My 102-year-old mother-in-law, Marion, has been living at Drum Hill for the past several years (originally with my father-in-law prior to his death) and in addition to her loving it, our family has been comforted knowing that she has been treated with much love, admiration and respect. She has been made to feel a part of a second family. She has made friends with her table mates and the “girls” who played canasta with her pre-COVID. While the place is beautiful and always immaculately clean, the special part of Drum Hill is the amazing staff under the wonderful and dedicated direction of Kathy, the Executive Director. Heartfelt thanks go to Russell (the most giving and accommodating concierge humanly possible), to all the evening and weekend receptionists who are happy to help whenever needed, to Tabitha (the housekeeper who accommodates all of Marion’s requests and who doubles as a caring friend to Marion), to the kitchen staff who are all kind and attentive to Marion’s preferences, to Diane (the administrative assistant) who is always there, with a smile, when needed; to Priscilla (the marketing director who identified the right apartment from the beginning) and to Joanne (the creative activities director) who develops programs for everyone and special events honoring the residents.There are truly not enough ways to adequately describe the staff and the care, love, attention, kindness, support, understanding and warmth that is personified. They comprise a team striving for excellence and achieving excellence. With so much appreciation, my family and I thank you all.Gail

I had the pleasure of speaking with Priscilla this evening who took the time to review the options at Drum Hill very thoroughly. I can’t contacted the facility via email in regards to relocating my 87 year old mother back to NY from NJ. I am so grateful for the level of expertise and compassion. Though my Mother may not quite meet the criteria she left the door open for any other questions and or concerns. Cindy D

Drum Hill has been a godsend for me and my parents. My Mom and Dad moved in 15 years ago and we just celebrated Mom’s 100th! She is engaged and active every day and well cared for. The management and staff do a tremendous job and really care about their residents. This is the only Independent Care Facility within the region that provides meals and activities and allows my mother to stay within her own home and now in later years have the assistance of an aide. It makes no sense to spend money on an expensive assisted living facility. Drum Hill offers all of that and more!

My dad moved into a very nice one-bedroom apartment in Drum Hill in October 2009. After touring Drum Hill and speaking with the staff, I felt very confident my dad would be safe, comfortable and happy there. Drum Hill provided lunch and dinner (good food!), medical alert devices in the bathroom & bedroom, lots of daily activities, and transportation for shopping and doctor appointments. Dad liked Drum Hill so much he wouldn’t relocate to New Hampshire when I moved there in 2012. Unfortunately, a few years later, dad started having memory issues, and also had significant hearing and vision loss. Once again, I tried to get him to relocate near me, but he refused. The next few years were very challenging as his dementia progressed. But with the help and support of the staff at Drum Hill, my dad was able to age in place there until he passed away in 2021. I want to thank all the staff at Drum Hill for their kindness and patience with my dad. I am forever grateful to you. If you’re looking for a safe, clean & comfortable place for a loved one to live, this is it.

My mom lived at Drum Hill for the past 7 years. The family took comfort in knowing she was in a safe, clean and caring environment. We all appreciated, including mom, the kind caring staff, from the front desk, kitchen staff, house keeping, transportation drivers & maintenance. Everyone was always available to assist & accommodate her needs. She had a lovely apartment which enabled her to be independent. I am so thankful that we found this facility and I would recommend Drum Hill to anyone.Thank you.

Our mother lived at Drum Hill for about 6 years and, sadly, recently had to succumb to a nursing home as she required a higher level of care. She absolutely loved living at Drum Hill and our family was comforted knowing how management and staff truly care about the residents, treating them like family.Thank you to Russell, (the best concierge in the world and friend to all); to all of the friendly weekend and evening receptionists; to Tony, (building manager and maintenance guru); to William, (DH bus driver, sometime concierge and all-time friend in need); to Tabitha, (outstanding and meticulous housekeeper and good friend to Mom); to the awesome kitchen staff who treated Mom with such kindness; to Diane and Lynn, (exceptional administrative team); to Joanne, (their creative activities director); Priscilla, (marketing director who identified just the right apartment for our mother); and finally, to Kathy, (executive director) who runs the entire show with finesse.Residents are surrounded by a top notch team. Families who oversee their aging parents’ needs can relax knowing they’re in a safe and loving home.Again, a big THANK YOU to everyone!Beth & Sharon

No where better – the right balance between independent living and support services. The staff is exceptionally responsive and the atmosphere is always upbeat. The facilities are kept immaculate. My Mom enjoys the array of food options and all the holiday festivities throughout the year. The entertainment has something for everyone! My Mom loves that the other residents are active and she especially loves her weekly Rummikub tournaments!

My mom has been living at Drum Hill for over four years and tells us every day how lucky she is to have found the perfect place to live. The staff is wonderful, kind, caring, friendly and every staff member is always willing to go the extra mile to help no matter what time of day or night. Our family takes comfort in knowing that my mom is in a clean, safe, friendly, loving environment and we are extremely grateful to the staff of Drum Hill.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Priscilla the other day. My siblings and I are in the process of figuring out what is next and the best place for mom. She was so kind and caring, informative and so knowledgeable. She even offered to speak with any family members and we haven’t even applied to Drum Hill yet. She has the biggest, caring, loving heart. I’m really hoping my siblings are in agreement with me on doing this.

Miss. Finelli, Director of Marketing, is a fine professional with exemplary communication skills. Clearly a pleasure to spend some quality time with. My mother is 94 years old and is stubborn as a mule but melted in her answers. Now if we could get Miss. Finelli 24/7 I am convinced my mother would make the move. Come on mom, do it! Your son Dean

A friendly environment! My mom is very happy there. She has made great friends and seems more energetic than when she was alone. I think the social environment has been good for her physically and mentally.

We had a wonderful experience dealing with Priscilla, Marketing Director of Drum Hill. She made us feel welcomed, like part of the family. She was extremely informative, listened to our concerns, and understanding the position we are in with our parents. The facility is an inviting, homey, and well kept environment. The staff is friendly and attentive, focusing on the wants and needs of the seniors- whether transitioning or living there. They have services that would enhance the life of the seniors that live there making them feel like part of a community and continue being independent. It’s a perfect fit for our family’s needs.

"It is a continuation of my whole life; except now I am being waited on!"

“I left my three-story house, with its snow plowing and grass cutting, and was very pleased with Drum Hill’s warm welcome and the family-like spirit of the staff. I am charmed with the diversity of the residents and the many interesting events presented here. This would be a hard place to leave.”

"Before coming to Drum Hill I had lost my husband, I was always home and lonely with out him. I desired Drum Hill for a sense of security and closeness to the community...And here I am, never alone!"
