Commonwealth Senior Living Review

They are very caring people and always willing to step in if you or your love one needs help with anything

Beware

They truly sell the impression of a happy and committed staff. They are very good at exposing the right residents to potential residents. Of course, that is their job. If the family of the loved one who moves in is not a constant in the residence, both day and night, a lot will be missed in your loved one's care. We did not receive the care we guaranteed, and that's even with us watching. Food was subpar. Management was worse. I would NOT recommend this place, not even to my worst enemy.

Not Recommended for Parkinson's

Facility seems fine for those without neurological conditions, but Staff is not neurologically trained/experienced enough, nor has enough patience for effective care of those with Parkinson's

Review for Commonwealth Senior Living at Leigh Hall

We understand they may be up for sale, so that's a consideration for future clients. I can say she really hates the food. It's up for sale - tread carefully.

Commonwealth Senior Living

This is not a place that I would recommend and I do not believe that you should be recommending this place either. They do not stand up to their promises nor do they have the staff to care for the residence there.

Family combined efforts to take care of a loved one

We chose Commonwealth Senior Living at Leigh Hall because of the openness of the facility. It didn't seem seem like a skilled facility or assisted facility… It was more in line with what we were looking for. And at time of admission staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. FOOD has been excellent. One has gained friends and weight since being there. Staff is good now too. We have been pleased with the experience so far.
