FABULOUS! It is so warm and inviting, filled with happy residents enjoying activities. The personalized care and attentiveness, and the time they spend with us as family members, is remarkable. Valley Farm turned our uncertainty into the best decision we could have made.
I think ALL assisted living communities are crazy expensive. Overall I'd highly recommend Valley Farm.
My mother really likes it
The facility is clean, organized, and the staff genuinely care about the residents.
Everything is amazing, but the price is astronomical.
An update (May 9, 2024)
My mother passed away a few weeks ago, and now is an appropriate time to acknowledge the wonderful support she received in her end of life transition.
The nursing staff were very communicative and responsive to my mother's medication needs. Kudos to Donna, Mimi, and Mildred for always being there for each of the changes over the last few months.
Additionally, the aides, continued to provide very caring support as if they were family until the very end, Liliana in particular.
We would highly recommend Residence at VF for any family looking for assisted living services, and would recommend to approach the services provided in a collegial way, for it takes both VF and the family to work together, to maximize the experience.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The aides have been absolutely wonderful in their support of my mother in the Reflections (Memory Care) area. They treat her as if my mother was their mother. From taking care of her everyday living needs like bathing, cleaning, to always engaging her in conversation. Moreover, their desire to promote her participation in the daily activities provided to all of the residents. In particular, kudos go out to Lilliana, Nubi and Alex, who go above an beyond what my family would have expected from support aides. I am thankful we have decided to utilize Residence at Valley Farms services and the overall environment that my mother now experiences.
The staff is nice but many times they are short staffed. Many nights I gave my mother a shower myself and got her dressed in her pajamas.
They served French fries a lot instead of vegetables. The food was not very nutritious. She would have hot dogs frequently. She never ate hot dogs.
We definitely found a community village that makes us feel like family. Christina Ohlson and the rest of the group are beyond amazing. The care and compassion is beyond amazing. Any concern that there are, they are met with an email or a phone call in a timely manner. Def the best choice was a family made for our mom
God bless

I think God every day my mother is in this facility. Iâve seen many places. Iâm very much at peace with the residence at Valley Farm in Ashland MA. The staff goes out of their way to be helpful and kind.. the food is exceptional. The chef is one of a kind just like eating at a five-star restaurant. Thank you everybody for your professional attention and help. Susan Turner.
Had to move mom into assisted living and found this gem. The staff is amazing. They are kind and sympathetic to your needs. We are treated like family. There is no lack of help or care . The dinning room is like going to a restaurant and the food is fantastic. They have activities schedule everyday. And family members are welcome at any time. We are very blessed to have found a place like the Residence at Valley Farm in Ashland.
My sister lives at The Residence. It has been wonderful. The staff are so kind and helpful. They get to know each resident and make them feel at home. The food is delicious and very healthy. The building is lovely, nicely decorated, many common areas, always very clean. Social programs are plentiful and engaging. We couldn't be happier!
I am so pleased with the care The Residence at Valley Farm is giving my family member. The management staff, nurses and caregivers are responsive and communicative, the activities are plentiful and engaging, and the food and service staff are both top notch. In addition, I can count on a warm, friendly greeting from the folks at the front desk with each visit.
I can attend to my own affairs knowing my loved one is in kind, competent hands.
My mom has been living at the Residence at Valley Farm for about 2.1/2 years. The staff has always treated my mom with dignity, care and respect. The Staff has always been open and honest, with what's going on at the Residence and how my mom is doing. We couldn't have selected a better place for mom.
I find the care of my elderly mother at Valley Farms has been top shelf! The facility is clean, they have many activities for the residents, and the staff is fabulous!
However, what really stands out is the people who work there! From the administration, maintenance staff, medical professionals, the chefs who prepare the meals, and most importantly, the people who care every day for the residents- they always keep their residents care as their primary focus.
What really stands out is the staffâs personal care of the residents. They really do spend time to know each resident and be cognizant of thier individual needs, personalities and the family members who visit. They donât just care for their physical needs, but theyâre emotional and mental needs as well⌠When I have gone in the memory care unit and ask the staff members how my mother is doing⌠they all can tell you if she is having a good day, or perhaps acting a little out of character etc., and give specific instances they have observed. I know my siblings, and I couldnât be any happier with the care and attention that my mother gets from the people who work there.
The people are always upbeat and helpful, and usually do it with a smile!
I have told friends about Valley Farms, and have recommended Valley Farms for their families. I would recommend the care at Valley Farms to any people exploring options for their loved ones!
My mother has been a resident for over a year and it has been a wonderful living situation. The staff is so helpful and friendly and she has made so many new friendships. Itâs so comforting to know she is living in such a safe and caring environment.
The staff at Residence at Valley Farms go above and beyond to make each resident feel at home. My mom receives amazing care from all of the staff starting with the front office with Christine Brown to the management with Brad and all of the caretakers and nursing staff in the memory care unit. My family are so grateful knowing that our mom is in good hands. I can not thank them all enough. đ
The team at RVF are fantastic! They treat my Mom like family, I am grateful and appreciative of all they do!
The Residence at Valley Farm is a wonderful living option for seniors looking for the comforts of home, amenities of a nice hotel, activities to keep busy and a caring staff. With a variety of options from independent living up to full memory care you can tailor your needs to the service options and levels offered. My mom moved in about 18 months ago and everyone was so welcoming which really helped her settle in. The restaurant has a diverse and delicious menu. My mom started in the assisted living area and as time progressed she needed to move to memory care. The staff was enormously helpful both in identifying when the time for this transition was approaching as well as ensuring it went smoothly. The memory care area provides numerous activities and staff that work to get the residents engaged. Our family has been so happy with âThe Valleyâ as we call it, knowing my mom is in a safe supportive environment and receiving the care and attention she needs. We visit multiple times each week and the facility is always clean and the staff is so welcoming to us. Thank you Valley Farm!
Very kind, caring and professional staff! Mom at 88, first moved in to Assisted Living. As her needs changed, the staff worked kindly with us to move her to Memory Care, which was indeed a better fit for her needs then. Lovely facility, good food. Great selection of optional activities.
