“We moved my mother into the memory care area of Heritage Woods (The Birches) about two years ago. The staff has been great and knowing your loved one is safe and being cared for is comforting. Working with dementia patients is difficult and we appreciate everything they’re doing for my mom.”
“Quail Run is such a beautiful community. The cottages are adorable and there’s so many beautiful walking paths. The staff really cares about their seniors and the food is great! I am so blessed to be part of this community 💕”

About these figures
Computed on October 23, 2026 from the 11 communities listed in Agawam, 615 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change.
