"I am writing to express mine and my sister's and brother's thanks to A Place for Mom, in particular Jessica, Eldercare Advisor of the recent move of our mom into Atria assisted living community. Jessica with her exhaustive knowledge of the New York health care industry, caring personality and tireless work ethic, is an invaluable asset to A Place for Mom. My initial conversation with Jessica involved her getting a feel for our Mom's then living conditions and what was going on in her life that was necessitating the search for assisted living. At the end of our hour long conversation, there was a consensus between us of which facilities would potentially be a good fit for our Mom. Jessica made the initial introductions, asking that they contact me to set up appointments for a visit and provide me with informational packets. Thank you A Place for Mom for affording my siblings and me an avenue and valuable resources that we so greatly needed in finding our Mom a safe, warm and caring home, for what we hope are many years to come."

-- Linda N.

"You were absolutely a godsend. I appreciate sooo much all the help you gave me. Mom is successfully situated in her new home and I think happier than she has been in a very long time. The activities and social interaction are precisely what she needed along with the daily supervision. She occasionally talks about returning to her home, but I think this is mostly out of confusion. The visits by friendly and friends in the course of a few weeks has exceeded the last several years."

-- Nancy H.

"Thank you so much for guiding me through the process and pointing me in the right direction for my dad. You pointed out veteran's benefits that I would have not known about had it not been for you and, you found us a great place for him to be."

-- Diane M.

The enriching environment at Oakwood Terrace is supportive of individuals, encouraging them to continue the activities they enjoyed at home—setting the table, folding laundry, gardening, or spending time with friends. Residents enjoy the spectacular views of the Moosic mountains and acres of courtyards with year-round walking paths.

Our four single-story ranch homes each accommodate 16 residents and promote normal household routines in the living room, dinette, kitchenette, and spas.

Resident can gather with neighbors for family-style meals, spend time socializing with friends after dinner, watch the evening news, or read the morning paper.
