The Village has provided a haven for me since I could no longer live independently. The staff have been exemplary in supporting my move and residency in this well-designed facility. I have a lovely apartment, a staff of support people attentive to my needs, and chef- designed menus served in an attractive dining noon . The prevailing mood here is that of a positive and cheerful community. I am so pleased to be here.

My parents moved to the Village from another facility. The transition went well, the staff are welcoming and kind, the food is good, and there are many activities for them to choose from. Highly recommend!

We moved both of my parents to The Village from another facility and are so happy we did. The Village is a family and we have peace of mind knowing they are so well taken care of by people who truly care about them. All of the staff are great but I have to mention Carol Kolenski, Move In Coordinator. From Carol is incredible - professional, responsive and caring. She played a big part in our decision to move our parents after we met her and took a tour. More importantly, my parents both love her. Dad recently mentioned that she adds so much happiness to his day.

My mom lived in the memory care unit for almost two years and was cared for in the most loving way. The staff knew and anticipated her every need. We moved her from a facility in Westchester NY to be able to have her in an "aging in place" facility. She passed peacefully and comfortably with family and staff by her side last month. We can't say enough about the wonderful care that she received.

I moved my mom here from AZ from a very elite retirement community. We were a bit nervous about the move as the AZ facility was very posh. the AZ rooms and food were fabulous. My father passed so we wanted to move my mom east to be closer to family. We searched all over VT, NH and MA for a place she would be comfortable. Much to my surprise we picked WRJ, VT. That said, my mom is thriving and doing much better than in AZ. She has met very genuine friends. The nurses and medical providers are super nice and personable. The accept my mom for her attributes as well as limitations. Carol the director of admissions has gone above and beyond to meet our questions and concerns even after we signed the contract. Sure there are some minor issues as with every facility but none that would make me second guess our choice. The food is great and WRJ is thriving these days. She can go on trips and out to dinner or stay home and socialize with family and friends. I could not be more thrilled with our choice after weeks of searching and meeting with various providers. I would highly recommend the Village at WRJ.

We came from another facility and The Village has been a wonderful change. My Mother is in the memory care unit. The staff is enthusiastic, attentive and joyful and more importantly responsive to families concerns.The facility is beautifully appointed with wonderful amenities that support both residents and families. The activities are both enriching to family members who attend and fun for residents. The food is very good. But the real test is my Mother. She never expressed satisfaction in our prior facility but regularly tells us she is happy here. All the other residents seem happy as well which means they are kind and friendly to one another. I would highly recommend The Village.

My wife and I have lived at the Village at White River Junction for over a year and a half now I have been deeply impressed by the dedication and enthusiasm of all the staff, from office to maintenance, nursing, housekeeping, and culinary, for the welfare and comfort of residents. Not withstanding the stresses and strains imposed by the sudden and unexpected spread of COVID-19 in early 2020, and the need for new restrictions and procedures, we were all well looked after and kept both safe as well as comfortable throughout. Proximity to emergency and health service as well as well as the facilities of the town having a great advantage throughout. The indoors exercise room, library, music room, and gallery have been popular for all who can make use of them. With changes in the weather through spring and summer and the opportunities for outdoor activities, we’ve been able to avail of well planned outings and picnics, open air leisure time in the compact garden, and penthouse terrace. And finally, facilities for receiving guests and family for visits and meals have been a very welcome revival in recent weeks. Jivat Thadani

My Mom has resided at The Village for 2 years and I could not imagine a more perfect place for her to be, as she navigates her way through the many stages and challenges of dementia. The facility is beautiful, the staff is incredibly compassionate and attentive, and most importantly she is happy, safe and secure in “her home”. Her comfortable studio apartment, the exceptional food, daily stimulating and engaging activities, and caring staff make her feel she is where she should be and wants to be. The connection and communication between staff and our family allows us to be contact when we are not able to be with her, in person. And I would be remiss if I did not commend the entire staff on their exceptional perseverance and care during the COVID pandemic. For months the only contact with our Mom was by Skype or FaceTime, or window visits. As confusing as it was at times for my Mom, the look on her face when we were able to finally visit in person, after many lonely months, was priceless and heartwarming. How fortunate we are to have such an exceptionally wonderful place for my Mom to reside.

My husband with dementia moved to Memory Care at the Village two weeks ago. He has been welcomed, as have I, by a warm and caring staff who are friendly and helpful and eager to make the transition from our home to The Village as easy as possible. His living space is lovely, the meals are well prepared and delicious, and he is enjoying getting to know other residents and staff members.As a gregarious, outgoing person who suffered from lack of social contact during the COVID isolation, he is now enjoying a more normal life with interactions with staff and fellow residents. As his full time caregiver for the past 18 months, I am now getting more sleep at night and am comforted knowing he is safe and very well cared for. And,by the way, the Village is an absolutely beautiful nearly new facility with more amenities than you could imagine!
