  • Our experience with Benchmark

    All of the staff were friendly and I thought it was a nice place for him, there were a lot of good things about it. He acted up and I do not think they handled the situation well at all. If your loved one just needs assisted living it would be a really great fit, but I would not recommend for memory care.

  • My tour review

    The one thing that made us not want to go with this community was the fact that they required the residents to get vaccinated. We did not believe that everyone should have to be vaccinated. We liked the community but that one thing pushed us to another community.

  • Smooth transition

    The day to day staff members and the residents are so friendly, warm and welcoming. However the nursing staff is not friendly at all, and do not express empathy towards the residents or other staff members. The meals are great and the dining staff is amazing. The activities director [name removed] is truly the best. He is fabulous and very caring.
