We are proud to share the feedback and stories from several of our Kensington families and residents.
We are so proud to share this very special story of Barry, Kensington White Plains resident. His goal was to walk his daughter down the aisle at her wedding, and we were honored to be able to support him every step of the way in meeting that goal. We celebrated Barry with a champagne toast before he left for the wedding, and it had us all in tears!

The people who took great care of my Parents and gave me piece of mind knowing that my parents were being watched over by your caring staff. I never felt that way anywhere else. As you know, my Mother loved living at the Kensington. I think it probably was one of the best times in her life. From the library to the arts and crafts shows I think there was nothing she was prouder of and nothing she would have rather been doing. Even after my Mother’s passing my Dad still went to the movies and sat out on the terrace to get some sun. I attribute that to what a warm and comfortable place the Kensington was, and I’m sure continues to be.
“The Kensington continues to take loving care of our mother. It is an endless source of comfort to know that she’s protected, sustained, and fulfilled every day by the wonderful staff there.”
“My mother lived at the Kensington and truly loved to call it home. The staff were very compassionate to all her needs. The ability to customize her care in a resort like setting was paramount to our family.”

“ My mother was at the Kensington and had been there since October 2018. The people there are great! I don’t know how they are so patient and so nice, but they are. The one time we had an emergency that required a bathroom cleanup they were there in 10 minutes. They were thorough and I was amazed.
They are licensed to do a lot that most assisted living facilities are not. Including wound care and medicine by IV. Otherwise, if your loved one falls and gets a wound the assisted living facility has to send them somewhere else for rehab until the wound is gone. This way [ at The Kensington] they never have to leave the building. Over a two-week period they have 14 kinds of doctors have office hours within the building. They also provide physical therapy in the building and a beauty salon.
My mother recently died and the people there were great. They were able to handle hospice in the building in the room she was in so she wasn’t disoriented. The staff was extremely nice, even at the end when caring for her was very difficult. After she died the staff expressed concern and they really seemed committed to her. I cannot imagine a better place for her to spend her final years.”
“The staff is so nice and friendly. My grandma is so happy with her experience. When she’s happy our family is happy!! Thank you for being so kind.“
“Our family had no prior experience with assisted living residences until we moved our Mom to Kensington White Plains. She has lived there now for five years. The character and leadership of Executive Director Celina Watson captured the essence of what is truly important in a manager that runs a people caring business. Kensington’s motto “we promise to love and care for your family as we do our own” is not just words but demonstrated by actions. Kensington is an excellent facility and partner to entrust the care of our aging parents. Thank you to Celina and the entire community for all that you do.”
“I have visited my wife many, many times at The Kensington, and the experience is very pleasant. From Linda to Suzie to the nurses to the aides, they always greet you with a smile. I enjoy the visit with my wife as well as the staff.”
“My mom has been at the Kensington since April. Following a series of strokes, she did several stints in rehab and lived with me for eight months. As each month passed, it was harder and harder for me to take care of her. She was miserable, and I was exhausted. It was difficult to be “mother and daughter” and I felt I was losing my best friend. Since she moved to the Kensington, she has made new friends, been welcomed into a warm and compassionate community, and has some purpose to her life. Recently, her condition got worse, and she had to be hospitalized. When she returned to the Kensington, everyone: housekeeping, maintenance, personal care aides, nurses and Directors welcomed her back in such a loving way. There is a culture of compassion at the Kensington that permeates the building. When I would visit my mom in the hospital or rehab center, I was always scared to leave at the end of the day because I wasn’t sure how they would treat her. When I leave the Kensington after a visit, I go home with a sense of peace, knowing that everyone in the building has my mom’s best interests at heart.“
“The Kensington staff go above and beyond their duties. All the people at the Kensington make sure that your loved ones are taken care of and happy. We are so happy that we were able to find the Kensington.”
