Recent reviews of Assisted Living in Belen, NM
The Woodmark at Uptown in Albuquerque, NM
4.8

Based on our families experience, we were frustrated that all the required paperwork had to be completed by hand rather than a word doc to edit. There were a lot of duplicate questions on many different forms. It was also frustrating that we could not get our loved one moved in on the weekend. We would have loved it if we could have rented the furniture from them or a partner. However, everyone was incredibly friendly, nice and caring. We would highly recommend.

GoodLife Senior Living Los Lunas
5.0

After touring several different assisted living facilities and being told they cannot accommodate someone who needs a two-person lift, my husband and I toured Goodlife Senior Living. We met with [name removed], the manager, and she was the first person to sit with us and tell us that everything can be worked out. She treated us with empathy and humanity during a very stressful time. The facility itself is very clean and feels more like a home than a facility. The private rooms are large and inviting with a private bath.

Willowwood Assisted Living in Albuquerque, NM
4.9

The staff members at Willowood Assisted Living are so great and friendly and our loved one is really well taken care of. He always looks clean and is being fed really well. We have absolutely no complaints or see any red flags with this community. His favorite thing is sitting outside in the courtyard to enjoy the fresh air. They have people come and play music for the residents. They have exercises, and what we really liked is before our loved one moved in they already had a dresser and a bed for him. The community does not feel clinical at all, not sterile but like a home. Also communication is very important to our family and they communicate with us about everything no matter how big or small something may be.
