A community to help maintain your independence while providing the assistance you need, socialization and fine dining.
A safe environment to allow caregiver respite and participant socialization and medical support when it is not yet time for a full time solution.
A place to live with no needed personal care services. Our 109-unit building is appropriate for those age 62 plus.
Individualized attention and updated techniques are used to meet those with memory loss, at whatever stage they are in. Memory support and Alzheimer’s care is provided in our Adult Day Health Program and in our Assisted Living Facility.
Short-term rehab is available when additional therapy or medication management post-hospital stay is needed, with the goal of returning to one’s home. For those needing permanent, extended care, we offer long-term care. Our long-term residence is among the top of skilled nursing facilities, not only in Massachusetts, but throughout the entire country.
Our VNA program provides in-home care for patients needing medical or therapy support, enabling them to remain in their own homes. Additionally, our end-of-life hospice care keeps individuals comfortable in a compassionate setting.
