Harmony Homes a Great Place to Travel into your Twilight
I would tell my friends that hands down this is an awesome place to bring a loved one. The community seems to be caring and patient with my loved ones needs.
The director down to the receptionist was always there to speak to me if I needed anything.
I loved Harmony Homes!
The food was good and they had menus and separate food to choose from. They made it fresh and had it in the window to be delivered to the tables for the residents.
The nurses aids acted like wait staff from drinks to dinner. It was like a little restaurant.

Harmony Homes By the Bay, a Hidden Gem
I honestly can not understand why someone would say that they walked in Harmony Homes By the Bay and thought it was dark and dirty. The opposite is true. After experience with countless nursing/assisted living facilities, I chose for mom to live here, both of us could not be happier! It’s bright, friendly, new, clean and has beautiful bay views from the community rooms. Harmony Homes By the Bay is a well thought out architectural gem that well represents the four seasons in Such a charming way. Resident rooms & community/dining areas are arranged around a wide, well lit walk way & central courtyard. It’s a big loop making it tough for people with compromised memory to get hopelessly lost. Nursing stations are hidden, easing stress on residents. I visit most every evening and help my mother prepare for bed. I know most of the residents and can say that as a whole they are happy. Lots of activities but plenty of independence if people wish it. My daughter volunteers to host karaoke night twice monthly and everyone loves it. Mom (92) has a wonderful group of friends. They call their rooms ‘their apartment’, which is what it is to them.
Like anywhere, what these people want first and foremost is frequent communion with their loved ones. Like anywhere, people decline without that love. Like anywhere, staff may come and go, people may call out, temporarily disrupting the rhythm of care. But here at Harmony Homes by the Bay even the residents who rarely get visitors, seem to me, a little happier and consider the staff and fellow residents closer to ‘family’ than I have personally witnessed in other facilities.

This place was dark, dirty gave me the impression I was walking into a nursing home. Admissions person was not well prepared for our visit. Not impressed.

Very Pleased
my mother I staying at Harmony Homes, and we are very pleased so far. I love that the atmosphere is light, airy, and that the people are very nice. My mother likes to be outside, and I really like that she is able to go outside here, sit on the patio, and look at the beautiful vies of the bay. The staff here is friendly and helpful, and they do offer a lot of activities, even though my mother won't usually participate. The community is also smaller than other places we looked at, so I feel she can be comfortable here. I'd recommend Harmony Homes.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the New Hampshire regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about New Hampshire regulations for Assisted Living.
