Thank You
“My Mom was in the skilled rehab unit at Langdon Place of Keene after a hospitalization, she needed to get her strength back.
All of the staff on the unit were amazing and the facility is clean and comforting. The nurses and LNAs were very approachable and answered any questions we had. They were always willing and happy to assist my Mom and alter her care to better suit her needs and preferences. She was even able to get her hair cut and styled while there! My Mom loved the food, it was always delicious and varied and the desserts were exceptional! The therapy staff took their time with my Mom and worked to get her strength back.
We were so pleased with her stay that when she needed to return to rehab after a fall we requested Langdon Place of Keene. We had the same experience the second time. One of the great things is the consistency of the staff, so many of them have been at Langdon Place for years and continuity of care is so important. When it came time to make the decision for memory care for my Mom we chose Langdon Place of Keene.”
Dedicated, caring staff
My parents retired to their home region of Northern New England, and have been happy to be at Langdon Place in their later years. The excellent care they receive from its dedicated staff has seen them through a number of medical crises. That is all to the good for them, and is equally important for me and my siblings. Our family is close in heart but each of us children live far away in other regions of the country. And while we take turns visiting the folks throughout the year , it is a great comfort for us to know that they are receiving high quality, friendly care while we are back at our own homes. I've come to personally know many among the Langdon staff and enjoy the close working relationship I have with them regarding my parents' care, especially since I hold their medical powers of attorney. The staff does a wonderful job keeping me informed about their needs and care decisions in a way that shows they truly care for my parents as people, not just patients.

Peace of mind
Thanks to Langdon Place Keene, I have been given the most precious gifts imaginable: peace of mind, knowing my loved one is being well cared for in a safe environment every single day. The conscientious, compassionate staff puts my brother's well being foremost, and for me, that is priceless. The fact that my brother is happy further adds to my satisfaction with this wonderful facility.

Safe and secure
With the current pandemic I feel safe and secure. The management team does a very good job and the staff is attentive. - Paul T. (assisted living resident)
Great assistance with daily necessities
My friend who has lived alone most of his life needed someone to make sure he was eating correctly, if at all, taking his meds as prescribed and in a safe place for him as he aged and his memory slipped away. He has been at Langdon Place for more than six months and while, I admit he has not always been happy, he is receiving the watchful eye from care givers who care and are concerned with his quality of life as they would be with their family members.
