Resident & family reviews

I highly recommend Berkshire Commons to anyone who needs personal or memory care. My mother was a resident for close to 5 years . Most recently, they effectively coordinated my mother's end of life with Serenity Hospice. Both organizations did an amazing job. I am so grateful for their unending compassion, dignity, medical care and family support.

My wife is well taken care of . She seems happy with staff and activities. She is always dressed properly and room is clean and tidy. Staff is friendly and welcoming with a family feel . I feel secure when leaving that she is taken care of properly . I can no longer provide all her needs myself and Berkshire commons fills that requirement .

Recently, My father-in-law moved into BC, and Ashlee and staff couldn't have been better helping him and us with this life transition. The facility is beautiful, my father-in-law loves his new space, and our family can now breathe a little easier knowing that he is safe and well taken care of going forward. Highly recommended!!

I deliver medical equipment to Berkshire Commons on a regular basis and the staff is always so pleasant and helpful. I need to single out Zara(receptionist). It is nice to walk through the front door and know she always greets everyone with a friendly smile and kind words.

Just moved our mom into Berkshire Commons, and the experience has been wonderful so far. Sherry and Ashlee have been incredibly supportive every step of the way, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Since we live out of state, their help has meant even more to us and they’ve truly gone above and beyond. The staff is compassionate, attentive, and genuinely caring. We’re so grateful to have found such a great place for her.

I am very happy with the help and care i am receiving at Berkshire Commons beginning with Ashlee Bear who worked with me every step of the way with patience, understanding and guidance in my search for my Sister's care. The nurses and aide staff have been wonderful and attentive to my sister’s physical and emotional needs making her feel calm, comfortable and safe. This includes the front desk assistant and all of the program directors who are welcoming caring and kind. I also want to thank the amazing maintenance director Ed who went above and beyond to have our room ready for us at such short notice. I am very thankful we made the move to Berkshire Commons.

From the very start when we met with Ashlee, we were impressed with how engaged the staff was with all of the residents. We loved loved loved the room layouts and for our parents moving in as a couple after living in their rancher home for over 35 years, space was so important to them. After moving in, their new apartment already feels like home and the care they are getting is incredible and lifts a weight off of our shoulders (their children) when trying to give them the best care and juggle our own families at the same time. We would recommend Berkshire Commons to anyone who is looking to provide a peaceful and loving place for your parent(s) to continue living life to their fullest regardless of their health issues as this place will provide the best they can to help make that happen!!

Berkshire Commons is a very nice clean senior assistant living facility.The staff is very friendly and helpful.When looking for a place to put my husband’s sister and brother-in-law, I reached out to Berkshire Commons for information about their facility. I was directed to a wonderful person by the name of Ashlie, after talking with her she suggested that we come in for a tour of the facility.While talking with Ashlie is was very obvious to us that she was very knowledgeable and compassionate about her job and you could tell that she cares about the residence of Berkshire Commons.
