My son and I explored 5 other area memory care facilities, and selected the Atrium at Cardinal Drive as far and away the best facility for my wife. She genuinely loves the other residents and the Resident Care Assistants, and feels that love returned. There are many activities available, and opportunities for socialization, which was an important factor for us. There is definitely a neighborhood/family vibe. All of the nurses, department heads and program directors have been extremely responsive and available whenever needed. We are as pleased as we can be, given a less than ideal situation necessitated by my wife's diagnosis.

The Atrium is fabulous. My sister came in as a level 5 care after being in a nursing facility . No walking not really talking. Sleeping all the time. Had to be fed. Within 1 month, the change was unvelievable. The staff encouraged her to participate and even if she didnt want to participate, they had her watch....no sitting around alone. No sleeping. Lots of hands on care. Today...she is back to where she was when she went to the terrible nursing facility for rehab. She is now level 2 and gets around with her walker and loves it there. I am beyond grateful for the Atrium for giving me my sister back so we can enjoy the time we have together

The Atrium at Cardinal Drive is such wonderful memory care community! Every associate from the receptionist to the resident care team is phenomenal. At the Atrium, memory care is their specialty and the resident care associates are highly trained professionals who treat each resident like family!

I would highly recommend the Atrium at Cardinal Drive in Agawam, MA for your loved ones with dementia. My twin sister was diagnosed several years ago and I moved her to several other places in Western MA (from her home in NH) until we found the Atrium. What a blessing this place exists!! Allison Baker, Dir. of Community Relations and Exec. Dir. Liz Skerry - Hastings made the process much easier than anticipated! The entire staff are a joy to work with. The nursing staff keeps me updated with her medical issues. And, the activity staff keep her busy most of the day from in-house programming to trips and visits to special places in the area.I can't say enough about the caring and compassionate aides who assist with all of her daily personal needs! They are a godsend! My sister tells me regularly that she loves it there and the people are so nice. And, the food is great! I try to visit regularly and if I can’t we talk on the phone. That phone call (and visit) keeps us connected! I like the idea that the model of care is based on the needs of the resident - from the lowest care needed to the highest care - up to hospice. Most places will only take you if you "fit" their guidelines and then they have to be moved to another site for more care, if needed. We know that my sister is at the right place for her. Your loved ones will thrive at The Atrium at Cardinal Drive, too!
