We picked this community because It had 12 levels of care. It was expensive but less than a nursing home and much, much nicer!I would recommend as long as they can afford it. It is a lovely atmosphere with very caring staff.
Maple Ridge Lodge in Essex, VT

They take very good care of both of my parents there. My dad is in the memory care. Mom tells everyone how good they are to her in the lodge. My only fear is that eventually we might run out of money and have to place them somewhere else. But I'm very happy with the care they receive.
