Smithfield Woods Senior Living

My mom has been here now for a year+ (dementia care). Let me tell you that the staff here treat their residents/patients like family, and maybe even better! If you have a family member suffering* from dementia or alzhimers, you know that you can't just ask, "how are they treating you here, Mom?" *And I'm sorry if you are going through this. I feel your pain. 11/9/25, My son and I stopped to visit my mom. Every one of the staff members here is genuinely kind-hearted and sincerely concerned. Special shout-out to Mercedes, my mom's nurse/caregiver, that afternoon. Her sincerity was so authentic, I could feel how much she cared. We brought my mom a piece of German Chocolate Cake from The Orchard Grille (which I also HIGHLY recommend, and only 1 minute down the road!) While eating it my mother managed to pull out her dentures. I didn't know what to do, I asked the first staff member I saw, and she immediately got Mercedes to come right over--she was so kind and gentle with my mom. Mercedes even asked my mom if she wanted her dentures out (to eat the soft cake--something I didn't even consider, as I do not yet wear dentures). Years ago, I was an EMT-Basic for 2 years. I have been in many reputable hospitals, and I've witnessed some nurses that didn't have a heart when it came to patient "care"--it's not just about fixing the ailment, it's also how you interact with the patient--we are all humans. And good or bad, we ALL deserve to be treated as such! You will not be disappointed here. All of the staff are extremely warm and genuinely caring. Seeing my mom like this isn't easy (you probably know that already, if you're going thru it, too). When I approached the nurse's desk (to get a tissue to blow my nose), the first nurse/staff member (I can't remember her name) that stepped forward to assist me (all of the staff seemed busy at that time), said, "Hi, how are you doing?" Through a few tears I replied, "Not so good." I immediately saw & felt her concern-level for ME change to code-red upon hearing my reply, so I quickly explained that I was "ok" and "it's tough seeing my mom like this," and that I just needed a tissue. All of the staff here are genuine care-givers--meaning they actually enjoy "giving care" and they aren't here just for a paycheck. These are exactly the kinds of warm souls that I hope will be taking care of me someday, when it's my turn. I am so grateful to Smithfield Woods for hiring such an exceptional staff here--you are ALL top-notch, and I love you for caring for my mom like she's your family. That means the world to me, and to my mom's family. Thank you. I am a review-junkie (that is, I read reviews first before trying anything/anywhere) but it was a fast family decision to place my mom into Smithfield Woods. I only recently decided to read others reviews about Smithfield Woods. I cannot comment on billing practices, as that is my brother's department. But one negative reviewer mentioned that Smithfiled Woods was dirty, and he wouldn't let his children crawl around in there. So, I decided to give it a discreet inspection with my eyes and camera (so you don't have to believe my "opinions"). See for yourself. The bathroom is clean. No dust piling up on the dressers. No filth on the floors. Heck, it may have been cleaner than MY house (And I'm much like my mom, a bit of a neat-freak with OCD). If you still aren't sure about placing your loved-one here at Smithfield Woods, then go check them out. Pay attention to how the staff treats the current clients/patients, or even you. Look around for what YOU might consider "unclean." Go ahead. See for yourself. Afterward, read my review of, and visit The Orchard Grille. When you check in, your temperature will be taken via a computer screen (technology...) Covid is still a concern, and hand sanitizer is readily accessible next to the sign in form.

A few of us went to visit a friend and have lunch with him. The staff at Smithfield Woods was very polite, professional and friendly from the moment we arrived. The food served at lunch was great. I'd recommend this facility to everyone! God Bless! Happy Easter! Allen Winter Sr

Each time I visit Smithfield Woods I meet tenants that are happy and engaged along with a professional staff greeting me at the door. The facility is always spotless and very comfortable.

Love it here! My Aunt is extremely happy here! Staff and residents are great! Easy to express my concerns and the activities and the director of activities Diane is the very best!!! I am so fortunate to leave here each day after visiting and feel comfortable and confident she is safe and being taken care of.
