Commonwealth Senior Living at East Paris

Commonwealth is a wonderful community. My mom is adapting well and has experienced all good. She really likes it there. These staff is super supportive. I gave a 4 on food because my mom says every once in awhile she doesn't care for the selection. Commonwealth offers transportation services to meet residents needs. They have a day set up for medical. A day set up for groceries or other shopping services. You just have to call the week before if needed the following week. Also initially I thought it was only 2 meals a day provided. Commonwealth provides all 3. My mom and I highly recommend Commonwealth it is a lot of value for your dollar.

Stay as far away from it as you can. I picked it because I wasn't able to come and check it out myself and I was not told the truth about it it was nothing like I was told. It does not have the elders care, as number one

We picked this community, because it felt very welcoming and helpful when I spoke with them on the phone and called me back quickly. It was amazing. I would have a friend, call them, get a tour, and let them know that my loved one is so grateful to be there.

Mom is at Commonwealth Senior Living at East Paris. She is in the memory care and our experience has been pretty good so far. She's new there so we're still kind of trying to see how things go, but the management was really kind and good about getting her in there. Occasionally they are not real quick to answer the phone, but I understand that they get busy trying to take care of people. The facility is clean and in good condition. It's all relatively new. They've just refurbished it, so it's nice. The color scheme is bright and updated, and not more dark and gloomy. This place is much brighter and feels more upbeat than the other places. Mom seems to be OK with the food. It's nice because they don't overstate what they have. They don't make it complicated. Some places write things down for the residents and they don't understand what they are because they put soup du jour instead of soup of the day, but there, they're just straightforward about telling you what they're having. Mom has gone out and watched some movies a couple of times, and they have some other activities and stuff, but I think there are some people who would probably like to do some things that are a little more active, more than just sit down exercises. Most of the staff that I've interacted with have been very kind and helpful for the most part. We've had a couple little hiccups with the things that were miscommunicated from where she was before to where she is now, but they've been trying really hard to get everything situated and make things work, and they seem to be kind and engaging with the residents. For the most part, they're doing pretty good.

We picked this community, because they allowed dogs and were in our price range. But also the renovations looked nice and promising I haven't been impressed. They don't have good communication or follow through. Trasportation was offered but not provided as promised.
