Chelmsford Crossing is the place for us

I would rate it 5 stars. My mom has had some health concerns off and on, and the nursing staff there has been very diligent in informing me and following up. She has a studio apartment which is spacious and easy for her to navigate. The desk staff always talks to her, the directors are very involved, the restaurant service is kind and courteous and the menu is varied. Mom loves the seafood and the ice cream! Just a wonderful experience overall, and the building is well kept and lovely!

Review for Benchmark Senior Living at Chelmsford Crossings

Genuinely friendly and caring staff, tremendous meals (especially breakfast ??!). Full interesting activities schedule all day long. I was there for 2 months while recovering from surgery, but the longer term residents all seem to enjoy their time at Benchmark Chelmsford Crossings. A wonderful interactive experience!

Review for Benchmark Senior Living at Chelmsford Crossings

The staff is terrific, and the room sizes seem just about right. My mom is in a studio and it's a good balance between space and cost. The food is decent, could be more creative but I don't know another place where it might be uniquely better. My mom does not typically engage much in common activities but she has been to some at this community which means they must be doing a good job gently encouraging her, which I appreciate.

5 for all! This is a wonderful place to be! Yes, I often do recommend this community to other families! I try to always greet people who are touring to let them know how welcoming and fun it is to be here! I came here with my precious husband [name removed] and when he passed I decided to stay. I'm happy that I did. This is a great place for Mom!

Very Impressed

It's been a tough transition for my mom to move there, but it's a great place for her to be. Her family knows she's safe there and the people who work there take pride in their jobs. Mom has made some friends, she likes the food , her room and the people who work there. She knows she's safe there and that's a comfort too!

Highly recommend

My mother really likes living there and I would highly recommend it to anyone who asks. Everyone is incredibly friendly, the place is really nice and we feel mom is safe there. Even though my mom really liked the food, we find it interesting that she has told us sometimes they run out of things as simple as a baked potato. There have been a few other things, baked potato struck me funny to run out of. I'm sure not to be wasteful of food they only make so many and first ones at the dining room get dibs. While I commented and only gave a 4, my mother loves the food there! My brother and I find it amusing when she tells us when they run out of something and she may not be the one asking someone she sits with.

Highly recommend, A+ service

All around it was a great experience. The personality of the staff is what really stuck out, they are very helpful and make you feel like you are at home. The food was fantastic, they had a lot of great activities, and the value was phenomenal. I would highly recommend Benchmark to others! (try their chocolate chip cookies, they are TO DIE FOR).

Call A Place for Mom First

My loved one loves the food, is very happy, and loves the activities. They were good, with getting my loved one oriented into their new space, and getting them adjusted. They could do better with communicating/explaining to the family about what they're expectations. I'm glad I called A Place for Mom, it was much easier to get in contact with places, and sort things out. It made things much easier to coordinate.

When I toured this community the staff was very nice as well as the community itself, This was my second choice, however the other facility we looked at was just closer and I wanted my loved one to be closer to me.

Caring Staff

We moved mom to Chelmsford Crossing 2 1/2 months ago. She has been more energetic, and upbeat since the move. The food is good and the care is excellent. All the staff from the receptionist, chef, manger, housekeeper, nurse and aides ALL care for the residents.

Very Supportive on Short Notice

My family needed urgent help raising the level of health care for a family member who was unable to live alone with rapidly declining health. The disease my family member was afflicted with became very aggressive and we looked for relief of the situation. The staff at Chelmsford Crossings was very supportive, clearly explained their services and demonstrated their commitment to providing high level of support within their community. The empathy displayed towards our needs has had a profound influence on our decision. Once our family member moved in we found comfort in the level of care provided. I would highly recommend considering Chelmsford Crossings as a step to increase the level of care for a loved one...

Fantastic Group of people

My friend and neighbor with no family needs changes after some health issues. I search for places that would take great care of him while he healed in hopes of returning home. The staff at Chelmsford Crossings were wonderful and always made him feel special. After 8 months ( name removed) was well enough to return home, unfortunately his health deteriorated and his care at home would no longer be able to live on his own one year later. The Chelmsford Crossings welcomed (name removed) back with open arms and soon realized that this was the perfect spot for him to stay. I feel like the entire staff goes above and beyond, the food is top notch, and the facility day to day experience has been a pleasant one both for(name removed)and myself. I highly recommend Chelmsford Crossing to anyone that wants a top notch facility with people that care.

Benchmark Senior Living was a nice facility but it was smaller and less modern looking. The staff were all very friendly and gave us a great tour and the level of care was there, it was just not the best fit we felt for our loved one.
