Reviews of The Residence at Salem Woods
June 2026
Wonderful staff! Treated my mom and dad like they were family. Fabulous activities onsite and group trips to some wonderful local sites. Couldn't recommend a better place to someone looking for an assisted living facility that cares!
April 2026
Salem Woods was a very good choice for Joan. She was well taken care of and very happy. Many on the staff from the receptionists to the nurses and aides truly took a personal interest in her welfare and comfort.
March 2026
Wonderful place, have a lot of activities for the residence
March 2026
What a great decision it was for our family to decide on Salem Woods for Mom a year and a half ago. The entire staff has been so kind, compassionate and responsive to Mom and our family. The communication has been outstanding, and the staff routinely goes above and beyond our expectations. Salem Woods is welcoming, very well maintained, clean and always beautifully appointed, changing with the seasons and holidays. But it's the people that make it a truly special place.
March 2026
The Residence at Salem Woods, specifically Reflections, was my mother’s home for 3 years. We could not have asked for a better level of care managing challenging medication schedules and changes or a more loving staff to support our mother as her disease progressed. The communication from the staff to the family was superb and I never doubted my mother was well taken care of. The love and support that the staff showed my mother and our family was with the highest level of respect.
March 2026
The absolute, hands down best staff and facility we've encountered. After moving mom twice we finally were blessed to find Salem Woods. They cared for mom like family.
December 2025
Lots of activities for clients. Staff is friendly and caring
November 2025
I recently visited the residence and was SO impressed with the entire experience. Everyone who worked there was so warm and kind and all the residents we encountered seemed very happy. The facility was also clean and well decorated. Will definitely be keeping the residence in mind for future needs!!
October 2025
Topnotch people running the place. Amazing experience for mom. She couldn’t be any happier!
August 2025
The whole experience at Salem woods is truly fabulous. The staff is great the aides are very helpful and caring the meds group delivers meds on time. The food is excellent and very good.

Our 97- year-old mother has been a resident of Salem Woods for several months now and is enjoying her life there very much. Being semi-independent because of mobility issues, she has blossomed under their care, attention and kindness and participates in all the activities. The ENTIRE staff is remarkable, the food is incredible and we feel blessed that she is happy, active and well cared for.
April 2025
Our family has been very happy with the level of service in the care of the staff.
February 2025
Just placed my uncle here, and feel good about the whole experience. Our 28 yr old movers commented to us that they have seen all the senior living facilities in S. NH, and this is where they would pick for themselves. Everything is very clean, and smells nice. The resident rooms have high ceilings, and very large windows with a view of the grounds. They have large closet spaces. It just feels like a home, not an institution. The food is the best I have experienced in senior living, with a restaurant experience at every meal.
February 2025
Daisy-Kayo-Wells at The Residence at Salem Woods is the Resident Engagement Director and she is phenomenal at what she does! She provides programs, activities, events, and so much more for every resident to enjoy! Her passion, dedication, and joy she brings to this community is amazing. Daisy is friendly, approachable, and residents and families are extremely fortunate to have her! She puts smiles on their faces!
February 2025
My mother loves the community! All of the staff are always welcoming, warm and caring especially Meredith!
February 2025
The residence is beautiful and well maintained. The staff are kind and take excellent care of my mom. The food selections are excellent, and there are a lot of choices daily. They offer a lot of different activities on a daily basis. I would recommend The Residence at Salem Woods to anyone looking for assisted living for themselves or a family member.

Reflections Review: this place was such a mixed bag. There are a few amazing nurses I want to say first. Mindy was a stand out. I always knew Mom was good when she was on. Hire her to train the staff and pay her dearly!!! That being said, If you move your loved one in, please get cameras and advocate for your person. It was the most frustrating 2 years of my life! The communication in reflections was extremely frustrating you would ask questions, no answers, would have to call and call. My Mom passed out 3 xs in 2 years because they can't "force them to eat and drink". They left her to walk and walk another patient who clung to her all the time. I honestly could go on and on. If your parent has a less severe illness, find a smaller facility and get on the waiting list! You will never regret it.

Wonderful facility with caring concerned staff. Had a fabulous experience with Daisey Kayo-Wells the engagement director. Thanks for allowing us to come into your facility and entertain ! The Gentlemen Songsters

