Our father has been with the Kensington for four years and it had been a special experience. It is a lovely facility convenient to where he lived many years, and the familiarly has been powerful. As with any assisted living, there is a mix of capability among the guests and throughout Kensington has been attentive as his memory declines to meet him with people at his level, get to PT regularly and engage him with activities that he enjoys and keeps him alert. There is a deep kindness to the place in near every encounter from the very top, and the wonderful staff. They not only know dad, but “see” him on his terms - ensuring efforts and programs to his particular interests. He is greeted by name and warmly throughout. This experience is a team experience and my sister and I are captains of team dad and Kensington is utterly on his and our side - communicative, open, candid and respectful and encouraging - but ensure also that we hear the realities that sometimes it is hard for families to hear. Always with courtesy and kindness and, again, in the interests of dad.

I can't say enough good things about my father's 18 month residence at The Kensington. The staff was lovely and responsive to us and he was comfortable and well cared for, which brought such comfort to my family. Their affection for him was obvious and having onsite medical care and management of his medical schedling and transportation, when needed, made a difficult situation infinitely more manageable.

Re: The Kensington in White Plains: My aunt is in the memory unit of this facility. She has been in many other facilities in Westchester from independent living to direct nursing care. No facility could compare to The Kensington. I have been a nurse for 47 years and I know kindness, empathy and compassion when I see it. Just outstanding! I have never witnessed a single person with a negative emotion in any part of this facility. The physical environment is very clean and decorated beautifully. They have so many fun activities for their residents and the staff are active participants. People care here. I am over the moon that my loved one is here, safe and loved. Thank you staff!
