Community Reviews
Peace of Mind and Better Health
reviewed on: 03/15/2014 by psicariSince moving into the Hermitage, my Mom has improved significantly in many ways. Being "forced" to eat the majority of her meals in the main dining room is a major contributor to this. First, she's eating more nutritionally balanced meals which is helping with her energy levels. The moving about from her unit to the dining and back is creating a level of physical activity that had been fading and causing other health related issue. This subtle form of exercise has been a big improvement. The social element that comes from both the dining arrangement and the other residents has been good for her mental well-being. She's also been participating in the exercises class, which is not typical for her at all, but again, has been extremely positive. The staff is very caring, friendly, and attentive. All in all, it's been a great experience for all involved.
A very nice community. Eve...

We are very much satisfied so far.
reviewed on: 04/23/2015 by AnonymousWe are very much satisfied so far. They are doing a pretty good job with the food, I eat there a lot, and so does my family and they enjoy it. It probably is a little more seasoned that most elderly folks like, though.
Responsive, attentive staff!
reviewed on: 03/03/2016 by AnonymousI moved my mother to The Hermitage from a different community. Things are going great here, she is doing really well. I like it very much. The staff is very attentive and responsive, my mother falls often and they are quick to assist her. Everyone is nice. The head nurse on her floor is delightful. The food is great, she had lost weight before coming to The Hermitage and she has been eating better there. There are a lot of activities. She is in the skilled nursing area, but we are able to take her to other areas so she is able to participate in all sorts of activities the different areas have. There are good musicians who come in and play guitar. There is a hair salon. She usually eats in her area of the community but we sometimes take her to the main dining room that is more formal and it is a little treat for her.
