“We are proud that Benchmark at Mount Pleasant is Thornwood’s first assisted living community. We offer many onsite amenities that make life easier and bring peace of mind to seniors and their loved ones,” says Sara Humphreys, executive director at Benchmark at Mount Pleasant. “Most importantly, as a human connection company, our associates truly care about our residents and want to see them happy and thriving—and that commitment guides everything we do, every day.”
An Array of Amenities and Services
With nearly 29 years of award-winning experience, Benchmark at Mount Pleasant operates in 70 communities throughout the Northeast, including nine in Fairfield County in Connecticut. Plus, Benchmark’s newest Thornwood location is located minutes from the Connecticut border. Residents also have access to outdoor dining, fireside social hours, a walking path, and engaging activities on Benchmark’s patios.

“We truly offer something for everyone this winter and all year long,” says Sara Humphreys. “Whether it’s enjoying homemade, seasonal meals with friends, a competitive poker game in the card room, watching holiday movies in the movie theater, relaxing in the salon, or reading by one of our fireplaces, we’re excited to help residents stay connected and engaged,” Humphreys adds.

The award-winning mind and memory care program features private apartments and dedicated amenities like a sunroom and hair salon. Benchmark also holds an advanced assisted living license, offering 24/7 personalized care and nursing support, including for residents living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.
