Commonwealth Senior Living

What our family likes the most about the Commonwealth Senior Living community in Norfolk, VA is the staff, they are so friendly and they prepare really good quality meals along with good meal options.

It was the nicest and most reasonable place that had a vacancy right away. We were in a time crunch and we wanted to make sure[name removed] was in a good place. Go for it if you can. You won't be sorry. After talking to [name removed] we were sure we were making the right decision.

At this time, we would rate every category a 5. My mother has been very pleased at Commonwealth in Salisbury. The facility is very clean, the food is good quality, the atmosphere is bright and inviting in the entrance and the common areas. She has a 2 bedroom unit and it is perfect for what she needs. I do not think they offer many of those. They are opening up a new section soon and I believe the units there will be larger than the basic units they offer now. I would recommend Commonwealth in Salisbury to others.

All 5 stars! This is a beautiful facility. It is spotless and cheerful. Staff are friendly and attentive. Our family has visited 5 to 6 days per week. The care is consistent and the food is excellent. We couldn't be more pleased. Thank you A Place for Mom for the referral (we prayed about this the night before the interview - this was an answer to prayer). This was the first and only facility I toured. I knew immediately this was the place. I did not see any reason to have to visit other facilities.

We picked this community, because of the friendliness of the staff management cleanliness and out the other patients were being traded it was a super placeThey did a wonderful job with my mom and the staff treated her and the other people like family. I would highly recommend it.

I toured The Devonshire and this facility was excellent! This facility also felt very welcoming. The staff, friendliness, and cleanliness were all excellent as well. I only chose a different facility due to having a patio and being close to family.

[name removed] chose this facility because he just like it best out of all of the ones that we looked at, it was all up to him not mem Housekeeping is a little slack. I have to bring things to their attention most of the time.

They were warm and welcoming providing good care. Mom was only there 10 days. I would recommend Commonwealth Senior Living at Willow Grove, to other families.

They are great!! Very helpful. Lots of activities. If my mother calls me and is upset and angry with me I can call them and they take care of and thank me for letting them know. It's very clean staff is friendly and they are always taking care of the people. We would very much recommend the Commonwealth Senior Living community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

The staff and director have provided excellent care for both my parents. My dad had dementia and had gotten to the point that we could no longer take care of him at home. Mom had no memory issues but they allowed both to stay together in the Sweet Memories unit. The staff were excellent helping us as my father passed. Now that dad is gone I am great full for the support, the caring atmosphere and kindness they give to my mom. I have no qualms recommending The Commonwealth Senior Living to any one’s loved ones.

They are friendly and always willing to help. The staff is always there to help and answer questions. The facility is always clean.

All of the staff members and residents are super friendly, and the place itself is way nicer then expected - it does not have that nursing home feel to it at all. The value for cost is excellent - for the price it is a really good place. The meals aren't crazy good, sometimes our loved one says the food doesn't come out super hot. Our loved one does not really participate in the activities but we appreciate their effort in trying to get our loved one involved. Based on our experience we would recommend Commonwealth Senior Living to other families.

The staff at Commonwealth have worked with us very well. They're making sure that our loved one's medication is being administered as needed. They care about his well being. And I would highly recommend them.

With our loved one have Alzheimer's the staff here have been very good with him, truly they have been wonderful to him as well as our family. They have really good activities there - they had a Christmas holiday party and are throwing a Valentine's Day party as well. They have even taken our loved one and other residents out on their van for a day trip. We have had a few lunch meals together and they are really good.

We loved it. It was a newer facility. I talked to one of the residents, and had a good conversation. It was a step-up and had bigger rooms.

My loved one did not move into the facility, because it was too far to travel to. They were top of line. We were attracted by, the cleanliness, and programs offered catering to the memory care facility part. The dining area was very nicely done. Everything was great.

Very welcoming atmosphere. Top rate activities staff. Very caring and friendly staff - from when you come in the front door, to management, to dining room staff, to the care attendants. I have not had one thing to complain about. Everyone treats the residents with the utmost respect.

This was a nice community and smelled lovely. It was too far from family.

I truly wish I'd moved Dad from the previous care facility (which shall remain nameless) to Commonwealth earlier. The staff, nurses, Activity Director all made a happy difference for my Dad. I can't thank them enough. They were there when I needed them most, in his final days in hospice care. So much care, so much understanding. He was kept happily busy with the organized and well thought out activities. When the time came to say goodbye to my 90 (almost 91) year old Dad, I was guided and assisted by whom I can only describe as angels, such wonderful women, who were there through every step of his last days. I am beyond grateful for them and all who work in this facility. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, clean, organized place to move their loved one.

Caton Merchant House was still wearing masks and isolating at the time and we did not think that would be a mentally healthy environment. All accommodated our schedules and allowed both virtual and in person tours for our family members.
