I would give this place zero stars if I could. My experience with Benchmark at Newtown has been extremely disappointing. Some of the aides are often rude and dismissive, speaking to residents in a way that feels impatient and disrespectful. No one deserves to be treated like they’re a burden, especially in a place that’s supposed to provide care and comfort. Some of the staff are attentive and go above and beyond, it's a mixed bag. What’s even more concerning is the response time when residents need help. When someone uses their pendant to call for assistance, it can take an unreasonably long time for anyone to respond — and in some cases, no one shows up at all. That is completely unacceptable in a facility responsible for the safety and well-being of seniors. Families trust assisted living homes to provide reliable, compassionate care. Unfortunately, that has not been the case here. I would strongly urge others to look elsewhere before placing a loved one in this facility.