I just recently gave a talk at Salem Woods and found everything--from the staff, to the residents to the facility to be Extraordinary. Warm, welcoming and bright. Truly a first class operation top to bottom. Jay
June 2023
When I first walked through Salem Woods with my daughter-in-law, I was impressed with a feeling of welcoming and spaciousness from the folks I saw and areas that I looked at. A smile, a hello from people I had yet to meet and make our new home with. It didn’t take long for me to make a decision and return to Pelham and tell my husband. He was not well and had not accompanied me, but made the effort to come to Salem Woods before we made our final decision together. We moved into our new care free one-bedroom apartment home on July 2, 2021. We have two large windows in the living room and two in the bedroom that look out where we can see our car parked and beautifully landscaped grounds. Plants and flowers are on our windowsills. At Salem Woods we found a dining room open from 7: am to 7: pm where we can order anything from a full and varied menu book, or choose from two daily luncheon or dinner specials including a new soup! One does not go hungry! Meals can also be brought to your apartment, or to go as the microwave and stove are available in our kitchen area, along with a refrigerator/freezer which are located near the sink. Keeping our apartment clean is not a problem with a friendly housekeeper coming in once a week, changing our bed linens when we want and then putting then through the laundry for us. If desired, our personal laundry can also be done. Every day there is a agenda of a variety of activities, from wellness, recreational and social. Transportation is available for shopping, outings and appointments. You need a picture hung, maintenance is at the ready for that and more. Need a book to read? One each of the two floors is a library full of various selections. A billiard room is often busy and, in the evening, movies are shown. The safety of residents is covered with 24/7 security and staff. My husband and I came in as Independent residents, but with the knowledge as we grow older we might need to change to Assisted living, should the need arise. The staff here at Salem Woods are great, and make each of us feel special. Waitstaff know your name and once they know your preferences at mealtime, come to get your order with your favorite beverage in hand. My husband passed away this year and everyone couldn’t have been more supportive. It was a comfort to me knowing that once I opened my apartment door there was a support team of Salem Woods staff and the residents outside. We have made many friends with a lot of the residents and now being alone, I have one very special person I am close to.
May 2023
I can't say enough positive things about my family's experience since having a loved one join the Salem Woods community recently. This was our first time time exploring an assisted living option and once we found Salem Woods, we knew we found a home for Dad. Everyone at Salem Woods has been fantastic - from the orientation, the nursing staff, the Resident Care Directors, the facilities and maintenance staff, the food service - all of them. They have made our family feel welcome since day one and going to Salem Woods to visit is now just a natural part of our routine. I don't think you'll find a nicer, happier, well-organized and personable place for your loved one in Southern New Hampshire - we're very happy with our decision.
May 2023
The Residence at Salem Woods is a top-notch facility for assisted living. The facility is clean, well maintained and has the feel of a high-end hotel versus a hospital atmosphere. The moment you walk in the front door you are greeted by a smiling receptionist, and a pristine lobby entrance. To the left is a sitting room where residents can gather or simply read a newspaper, and directly ahead of you is a small library and sitting room. As you move about the facility you feel welcomed by everyone you meet. By the time my wife and I left after our unscheduled site visit, we knew this was the place for my mother. My experience is mostly with the memory care unit, Reflections. My mom has Alzheimer’s and has started to need daily assistance we could no longer provide. Since moving in I have seen her start to thrive once again. The staff keeps her engaged and active and knows how to calm her when she gets anxious. Their hands on approach and timely responses have been exemplary. I can’t speak highly enough about the entire staff, including the nurses, aids, administration, maintenance, food service and general support. Each person we have dealt with is professional and courteous. I even paid close attention to how the staff interacts with the other residents and it’s obvious they really care. I know that my mom is safe and well taken care of. Their communications with me have been exceptional. I can speak face to face with all the staff to get updates on mom’s care and progress. They also keep me informed through phone calls and frequent e mails, which I really appreciate. If I have any questions I can call or be able to speak directly with the floor nurse who always has the answers to my queries. The same can be said about any of the administration personnel. The aids all know who my mom is and can answer any questions I may have. I feel honored to offer my complete recommendation to The Residence at Salem Woods.

Great management team!
July 2021
The COVID crisis sent everyone in the world into a talespin! It was so hard not to see our Dad however The Residence at Salem Woods worked with us to make it possible. Our family started with a banner we taped together that our Dad could see from his window to communicate to him how much we loved him beyond the phone calls. Dad is not into computers as he was before and shunned the thought of an IPAd for us to facetime with him. The staff went above and beyond by sending us pics of numerous event they hosted internally to keep the residents engaged with their new family - Shari, Daisy, Barbarajean, Rachelle, Salem Wellness staff, the culinary and housekeeping staff, and the behind the scenes great folks that made it all amenable! Thank goodness for the great efforts taken to keep to keep all the residents of Salem Woods SAFE. God bless you all! Red's entire family!
July 2021
The entire team at Salem Woods is the best! They are all so warm, welcoming and professional. My mom feels safe and comfortable already and it’s only been a few weeks. We really can’t thank you all enough for the piece of mind you’ve given us knowing that she is so well taken care of.
July 2021
Mom moved to Salem Woods almost a year ago. We and our Mom have been so impressed with the attentiveness of ALL of the staff members. They treat my Mom with such kindness and respect always. When there is any issue it always gets resolved without hesitation! We are so glad we made the decision to have Salem Woods take care of our Mom.

