Review for Commonwealth Senior Living at Salisbury

I am very impressed. I had a question and the director came to my cottage to provide the answer. Love the personal attention and care. The people in independent living are very friendly. It has been a really great experience. I certain would recommend it. I really like the fact it is outside of Salisbury. It is quiet and pleasant.

Honestly, with the exception of not having luck with his diabetes management, we love everything. The staff members are very friendly. They have many activities, which he loves.

Assisted Living vs Skilled Nursing

Positives: clean, bright, elegant dining area, cheerful staff. Many activities. Negatives: Disconnect between sales and medical staff. My sister-in-law was not a good candidate for Assisted Living, as she still has nursing needs such as being dressed and changed, unable to move from bed to wheelchair, etc. According to the staff at her previous facility, they accurately advised Commonwealth of her needs and condition, and informed commonwealth that she was not a good fit for Assisted Living, she needed long term s

Review for Commonwealth Senior Living at Salisbury

I am not happy at all. The facility is beautiful as is the room. Quite a few of the caregivers seem to have a chip on their shoulders. You might want to do some research before choosing this facility. I regret choosing this facility for my loved one.
