My mother lived at the Elms for a year. Depsite two very aggressive illnesses, I think it was the happiest I had seen her in years. She enjoyed meals with the other residents in the dining room and regular visits from Curly the dog. Her apartment was lovely with a little balcony overlooking the neighborhood. The staff did so much to help her given a quick decline of her health. One of the best benefits of the Elms is the proximity to Laurel Avenue shops and restaurants, cvs and the park across the street which has a senior center. There is convenient covered parking downstairs which allowed us access to my mom’s car. I looked forward to every visit. I looked at 30 different assisted living residences and this one was the best… no question.
