The Arbors at Amherst has been wonderful, especially with the whole process as it was happening they were great at explaining everything. On move in day the staff were all super accommodating and helpful with getting her room all set up for her. They offer a lot of activities for the residents so that has been nice. It is expensive but we think it is worth it for the peace of mind that we have.
My father was reluctant to move here after his fall . He has flourished here he absolutely loves it!! The staff is amazing from the top down. They gently encouraged him to socialize and he’s now the mayor lol he loves everyone and everything about his living arrangements. I love the peaceful feeling knowing he’s happy and safe.
It's a great experience. We picked this community, because of the good reputation and they are nice to deal with. It was close to me, and my daughter. I would recommend to others.
