Over the past decade working in the senior care industry, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with many communities, and Anchor Bay at East Providence truly stands out. The staff are incredibly dedicated and compassionate, the facilities are well-maintained and inviting, and the residents consistently exude happiness and satisfaction. It’s a community I wholeheartedly recommend—and one I would confidently choose for my own family.

In late summer we had to place my mother in law in memory care. This was a difficult process emotionally, not to mention paperwork-wise and logistically. We had toured several facilities in advance of her placement for when the time came, and Anchor Bay was always where we hoped she'd end up. We couldn't be more grateful to Sean Ledford - he's the Director of Sales and Marketing but really wears more hats than that - he was our main point of contact for getting the room squared away, the intake paperwork, answering all of our questions. He has always been patient and very responsive - updating doctors as they have been finalized with her moving states, etc. The move in and weeks after were a hard adjustment for our family. We were told by key staff members to trust the process and were given a timeline to set our expectations. Selfishly we thought our case was different, but now that we are past that estimated timeline we realize they were absolutely right. My mother in law is thriving at Anchor Bay with a solid routine, healthy meals, assisted care for showering... she is SAFE, and she is close by so we get to see her often. The staff on the memory care floor always knows how she is doing, what local trips she has been on and what sort of day she is having when we visit. We come at different times of day, and this is consistently the case. The receptionists and the activities director Shiela are special people, and this is a very well-kept facility with a beautiful view of Hundred Acre Cove. This is never an easy transition, but if you have to make it, this is a lovely place to do it. Not overwhelming in size, and you really get to know people once you are a part of the community.

Director Sean and the entire team are amazing. As anyone knows that’s gone through it, the process of moving anyone into assisted living is difficult at best. I recently had to quite quickly move my Uncle into a Memory Care facility. Several resources that I consulted suggested Anchor Bay East Providence. This was the 4th facility that I had visited, it was the farthest and I thought I had settled on an earlier facility. DO NOT MAKE YOUR FINAL DECISION without at least talking to Sean and taking a look at ABEP. It felt like Sean and team lifted the burden, shouldered it for ~ and the facility is beautiful. Sean helped me through every step of the process to include helping me determine how I would speak to my uncle about the transition. Thank you ABEP
