Wonderful environment

Staff were so friendly and caring. They called me mom by her name the first day and made her feel welcome. Room was clean and well stocked ( respitestay) When she had a medical issue they were quick to respond and provide EMS her info for smooth transition. All staff from housekeeping to administer were great. Food was good and dining room open all day for dining. While she didn't do many of the activities, the calendar was full of various things.

Our experience

What we like the most about the community is That it is small and feels like a community. Also, there is the availability of transportation to appointment through Valley Farm as well as the transit authority that will pick you up right there!

Welcomed my parents

My parents moved in 4 months ago. From the first day, staff has been welcoming and accommodating. Activities are accessible and spread out throughout the day. and the special activities are a nice touch. Many dining choices are available.

Family member living in community

The Residence at Valley Farm is an outstanding community. Everyone is warm, welcoming and goes out of their way to make you feel at home. The move in process was seamless, the dining and activity options are well planned. My sister was the resident and over the course of the months, required increased assistance, (which was delivered in her apartment), the team was professional and caring in helping to negotiate the next steps, into Memory Care. Any questions or concerns were answered or addressed within a timely m
