Mom experienced a stroke in late 2024 that has made her reliant on a wheelchair and assistance for daily activities. Her loss of independence was very sudden and a difficult adjustment for her, but the Kensington's positive and caring environment has really helped her live a fuller life…

Every time I visit, the residents are having a blast with activities like Casino Night, Bingo, and Uno — they look so happy and are genuinely having fun. It is clear that everyone truly enjoys being there. If you are…

    My Mother loves her new life at the Kensington. It is easy getting to know others walking over to the park, through exercise groups, and enjoying happy hours with live music together nightly. The food is delicious with beautiful settings and deiverse menu. The staff are friendly, smiling, and commited to the residence. I wish we had come sooner!

From day one, Caregiver Martha Reyes has been an absolute angel. She has a unique set of skills for working with dementia patients and a huge caring heart. She has been incredibly supportive to mom in her adjustment and to us as a family. She is always positive…
