. The apartment that our loved one lives in is very nice clean and up to date. The value for cost is pretty good as well.

This is a good community in an older building. They have an app that allows you to see what your loved one did during the day.

We chose Commonwealth because I walked through and saw a lot of veterans talking sports and that is something that my uncle could get into. The people here are more bluecollar and I liked the atmosphere. The apartment size is good for him, he is in the smallest one and it works for what he needs. I would recommend them to others.

I would recommend you look at the community, as it was a good fit for our loved one. It is a warm, loving, and caring, community. I believe my loved one could be showered more often than they are currently.

We chose Commonwealth Senior Living because I liked that this facility was smaller and everybody seemed friendly when we came in. She went with a private room and it was perfect for her needs. [name removed], the lady that greets you when you walk in is wonderful and that sets the tone for the whole facility. We had some really great nurses and everyday staff. My moms complaint on the food was that they put pepper on everything, but I talked to the chef and he was great at accommodating her needs. I would recommend them to others looking.

Our experience up until the last two weeks have been excellent. When we are able to visit the community is very clean and the staff members are very friendly. Our loved one has yet to complain about the meals so we assume they are pretty good, and we do know our loved one likes participating in bingo. Currently we are just going through some issues.

Our family has been able to have an in person tour, and there was not too many restrictions or guidelines we had to follow. The tour was really nice.

I have lived at Golden Orchards for a year and a half. I like to be with people. Staff are very nice. I just love it here. I get along with everyone. TV could be better. DirecTV goes in and out with bad weather. We could also use a generator.

Great service with attention to

The staff are very friendly, and it's a very supportive community. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and economical. The community is easily accessible to Salisbury and the surrounding areas.

I was impressed with Commonwealth during my visit. Although not as impressive from the outside as some other places I’ve visited, the inside was very nice. My tour guide knew everyone by name and seemed genuinely caring. Breakfast and dinner is included six days a week and brunch on Sunday for independent living. The apartments were very nice. Lots of closet space and outlets. It is smaller than some places which makes it very easy to get around the facility. Overall I was very happy with my visit.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t really like at Commonwealth. But they didn’t really get back to me after our tour, so I didn't spend a lot of time looking into them. The sales rep at a different community was amazing and made things really easy, so that other community is where we ended up.

We toured Commonwealth and really liked it. Everyone seemed to be very nice and it was a brand new facility. It had everything we needed but the other Commonwealth was closer to our house so we went with that one.

So far so good. My loved one is still waiting on the room that she wants that has a kitchenette in it. I would just tell others to ask a lot of questions up front, the little things you don't normally think about like the internet, who will help during move in, etc. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

The Saybrook was a very nice place, all one level, and a beautiful facility. We came very close to moving in. They came to our home to do the assessment, but they said they were just not ready for him to move in. I'm not sure exactly why, although it could have been related to the pandemic. We needed more immediate placement, so we ended up selecting a different place.

There was an extreme lack of communication from the nurses and aides who were actually assisting my loved one. The administrative folks were very responsive. But as far as getting blood pressure readings, making sure medications were being administered, that bed linens were clean, and that my loved one had basic supplies, there was no communication from the people who were taking care of her. Which I didn't like at all. This very well could have been because of Covid. But because of Covid, I think communication should have been even better, as opposed to what I experienced. I understand that had I been able to go inside more and see for myself, my questions would have been easily answered. As it was, it was difficult to ask over the phone and then not get a call back. When we moved my loved one in and out, it was very nicely kept, and it didn't smell. I can't complain about any of that. She told me that the food was great. She was a dessert fan, so desserts evidently were really good. And they often had fresh fruit, which she enjoyed.

The community has easy accessibility, communication is good when it comes to callbacks but they did have some issues with providing mail to us. The community is a great value. I would recommend this community to others.

The community is clean and friendly. They have a bus service and washers and dryiers. The communication is good between the staff and the family and they keep us well informed. I would recommend this community to others

Liked the facility and felt that it is possible they can meet my Father-in-Law’s needs based on the tour and information we received on Saturday. However, need to speak with [name removed],POC, as he was unavailable during our tour but is contacting me Monday to obtain information I need and to answer questions.

Nice physical plant that is apparently well taken care of. The lounge and dinning are large and cozy! [name removed] took me on a brief tour. The private rooms are spacious and handicapped friendly as they have a creative Activity Director. On the down side, they have an up front fee of $2500 they claim is used to refits the room before occupancy. Cost is moderate. No in-house physician is a bummer! But overall, this is a possible!
