Benchmark Senior Living at Ridgefield Crossings
5.0
My aunt was only there about 3 months. She kept falling, going to the hospital, then rehab, then back to Ridgefield Crossings. Then the cycle would start again so I don't have a lot of experiences to comment on. I know the staff was very nice, food was good, and the place was very clean.