Everything about this facility is top notch. It is new, fresh, bright, and very welcoming. The staff has been absolutely terrific in welcoming and orienting my dad to their community. He feels so at home there and is thriving. Thank you to the whole team for making his transition so seemless.
July 2020
AMAZING and compassionate staff - the administration, wellness, engagement, and facilities management all sincerely care for the residents at Salem Woods. My parents have been in assisted/independent living for several months and they and our family are super pleased. The onboarding was extremely smooth, there's activities everyday for residents, meals are delicious and the residence itself is gorgeous. We researched for a year before making the decision and are glad we went with Salem Woods. They are like an extended family to us.

No , they were doing everything according to the health department and the corporate offices

We can't say enough great things about Salem Woods! We needed to move my Mom into an apartment in a quick timeframe and they were so accommodating! Everyone was and is so helpful and nice assisting us through this transition. It was great move for Mom and we are super happy with Salem Woods!
January 2020
Thank you very much. I am on my feet again and able to go home. Your temporary rehabilitation program (60 days) restored my strength and self-reliance. The intense physical and occupational therapy programs run by dedicated and competent therapists, the kind support I needed, the calming atmosphere, the helpful staff and last, but not least, the good food and service, all were there. Thank you Salem Woods, from management to the young associates, you all helped me ease my way into each new day! This review was posted by me, Ruth Goldstein, using the account of F. Keenan.

I would highly recommend The Residence at Salem Woods, Salem, NH. My Aunt has lived there since it opened. We had visited several facilities and this one truly was the best. The staff is truly superior. Shari, Brittany, Katrina, and many others are always available to help the residents as well as the family. They have a great medical staff as well as a staff for general repairs. I am there quite often and am always treated with respect and always get answers. I thank all the staff at the Residence.
November 2019
I just toured this facility. I will be needing an independent living facility when I retire and I love NH. Jeff, the head of food design and creation was my tour guide. It was the best choice for me. I want my food to have flavor even when I am too old to know what I want. Jeff not only gave me a great tour, but spoke to me about all the choices the residences get with food. Anytime dining is such a plus for independent seniors. We can enjoy our meals on our schedule and preferences not the facilities. The rooms were well sized and the place very clean and cared for. Gardening, painting, a fireplace and billiard room are all available. When my time comes this will be at the top of the list.

My wife Mary Jane and I have lived at The Residence at Salem Woods for six months now. We visited several other facilities before choosing Salem Woods. They were all OK but Salem woods seem to offer more. We are very happy with our choice. The staff is excellent. Regardless of someone’s job or position they never refuse to help you and if they are not qualified, they immediately find someone that can help. They have a cognitive care section that I take Mary Jane to when I can’t be with her. I know she is safe there and they are always doing something for entertainment. The facility is new, well maintained and very clean. Doug Heffernan

We thoroughly enjoyed our month-long stay at the Residence at Salem Woods. We were surprised by a lovely welcome with a bouquet of red roses and Happy Birthday balloons! The facility itself was comfortable and attractively furnished. Outside, my husband was happy with the trail around the building which he walked daily, weather permitting. The landscaping was lovely! The overall design was esthetically pleasing and well maintained. From the top, Shari and Brittany, through the whole staff, everyone treated us with warmth and respect. The general approach was extremely personal, everyone was on a first name basis. Food service offered an ample menu available all day and it was good! Every morning there was an exercise program designed for seniors and at other times tai chi and yoga as well as many other activities and trips. If we at all can physically, we plan on coming back next year!! The Tobens

CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE RESIDENCE AT SALEM WOODS ,A PLACE YOU WOULD WANT TO HAVE A DISTRESSED LOVED ONE. THE FACILITY IS RELATIVELY NEW IN A RURAL SETTING. IT OFFERS ALL THE AMENITIES THAT YOU COULD WANT SUCH AS CLEAN LARGE ROOMSWITH PRIVATE SHOWER. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART, HOWEVER, IS THE STAFF WHO ARE ATTENTIVE AND FEEL MORE LIKE FAMILY. there ARE MANY I COULD MENTION, BUT IN PARTICULAR ARE KATY, THE FLOOR DIRECTOR, ROSA, AN AID, AND SHARI, EXEC DIRECTOR. I HAVE TO MENTION BRITTANY TALBOT. SALES DIRECTOR ALL THESE PEOPLE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOUND WHAT THEY HAD TO DO. KATY FOUND THAT MY WIFE NEEDED A BETTER WHEELCHAIR FOR HER LEGS AND A BETTER HOSPITAL BED THAT ROSE UP FOR HER HEAD IN BACK AFTER A YEAR, MY WIFE FINALLY WENT DOWN HILL AND PASSED AWAY WITH DEMENTIA. I FEEL THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO HELP HER..KATY AND ROSA EVEN SHOWED UP AT THE WAKE.

My father in law stayed here temporarily to give us a break and it was a wonderful experience. We were truly able to enjoy ourselves not having to worry about him. During our stop ins we were so glad to see that his appetite had improved, he was more involved in different activities, and most importantly well cared for. The staff were friendly and helpful and he got to enjoy outings where on past occasions at home we were unable to do so. We still enjoy visiting occasionally for different events they have. We look forward to having him stay there again soon.
