September 5, 2024Thank you Susan for your kind review! We're so happy to hear that you felt the warmth and care at Anchor Bay at Pocasset. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we truly appreciate it! Warmly, Alison
The nursing staff is very focused on the residents, and accommodating of the different personalities. The activity staff does a nice job involving the residents, though the types of activities seem limited. The food options are also limited, and not very high-quality. The directorial staff is not helpful or upfront with the families once they are receiving the monthly costs. They seem to be all about making a profit. I want families to know that if they have conversations about the directorial or sales staff agreeing to something they would do for the resident in the future, that the family get the promise in writing. For the past year, we were just taking Anchor Bay's word that they would "work with us". We definitely should have had had them put a pen-to-paper of their promise.

The alleged existence of a residents' band which exists but the leader didn't allow my brother to participate apparently because he didn't want to risk being upstaged. Not a great reason but that influenced my brother's decision.

February 20, 2024We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience! Providing responsive and empathetic care is our priority. Thank you for acknowledging our dedication to exceptional service at Anchor Bay at Pocasset. Warmly, Alison
Anchor Bay at Pocasset had the three levels of senior living - independent, assisted, and memory care. The nursing director, Connie, was instrumental in deciding where my aunt needed to be. My aunt is able to have a single unit, with her own bathroom. She enjoys going to the dining room for meals or the lounge for activities, but is able to have her own time in her room, surrounded by her special things.

Your compliments will be passed on to Connie and the team. Thank you once more, and we extend our best wishes to you. Warm regards, Kathleen
The experience has been good for my loved ones and family, overall. The community seems to be understaffed and this is the reason for my rating of a 3. My loved ones have experienced a lot of delays in getting requests resolved that they have spoken to the community about.

This was a good community. It seemed to be a little smaller than what we were looking for. Also the location was further away than where we wanted our loved one to be. It was also not as up to date as another community that we went to look at.

This community has friendly personnel and residents. There is always something to do and this is just a good place to live. There are work out programs 5 days a week. They also have a chorus that sings from time to time, entertainment that comes in a few times a week, card games, and board games, all kinds of things for the residents to do.

We chose Anchor Bay because of the proximity as well as their quick response time. The staff were super helpful with getting everything set up and moved in. The room size for assisted living was on the smaller side, but it worked for what she needed at the time. I would recommend to others looking.

The activities are opening back up, we can say that have done a fantastic job and doing their best getting the activities back. It is certainly a clean and beautiful place, physically the building and rooms are very nice. However, the people there have just been so easy to work with, and they sincerely have our loved ones best interest in mind.

We chose Anchor Bay at Pocasset at the time because of the cost of the facility. The apartment sizes here are really nice. It is hard to give an assessment right now because of the restrictions from covid that are still in place. So far my mom has been happy with it so I am happy.
