My father-in-law is at the Villa and has no complaints. The atmosphere is light and relaxed, and the psw employees are polite and friendly. I've chatted with some residents there, and they had only good things to say. The owner and managing director work very hard for the good of the residents. The Christmas party in December was very nice.

The owners are very involved and are often onsite. They are great. One is a doctor and the other is a pharmacist. The staff (and the owners) is very caring and empathetic. They treat my father like a family member. My father loves the food and he has a very nice comfortable room. He is very happy there and that provides us a lot of comfort.

My mom came here, unexpectedly, in the middle of Covid, right after spending Christmas in the hospital, under very stressful and difficult circumstances. When other residences we contacted didn't even call us back, the team at Elmsmere Villa helped us through the entire transition with a care and efficiency that was entirely reassuring. Since then, every interaction with the staff, including the owner, has further demonstrated Elmsmere Villa's dedication to provide Mom with dignified care, respect, kindness and sincere affection. Over the months, we have had a steady set of experiences that have affirmed our decision to choose Elmsmere Villa and while it isn't easy for anyone to leave their home, Mom has settled in and is doing better and better all the time. Our sincerest thanks to everyone there!
