I moved my mother to Essex house in the beginning of October 2016 and have been very pleased with the service provided my mother. They have done everything in their power to make her stay comfortable. Due to the location, it has been easier for family to visit.
Commonwealth Senior Living at Kilmarnock

We chose Commonwealth because they were the best that we were able to find in the area and they are also a veteran oriented facility. I do think it is a good facility, but unfortunately dad was not here long enough to get acclimated.
