Overall experience 5 stars. Staff were polite and helpful. Care was great, more than I could have done. Activities seemed appropriate though not all residents participated. Rooms were good, with a lot of closet space. Lighting was a tad weak. We were able to bring in furniture and lamps for a taste of home. I would recommend the community to others.

We had a tour of the facility and a meeting with the tour guide. He was very knowlegable and answered our questions. We were shown a one-bedroom apartment and it seemed suitable. The faclity seemed clean, comfortable, and well managed.

Based on limited experience. Food was great, activities seemed appropriate, quarters were single rooms for sleeping with shared space for bathroom and some storage. Staff were caring and competent and were willing to discuss concerns.

A 4 will be my max rating as Robbins Brook is a first. NA is for insufficient experience. The food looks good but haven't sampled. My wife is not a regular participant of the activities. What we like the most about the community is the convenience to home and friendliness of staff. However, they need to track clothing better

Nice place, great people. The only downside to the place is the individual hvacs are old, and need replacement parts that apparently are very hard to get. So the heat is always on.

They did a great job welcoming my mother in law and integrating her into the community. Even as she became more forgetful and needed more assistance with her mobility they continued to include her in activities that she really enjoyed. She was a very social person and they kept her engaged throughout. She also loved the food!

What our family likes most about Benchmark Senior Living at Robbins Brook is the helpful staff members. Our mother in law is very happy with the different activities, the different meals that are prepared and the staff members. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would definitely recommend this community to other families looking for a place for their loved ones.

Benchmark Senior Living at Robbins Brook facilities were modern and clean. There were more men in the facility comlared to the others. It appeared to be the best fit, and also, it was my ideal choice in my town. I would recommend to other families.

Institutional food is hard to please everybody with and we do understand that, but we do wish they could acknowledge better when residents are vegetarian so that can be an improvement. However when it comes to the activities they bend over backwards for them, they are great. The overall value for the money seems to be more on the reasonable end of things we compared it to. We would definitely recommend this community to other families based on our experience so far

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. I have been satisfied with them. The relationship that I have built with the staff, director, and administrators is wonderful. They have been concerned about my loved one and my wellness. Benchmark is able to assist with medication management, hygiene, bathing, and more for my loved one. They will also make sure to get my loved one to activities to engage them with other residents. The food is really good and my loved one is happy with the soup. There is transportation provided by the community for the residents to use for doctor appointments.

Our tour at Benchmark Robbins Brook was very good. I thought it would have been an excellent place. They were just a little to far away for us. And the only reason I gave four stars was because we didn't bring our loved one, so we didn't get an opportunity to see how they would interact with her.

The community is very clean and very well presented. The staff is really fantastic. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, they have been very communicative and have reached out personally several times to give us updates. The personal contact is great here, because my father came in right at the beginning of the community lock down, the staff has done a good job of checking in with him and going the extra mile to make sure he is comfortable. In terms of activities, most have been stopped due to the virus, however they have had some limited options available for the residents outdoors. They have really gone the extra mile for both my farther and us as the family.

They did a good job keeping the community clean. I thought they could have done better with keeping my mother's room clean. The bed was never made the right way or anything. They had adequate activities.

From the moment we arrived, Mom and Dad were welcomed with open arms. Everyone from housekeeping to administrative staff have been so pleasant and helpful. The surroundings are lovely and the staff took time to answer our many questions and made us feel a part of their community. Everyone is friendly and take pride in nurturing a caring and loving environment. We were encouraged to keep in touch with nurses and staff as much as we felt was needed. Our mom and dad love the food and all the choices they have available. It was comforting to know the staff is checking on them if they do not show up for meals. Their room is nice and clean and the perfect size for them. We were able to experience one of the activities which they thoroughly enjoyed. We feel so good knowing our Mom and Dad are in such a safe, happy community with people who truly care about them. In their words, “We love it here.”

My mother is doing well since her move to this community. It is great facility with kind people. All the staff have been great. The nurses are taking good care of her, and her needs. They have also been great with their communication. Even the front desk staff is very friendly, and accommodating. We go to visit a lot, and every time we go the community, and her room are nice, and clean. She is pleased with the meals, the food is good. It has been a lovely experience so far, and this is a community I would recommend.

My Parents moved to Robbins Brook two years ago and loved it immediately. The surroundings are classy yet comfortable, and the staff is friendly helpful and engaging. After my mother passed away, they were right there for our family in every way needed and even provided further attention for my father who required a higher level of care. He has continued at Robbins Brook on his own and enjoys the new friends he forged while there. I highly recommend Robbins Brook at Acton completely and without hesitation.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Know Massachusetts’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Massachusetts’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.
Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
