5 Assisted Living Communities in Bedford, New Hampshire

Current resident

This place is an absolute dump. I am writing this as I have been up all night - freezing! No heat is on in the building, yet it is only 45 degrees out. Food is HORRIFIC. Leadership is beyond poor. DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONE HERE!

My mom is already at Carlyle Place. They're fabulous, and they go above and beyond anything you would expect from an assisted-living care place. She is there for respite but she'll probably transition into assisted living. She loves it. She said the food is fabulous, and that it keeps 'just appearing.' The staff members are really nice. They have taken some pictures of her and she is smiling, so I know she is really in a good place. The managing director there, who is a nurse by training, is out-of-this-world, and she even went to my mother's apartment to meet her before we moved in. Because of COVID, there aren't that many activities right now, but they're doing some PT and rehab with her, and she is enjoying that. Every one of the staff members is lovely and professional. It is truly like a home as opposed to an institution, and you just get a really good feeling about placing your loved one there.

Carlyle Place was neat and clean. I did not get to see a room because of the virus. The staff was friendly, helpful, and informative. I didn't even go inside any office or anything. I talked to someone outside on the porch. I was impressed with the cleanliness and the odor of it. Everything looked very well done and in good order, and I was interested and I still am interested. I might go back and ask for more information.

My visit to Bedford Falls was good. It looked more like a hotel in terms of the layout, and looked less homey in setting. The place was homey and we saw less staff wondering around, which could probably because of the time of the day. The residents that we met were happy there. It had a lobby like which you would expect at a hotel, it was nicely done but doesn't look as homey.

Bedford Falls assisted living was very nice but it's not what my parents-in-law were looking for. The people were very helpful and great. They were very thorough with the tour. The place was clean and friendly. They knew everybody's name. They had studio-type rooms.

Carlyle Place is wonderful and very impressive. I can't say enough good things about it. The staff is wonderful, very attentive, and very focused on the residents. They want my dad to do better and they want a better quality of life for him. They're very accommodating and friendly. They have a lot of musical groups who come in, little kids put on a Halloween Parade, school kids sing patriotic songs for Veterans Day and color pictures for the residents, and there are off-site activities.

Bedford Falls was beautiful. They provide a lot of activities and the cost is reasonable. They are 2- or 3-stories and my dad doesn't want to negotiate stairs and elevators, but Bedford Falls was very nice. The dining area was very beautiful.

Carlyle Place was very nice. I wouldn't have any problem putting my dad in that place. I was very pleased with what I saw. The staff was very informative. She answered all my questions and took me for a tour. I felt very comfortable. The people that I saw seemed happy. I looked at the menu, and it looked good. The people were sitting out in the front porch where they had some really nice music on. The activity coordinator was painting the women's fingernails, which I thought was nice. They were all very happy.

Bedford Falls was a nice facility. They have a nice dining area and the apartments were a little bigger than what the others offered. The location was convenient, but it was in a business complex versus being in a place where there's a lot of trees and land around it. From that perspective, it wasn't quite as nice. The people were very nice. The inside of the building was well cared for. The person during the tour was very good, gave us her full attention, and spent a lot of time with us. The residents said the food was good.
