A very well organized facility. The staff really cares about the residents. They had a lot of activities that even included families and they did a lot to keep everyone busy. I would recommend this community to others.
Crossgate
Best place for senior community in the Capital District area! Staff is very attentive and provides care in a loving, friendly way. Residents are great too. It totally has the feel of a family..and I wouldn’t have my mom living anywhere else. They truly made transitioning to this environment so much easier than expected.

Today we celebrate the caregivers—those whose quiet strength and unwavering compassion bring comfort to so many.
We see the difference caregivers make every day: holding a hand, sharing a smile, or offering reassurance when it’s needed most. 💕
Your dedication reminds us that true care goes beyond tasks—it’s an act of love, patience, and humanity.
Thank you for all you do to make the world a more compassionate place.
