My mother was a 2 year resident and received all the attention and care that we hoped for. Staff were unfailingly helpful as when she had to be twice taken to the hospital. Staff accompanied her and stayed with her until I could arrive 1 hour later. Staff kept me apprised of my mother's condition and was helpful when we decided to call in hospice.

I moved my mother here after she had a disastrous experience at a nursing home. She needed to be at the nursing home, but when she became well enough to be discharged, they did not tell us. Prior to that she was at a different assisted living facility that has similar capabilities to The Kensington. Our experience at the Kensington has been excellent. They made every effort to make my mother feel welcome. They are taking good care of her, and unlike the prior two facilities, she has no complaints! She likes the food, and enjoys the entertainment and happy hour!

The property is nice and they do have a small garden area, but it is urban and I agree mom would prefer something with more land. I also thought their memory care was crowded and expensive (many shared rooms, which I am certain mom would not like). Not likely a solution.

It looked beautiful but was even more expensive than the one we went with. The woman there was very helpful she was ready to go home when we arrived but she took us in the room anyway and told us what to look for even though we couldn't afford it there.

The director was very impressive they were just wonderful. She took the time to explain every little detail. I felt like the residents here needed a higher level of care then what we were looking for. The community was very nice and the staff was very friendly. It felt like a luxury hotel.

Ms.Rosenberg very professional. Staff friendly.Limited outdoor space,view of garage. We felt the 'Studio' was small, more like a bedroom. Lovely surroundings & decor overall. I'm afraid it may be out of our price range once the fees for assisted living levels added.
