Prospect House

My grandmother stayed here for a few years. She really enjoyed her time there. The staff were helpful and highly capable. The rooms were a good size and complete with very nice appliances. There were always plenty of activities for her to do and very good food to choose from. The facility was brand new at the time of her stay, that being said the quality of the building itself was impeccable. The hallways were well lighted, decorated with art work, and in areas near elevators were little alcoves to sit and sometimes organs to play. In the spring and summer landscaping was done weekly, planting flowers and making sure the grounds where nice. There were also daily trips to go shopping.A priest came for service every sunday. After a recent remodeling they also added a game room with a pool table and area for board games and a kitchen area that was used for making pizzas.

Prospect is a large assisted living facility located in Revere, MA. The homecare company I work for sends me three times a month to prospect house to provide nursing care services to five residents. I am not employed by the facility. Prospect house is located in a Revere neighborhood that has average safety ratio. I enjoy driving to the facility while enjoying the beautiful scenic view of the ocean. The building is well secured. There is a receptionist who requests visitors to check in and out. She was friendly and helpful. Senior residents live in apartment-style rooms that seem comfortable. I accompanied one senior resident to the dining room for lunch and noticed that the food quality good. I noticed that several residents were roaming in the hallways. I also felt like I was in an institution because of the large size of the facility. Prospect house would not be suitable for seniors who prefer living in a smaller family-like community.

As a seasoned professional within the assisted-living field I have behind-the-scenes knowledge of a wide variety of communities. I can testify that the atmosphere within Prospect House toward residents is one of the warmest, most caring and sincere that I have encountered in the business. A wide cross-section of seniors from differing backgrounds dwell together with a staff that caters to everyone equally. A rare find in a community and one that I am proud to be a part of!
