ANCHOR BAY AT EAST PROVIDENCE

I always enjoy visiting this community. There’s such a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and you can truly feel the care and intention behind everything they do. One of my favorite things is seeing the residents’ artwork from their monthly Paint & Vino displayed in the common areas—it’s so special to see their creativity showcased for everyone to enjoy. I love coming back and seeing the new pieces they’ve created each month. It’s a beautiful reminder that this is more than a place to live; it’s a place where people are encouraged to express themselves and thrive.

Truly Exceptional Care! Our family recently went through the difficult transition of moving my father into assisted living, and Anchor Bay made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel calm, respectful, and humane. From the very beginning, Sean and the entire staff treated my father with dignity, patience, and genuine kindness. They took the time to explain the process, answer our questions, and ensure that he felt safe and supported — not rushed or processed. That human element made all the difference for our family. It’s clear that the team at Anchor Bay truly cares about the people they serve, not just as residents, but as individuals with stories, families, and dignity that deserve to be honored. We are deeply grateful to Sean and the staff at Anchor Bay Assisted Living for their compassion, professionalism, and steady presence during a very emotional chapter for our family. I would wholeheartedly recommend Anchor Bay to anyone looking for a place where their loved one will be treated with real care and respect.

My family and I made the excruciating decision to have our mom move to a memory care assisted living community this past spring. We never thought we would have to make this choice. Anchor Bay was highly recommended to us and we feel very lucky to have her under excellent care at the East Providence location. The move in process was made easy by Sean and Opie. She is in an environment that is safe, full of other people and with lots of activities. Of course she will sometimes say she wants to go back home, but then again she used to say that when she lived at home. Her new home is safe and engaging. We are also grateful to the director of the facility David & Head Nurse Stephanie for going above and beyond to ensure our mom is getting what she needs. The facility is beautiful on the inside, the food is good and it’s in a wonderful location with lots of spots for fun lunch adventures & walks. Thank you to the team at Anchor Bay East Providence for making the most important person in our life feel safe & loved.

In late summer we had to place my mother in law in memory care. This was a difficult process emotionally, not to mention paperwork-wise and logistically. We had toured several facilities in advance of her placement for when the time came, and Anchor Bay was always where we hoped she'd end up. We couldn't be more grateful to Sean Ledford - he's the Director of Sales and Marketing but really wears more hats than that - he was our main point of contact for getting the room squared away, the intake paperwork, answering all of our questions. He has always been patient and very responsive - updating doctors as they have been finalized with her moving states, etc. The move in and weeks after were a hard adjustment for our family. We were told by key staff members to trust the process and were given a timeline to set our expectations. Selfishly we thought our case was different, but now that we are past that estimated timeline we realize they were absolutely right. My mother in law is thriving at Anchor Bay with a solid routine, healthy meals, assisted care for showering... she is SAFE, and she is close by so we get to see her often. The staff on the memory care floor always knows how she is doing, what local trips she has been on and what sort of day she is having when we visit. We come at different times of day, and this is consistently the case. The receptionists and the activities director Shiela are special people, and this is a very well-kept facility with a beautiful view of Hundred Acre Cove. This is never an easy transition, but if you have to make it, this is a lovely place to do it. Not overwhelming in size, and you really get to know people once you are a part of the community.

We recently looked at moving my mom into Anchor Bay The process started months ago. Sean, the Director of Sales and Marketing was incredible kind and helpful to me and my siblings and my mom. He was great about staying in touch...not pushy at all but appropriately communicative. Every other member of the team with whom we met were also extraordinarily nice and helpful. At the end of the day, my mom wasn't ready to make the move but I am very grateful for all the understanding and compassion shown to my family.
