June 6, 2024Hello Kathy, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. We are so glad to hear about your experience with our community. Our dedicated associates take great pride in providing the very best experience possible and your compliments are a highlight for our team. Thank you for sharing, and thank you for choosing The Village at East Farms!
My dad lived in Florida and I live in Connecticut and he developed dementia and I was traveling back-and-forth every 3 to 4 weeks for about six months. We tried to keep Dad in Florida, but with his dementia we wanted to keep him close to us. I have visited many different assisted-living and memory care facilities, both in Florida and Connecticut and I can truly say that the Village at East Farms is a very caring community. The staff is truly amazing and they care about their residents. I feel like I’m at home when I visit my Dad. They really listen to your concerns and work to help both the residents and family member achieve their goals. I would highly recommend them. Also thank you to A Place For Mom for helping me throughout this difficult process. They were amazing and truly caring.

My loved one is currently a resident at The Village at East Farms and everything has been just great for her at this facility so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The staff, activities, food and value for cost are also great. The care services are excellent and over the top. An example of the over the top care: If an Amazon order is not right, they do the return to Kohl's for me. I'm beyond happy that my loved one is not only getting good care, but everyone there tells me that she is enjoying her life doing lots of activities. That makes me so happy with my choice. I would highly recommend The Village at East Farms to others.

Based on the experience our family has had so far with The Village at East Farms, it is a great place for your family members that your care about! The staff members there are great to work with, they are very patient and caring. The community is clean and the food prepared is good. However we do wish it costed a little less, but it is cheaper than most similar places.

My family member is very happy with the activities and with the care she's getting at The Village. The facility itself is excellent. They could just improve on the food (she would like to see better quality).

We chose The Village at East Farms because of the convenient location and it was not far from her home she was familiar with the area. The friendliness of the staff is so incredible, even the residents are extremely friendly as well. It has been a great experience and we would definitely recommend them to others looking.

My loved one really enjoys, the interaction with other people. She engages in social activites-, and was alone before being around others. She really enjoys bingo and exercise classes. Overall, it has been a positive experience. There was an issue with care services, which included two showers per week, and she was only gettinf one but that issue has been resolved. Overall, I am very happy.

This place is awesome. The staff make you feel like you're part of the family. My loved one doesn't require a lot of care at this point, but they check on him all the time. The facility is really nice - it's like a resort. He's not a huge fan of the food. He says it has flavor but is overcooked.

This community is an excellent place for your mom or any family member that needs assisted living. My loved one loves it here. They have activities like bingo, movies, getting hair and nails done and more for the residents to do.

For our family's tastes, it was too big, and more expensive than other places we looked at. They had a butler service where you could have a butler assigned to your loved one, which was an extra exorbitant charge. The facility was very high end and very nice though if you can afford it.
We toured The Village and it is a very beautiful facility. The room sizes here are also great size, but that is about all I can say as we did not sample the food or anything.
My father likes it here. They are always on top of things. The staff make sure my loved one is ready when I have to take him to doctor appointments. Everyone is very friendly and treats him well. They still have their safety protocols in place for the pandemic, even after the residents have been vaccinated.

My mom moved into the Village of East Farms a little over 4 years ago and I was bracing myself for her complaining that it’s not her home and bad food but I figured in time she would settle in but I was wrong. The entire staff was so welcoming and courteous she felt at home almost immediately. They got her out of her room and introduced her to people who were new there too and who have been there awhile. And 4 plus years later the staff still treats her with dignity and respect. After that amount of time I’m still impressed how they all know her and what she likes to eat. All of the staff has been very helpful to me as needed. If anyone is looking for an assisted living facility I highly recommend The Village at East Farms.

The staff is extremely friendly and did the best they could during covid. They treated my aunt with kindness and respect and that was important to us. I would recommend this community to others.

My loved one's care staff was amazing for them! The community was reasonably priced. When the pandemic hit, the administration did what they had to do, to keep the residents safe. They ended up shutting the community done. I was the only one managing the care for my loved one. They only allowed outside visits. If the weather was too hot, or if it was raining out they would cancel the visits. I asked the community for a back up plan, and they never would give me an answer for this. They only allowed one visit once a week for each resident outside. The administration didn't communicate to staff very well, and there would be problems with the staff and the family. The staff would follow the rules they knew about, and not the new rules from the administration team. I was taking my loved one out of the community and they didn't want to allow me to come in to get their items. They only wanted to only allow the movers. I ended walking in to get my loved one's items. The community is outdated. I feel the community wouldn't pass health code standards. They have a dorm size refrigerator on the floor in the apartments for the residents. This causes the residents to have to bend over and potentially causes mishaps with safety. The walk in showers only have wooden benches, and not shower chairs for residents. I ended up bringing in a shower chair for my loved one to use.
