About Rockland Place

Rockland Place boasts a red-brick, colonial-style exterior and resides in a peaceful, wooded area among green trees of all sizes. The retirement community offers assisted living and two different levels of memory care to help ensure residents’ unique lifestyles and needs are supported. In this engaging atmosphere, residents are offered healthy meals, customized care, and energizing activities to help ensure they lead their desired lives. This multi-story community is conveniently located across the street from a senior care facility. It is also close to many restaurants, parks, and an expansive country club. Plus, Wilmington’s downtown is a mere 10 minutes away, offering a variety of entertainment options. Residents can shop local boutiques, explore historic sites, attend live events, and more. At Rockland Place, the staff will happily accommodate residents’ needs — no matter their level of care. Assisted living residents benefit from leading a life free of daily worries, such as housekeeping and transportation. Around-the-clock caregivers are also readily available to assist with daily living activities and personal care needs. Memory care residents can choose from two programs — Our Place and Pathways. The former accommodates residents newly diagnosed with memory loss issues while the latter offers a safe environment with a higher level of care that promotes resident engagement.

Peace of mind

They have kept me well informed about how my mom is doing, which gives me peace of mind since I’m in Texas and she is in Delaware. The staff is always helpful and responsive whenever I call with questions. My mom says that everyone treats her well, and she enjoys the food. Overall, I appreciate the care and communication they provide.

Friendly staff, safe and nice community

The staff are amazing (especially [name removed], [name removed]& [name removed]). But everyone I've encountered has been lovely. The rooms are great. Everything is clean and the food that I have tried has been delicious. I think the only thing I would say could be improved is timely communication.

our families experience

5 for everything...I was very impressed. The actives and day trips , always something to do. Church services offered also is really nice. The in house medical care was very important because my mom doesn't get around well. The alcove unit was a perfect size. they went out of their way for the move in...coming from new York, we had to move in on a Sunday.

Relief

Primarily small size is why we chose them. I would recommend. They do a really good job of managing expectations. Since nobody really ever "wants" to move into assisted living, they strive to offer options, redirect or focus on positivity for all of the residents. Many residents are at different stages and the Rockland staff seems to have a handle on making everyone happy. Teamwork at Rockland is exceptional.

Response from the community

Thank you, RW! We’re thrilled to hear that you appreciate our small size and the efforts of our dedicated staff. Creating a positive environment for all residents is our top priority, and it’s wonderful to know our teamwork is making a difference. Your recommendation means a lot to us!
