My mom is at the Anchor Bay at Greenwich. She really liked it right off the bat. It was very aesthetically pleasing, very clean, warm, and welcoming. The staff was all super helpful and very nice. You can tell they really listen to everybody and care about their residents. It just seemed like a perfect fit. It looks really nice, and it's a smaller community. You could also tell that they're going to pay attention to the individual a little more. We were able to get it in just a couple of weeks. It was very quick. The sales and marketing director, Alison, was very helpful. She was text messaging me if I had questions after hours, and she would get right back to me. Communication has been great. They helped me get in touch with a couple of resources and things that I needed to follow up on my end. There's also an actual executive chef. They do a lot of seasonal menus and everything's fresh. The chef actually meets with the folks at the assisted living wing once a week to talk about the menu and plan some of the things that they would like to see. They have five or six activities planned every single day for the memory care folks. They have two staff members that are in charge of all of the activities. One specifically focuses on the memory care facility itself. What's nice about the activities is that they're all throughout the day, and they're all designed to hit all the different elements that would be helpful for people with memory loss. Some of them are more towards physical/body activity and some are geared towards engagement of the mind. Then they also have the ones that will engage your spiritual side. That's every day, but then they also have weekly special activities planned. It's her third day there, and they had just gone out on a shopping trip where they purchased toys for the holidays. On Sunday, they're going to a Christmas tree lighting ceremony. We were extremely surprised at the quality of the place compared to its price. We were really extremely happy to find them because all of the places are extremely expensive. This one was actually on the lower side of all the places in Rhode Island. For the services you get, it's really good.

We chose Anchor Bay at Greenwich because other places didn't have a memory care locked ward. The staff member who gave me the tour was very attentive. The room my mom is in has already been remodelled and it's quite nice. She loves the food and she says it's great. They have daily activities. They get on the bus and go out to places, and they also have activities in the community daily. The price is a little expensive.
