Benchmark Senior Living at The Commons in Lincoln

Benchmark Senior Living at The Commons in Lincoln sits in the quiet countryside of Lincoln, Massachusetts, and you'll see right away it's built to offer different kinds of care all in one place, so if someone starts off living more independently and then needs a little help or more support later on, they don't have to move far or worry about changing everything around them. The campus is a part of a larger Benchmark Senior Living network, and people know the staff there for being friendly and helpful, and families mention the activities and food get good reviews too. People can pick from independent living if they just want a nice place with other folks their age, or they can choose assisted living if they need help with daily things. There's memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia in a secured environment-there are 32 private and semi-private memory care units, all with a secured courtyard, and the campus itself is built with dementia care in mind, using adaptive technology to help people stay safe and as independent as they can be. Skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation are on hand for folks bouncing back after a hospital stay or who need daily help, and respite care is an option for families needing short-term support. The facility has nurses on staff, offers nutritious meals, transportation and plenty of parking, and you can see pictures of the dining, activity rooms, and common areas if you take a tour or look online, which helps people and their families get a clear picture of what everyday life really looks like here. The Commons aims to make sure residents get treated like individuals, so services and activities can be adjusted to fit a person's needs or interests if that's what's needed, and there's always something going on to keep people engaged or just let them enjoy a quiet day in the scenic grounds, and since it's a continuing care retirement community, residents can stay settled and age in place, no need for big moves as things change.
