The tour I had with NewBridge on the Charles was excellent and the community was vibrant. It's a fairly large community. It had nice exercise and swimming facilities. We did not eat there, but we saw the dining rooms and they were very nice. The maintenance was excellent. Two people met with us, and they were both very knowledgeable, had good listening skills, and were responsive to our questions.

My mother was in the rehabilitation facility of New bridge on the charles & from the minute we stepped in the facility you could hear patients yelling out from there rooms for help & the nurses standing around the nurses station wouldnt go in & help. My mother suffers from incontanance,so she cant hold her urine which causes her to soil all over herself which eats away at her dignity. The nurses wouldnt respond to her ringing the nurses button constantly & finally she tried to get up & fell flat on her face. She was then rushed back to the hospital for a broken nose & also to make sure she didnt rebreak anything from the hip surgery she just had a week prior.I would stay far away from this facility unless you want to worry about your loved one. This is the worst facility shes ever been in. I would do your diligent research

My late wife and I moved into NewBridge in August 2010. She was Jewish and I was a (lapsed) Christian. I have always felt loved and respected by the whole Community, and have been able both to contribute to and experience the excellent group of Independent Living residents. Rooms excellent and roomy. Staff are caring, especially in this difficult time of lockdown during Covid19. Zoom is at the moment the main group activity. Previously there have been many fine programs presented in the large Great Meadow Hall.

If you want your loved one to languish in loneliness, this is the place for them! Although the employees are capable of speaking English, they choose niot to iengage in English with residents -- leaving them without conversations. I saw a woman's buzzer repeatedly disconnected because the nurse didn' want to keep helping her. It was sickening. I saw patients ignored...not knowing about the "fun activities" because employees didn't want to take them. Whoever wrote the great reviews..it wasn't the patients. The good news is that the care improves the moment the family arrives. Love your loved one? Don't let then languish.

NewBridge on the Charles was very nice. I toured several others; this was the nicest one I've seen, and I liked it the best. Everything about it was nice. The rooms were well organized and in good condition.

Our parent lived there for 3 years and while it was so expensive, at over $17K a month, it was so disappointing despite that huge sum we paid monthly. The care was mediocre and some staff had bad attitudes. This is a place where they offer abundant extra-curricular activities, but they do as little as possible with care and with medically-related services. They rely on the attractive decor and activities to sell the place, but once your loved one moves in, you soon find the hands-on care is not very good with lots of waiting to be helped, and staff taking breaks and even sitting where the elderly can't find them easily. There is no chance to enjoy a nice day if there is no family to wheel a patient outside, staff don't bother. It is not a good place for Parkinson's because the exercise options are limited and an online search will quickly confirm the fact that PT should be ongoing for Parkinson's, but it was refused after a short stint at the beginning (when parent could have still been moved out again without too much trauma). Once there a few months, PT was discontinued despite obvious gain while doing it and then decline when it was yanked. We also were not allowed to hire a private PT to bring on site so the parent just declined more and more. Two or three workouts a week with a fitness trainer didn't do it with a disease that requires ongoing PT. Loss of hearing was also blamed on the disease, come to find out the hearing aides had been damaged by water after months of discussions, requests, and trying to combat the dismissive attitude about the hearing issues. Very mediocre care overall. As a loving family member, it was hard watching it happen and hard to visit. Very, very disappointing. Do not recommend especially if your parent has dementia as the only good feature, activities, won't be very meaningful. Save your money and look elsewhere.
