Exceptional Assisted Living in White Plains, NY

Choosing Kensington Senior Living – White Plains was one of the best decisions our family ever made. From the very first day, it was clear this is not just an assisted living community—it is a true home built on compassion, dignity, and teamwork. My sister lived here for almost five years, and she truly thrived. Every team member—from caregivers to dining staff to leadership—worked together with one shared goal: her happiness and well-being. That kind of genuine, coordinated care is rare, and you feel it the moment you walk through the door. The food is outstanding—restaurant-quality meals that we enjoyed together often. Even when my sister required pureed foods toward the end of her life, the culinary team made meals that were beautiful, appetizing, and dignified. It meant everything to know she was still enjoying her meals. There is always something happening—live music, entertainment, lecture series, and social opportunities that made

With Gratitude for a Community That Truly Keeps Its Promise

Many years ago, I found myself in a deeply personal position—searching for a warm, loving, and truly premium assisted living community for someone who means the world to me. Like so many families, I was looking for more than just a place to live. I was looking for safety, dignity, connection, and genuine care. From the very moment I stepped through the doors of Kensington Senior Living, I knew—without hesitation—that this was the right place. The atmosphere was welcoming, the team members were kind and attentive, and there was an unmistakable feeling that this was a community built on compassion, excellence, and purpose. Years later, I can say with complete confidence that my instinct was right. My dear friend is not only well cared for—he is happy. He is surrounded by warm, friendly staff who know him, respect him, and treat him like family. He enjoys delicious meals, engaging lecture series, enriching outings, and the joy of daily happy hour with live entert

Sunday Brunch

I recently attended a Sunday brunch at The Kensington while visiting a friend’s mom and was so impressed. The community was immaculate, the staff were warm and welcoming, the food was excellent, and the live music made the brunch feel extra special. A truly wonderful experience all around.

When I entered this community, I was immediately greeted by a warm, friendly, and vibrant atmosphere that felt like home from the very first moment. Everyone I met was genuine, kind, and down-to-earth — not just “nice,” but truly present and welcoming in a way you can’t fake. After touring several other communities owned by large Wall Street corporations, the difference here was undeniable. The personal touch, the sense of heart, and the connection you feel from a privately owned and operated community is something you simply won’t find anywhere else. What impressed me most was the number of staff available to support and care for the residents. Their staffing levels far exceeded any of the other places I visited, and it shows — in the attentiveness, the smiles, the gentleness, and the way they take time with each resident as if they were family. I left feeling grateful, relieved, and excited. What an extraordinary place for my mom and dad to live — a true five-star community!

Our experience

Our family member was admitted to the fifth floor a couple of months ago. We visit him frequently and every time we visit we are impressed with every aspect of this place- friendly staff who treats patients like family, clean rooms and public areas, comfort for families, nutritious diet. And to make things even more pleasant (under the circumstances), the Administrative staff and especially [name removed], make our experience there as pleasant as one can hope for.

Ilse pace care

My mother was a 2 year resident and received all the attention and care that we hoped for. Staff were unfailingly helpful as when she had to be twice taken to the hospital. Staff accompanied her and stayed with her until I could arrive 1 hour later. Staff kept me apprised of my mother's condition and was helpful when we decided to call in hospice.

Teh Best Place for Mom

I moved my mother here after she had a disastrous experience at a nursing home. She needed to be at the nursing home, but when she became well enough to be discharged, they did not tell us. Prior to that she was at a different assisted living facility that has similar capabilities to The Kensington. Our experience at the Kensington has been excellent. They made every effort to make my mother feel welcome. They are taking good care of her, and unlike the prior two facilities, she has no complaints! She likes the food, and enjoys the entertainment and happy hour!

The property is nice and they do have a small garden area, but it is urban and I agree mom would prefer something with more land. I also thought their memory care was crowded and expensive (many shared rooms, which I am certain mom would not like). Not likely a solution.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know New York’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about New York’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
