    Exceptional care. My mother has resided at the Dartmouth location for over a year and has received wonderful care and service from all staff. The building has an an elegant yet cozy environment with beautiful artwork located throughout. My mother could not be happier. A hidden gem.

    My parents live at the Berkeley Dartmouth, and they love it! The staff treat them like respected and beloved family members/friends. The activities coordinator is lively and always engaged in creating opportunities for exercise, stimulation, fun and social engagement. My parents have flourished in ways I wouldn’t have thought possible since living there. I can’t recommend it more highly on everything that counts.
