Harbor Point at Centerville  and  Benchmark Senior Living at Plymouth Crossings, both Benchmark Mind & Memory Care communities, have been ranked among the best memory care communities in Massachusetts and the U.S. for the second straight year in U.S. News & World Report’s second annual Best Senior Living ratings.

Harbor Point is the only senior living community on Cape Cod to have earned this prestigious award. Forty Benchmark communities throughout the Northeast received a total of 53 U.S. News awards for the second straight year.

Harbor Point earned “Best” status by achieving the highest possible rating for memory care. Respondents gave the community high marks in critical areas, such as overall value, management and staff, resident enrichment, dining and food, safety, transportation, maintenance, housekeeping and location.

Harbor Point provides specialized assisted living with memory care for those who would benefit from a safer, engaging environment, chef-prepared meals, supportive living services, transportation and assistance with daily activities, such as getting dressed and medication management. Memory care assisted living residents enjoy connecting over programs and amenities offered in many common spaces including a secure outdoor courtyard offering seasonal dining, country kitchen, hair salon, private dining room, recreation room and a library.

“Our team is committed to keeping our residents connected to who and what matters most through outstanding care and experiences,” said Kate Fontana, executive director of Harbor Point. “Exceeding expectations every day is what we strive for so it’s incredibly exciting to have our dedication recognized by an industry leader like U.S. News.”
