Our Family's Experience: Peace of Mind

I just have to say, to be honest nothing is perfect in life, hence the 4s rather than all 5s. But the overall experience with BRC has been a 5. The staff is fantastic: so friendly and warm with the residents. The administration was really helpful to me wrt my mother's needs and prognosis and placement within the community to best support her. I was not objective, and they gently but firmly guided me to accept that Mom needed more help than I realized. I see assisted living residents at BRC meeting in the common are

The best memory care we looked at by far in every way. If my husband had not progressed to coming home with hospice we would have come to Benchmark

Review for Benchmark at Ridgefield Crossings

Everyone is courteous & helpful. And the food isn't too bad as my late Aunt would say. I would recommend them to others who are searching for a place for their loved one.

I would 100% recommend Benchmark Ridgefield to other families

It's an overall 5. I could pick apart vs. the "higher end" place she was in before: not as many amenities and activities, but Mom doesn't need the extras she had been paying for. Every person at Benchmark Ridgefield is friendly and helpful to everyone, and so patient and sweet with the residents. I would 100% recommend Benchmark Ridgefield to other families. I feel like their staff went above and beyond to get to know my mom and tailor their care to her needs.
