I can't say enough about how impressed we are with this facility. My Dad was so happy after he toured Dover Place that we cancelled our other tours and signed the paperwork. He is moving in on [date removed]! The staff are excellent and the facility was clean, well cared for, and beautiful!

Nice Facility!!

I thought this place was a really nice facility with a lot of great amenities for all of the residents. They did a good job keeping the community well maintained and very clean in all the rooms. They had a wide open floor plan that was easy to navigate through. It was just not the right location for my family and I in the end decision.

Friendly staff!

Dover Place was also a nice community. Everyone there was friendly and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. It was just a bit too expensive and we chose to not move her in the Dover area.

Not impressed!

My first impression of Heritage of Dover was that the community did not feel like home. The staff were very kind and addressed all of my concerns. The community was clean throughout. The feel I got from the community just made me feel like I wouldn't want to live there. This was not the place for my wife.

Lovely community, very welcoming - Michele is a long-time employee, extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our many questions. It was also noted that she personally knew & warmly addressed ALL the residents by name as we toured, which spoke volumes. This is our first experience with AL communities, and were quite impressed with everything (quality/selection of food, amenities, room, treatment of loved ones, etc.). We toured the community first as a family, then had Dad come enjoy a complimentary lunch and tour. Dad agreed to stay for a week-long respite to 'try it out' and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. All the staff are awesome, esp Nancy & Kyla in Activities. They were truly committed to building a relationship with Dad, sitting with him to gently gather interest information & then personally inviting him each day to programs of possible interest. Their communication with the family was A+!! Overall, Heritage really listened to our feedback and truly made Dad's stay a positive and pleasant one - we'll be back for sure!

Good Decision

I am so glad we chose Heritage in Dover for my dad. He is very happy and cared for. It is a small community where everyone knows my dad and with good meals and plenty of activities he is very content. I don't have to worry that he is safe and looked after

New resident

Our resident has been there a little over a month and is getting into a nice routine. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They have many activities that they encourage her to participate in, good food and all areas are clean and tidy. If there is any con, it would be the cost. I was told the cost typically goes up 5% per year.

A Place for Mom has scored Dover Place 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
