Adult Day Care Communities in Tewksbury, MA

"I cannot say enough about the Community Family day care services in Medford, MA that my 97year old Mother attends. They are wonderful, caring, people, speaking for my Mother the attention that she receives from them are outstanding. I always receive notice if the staff have any questions regarding my Mother, whether it be an health issue, or some personal care. I am so grateful that I found this facility and have peace of mind while she is there. "

"My Mother was there for a while. The care was wonderful, friendly and so many activities. There is always a nurse on hand for emergencies. They also have transportation available' Daughter of Gerri Fontaine "

"My sister went to Pondview Lodge Adult Day Health. All the day placements had to close with the CDC restrictions. She was very happy there. She was there a couple of years and I was very happy with that. It was very nice. The staff was very good and they brought in volunteers for entertainment. It was very safe and very structured. She used to really look forward to going there. I would bring her there in the morning. She was there from 9:00 until 2:30 or 3:00 in the afternoon. It was gorgeous. It had two floors, and it had a wide, open area with a piano and different things that they could do. They offered different activities. The upstairs clients were the ones who could take on field trips. They evaluate the person, then they would try them on one floor or the other floor depending on what their needs were. They would develop a care program of what their needs were. That's how they categorize them, which was so good. They stopped when the virus started. It was perfect because you could pick your loved ones up, then you could do little groceries, then come home and have supper with the family. They had a nurse come in for some of the people there. The building itself is ideal for seniors because it's huge. It's two big floors and it's located right on a lake. They went fishing. It was so tranquil, serene, nice, and quiet. It was a nice place for them to be. I felt comfortable she was there. We loved it. I can't say enough. I'm a big advocate for those day centers. They need to do something to get them back because it's really helpful, especially for caretakers who need to work."

"My Dad has been in and out of Rehab facilities and Nursing Homes for the better part of 10 years due to multiple conditions he suffers from. We have been admitted to many facilities but none of them - NOT ONE - can come close to the high quality and genuine compassion that the Sancta Maria team offer. Great job Sancta Maria!! You're the best!!! "

"My friend is in Maristhill Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. She's doing well there. It's very good. They're taking great care of her and she's actually doing much better. I think they have about 100 patients. The building is four floors, and she has a shared room she shares with one other person. It has a bathroom, individual closets, individual bureaus, and a window. They provide good food and some activities. There is a nice area where she can, or we can take her for walks when we visit. We can take her out for lunch. It's very clean. They have a hard time keeping up with some of the bathrooms that everybody can access, but she has her own individual bathroom. The staff is great. There are nurses, aides, the doctor, and they're excellent in giving her her medication. She spends time with the other residents, and she's very popular there with the other residents. I don't usually see her eating, but she does seem to be happy with the meals. She said the food is good. It's one of the more expensive ones."

"My husband is in the Veteran's Adult Care group at the Soldiers Home and it has done wonders for him. Actually, it has helped his memory and conversation a little. The people there are so kind, thoughtful and understanding. The people that attend love it. They get to talk about their time in the service and they all seem to love that. They go over the newspaper with them every morning and then have a discussion about current events. Some days the play a DVD with "older" music which the men and women love. Some days my husband does not want to leave there. I'm so greatful to my husband's Dr. for telling me about this program. I wish more people knew of it. "

"All I can say is, if you truly love a family member that needs adult day care, this is NOT the place to go. My best friend has had her Mother going there for about a year and in that time, her Mom has had several "accidents" and at this time is being hospitalized due to a fall while in their care, that resulted in a broken hip, trauma and surgery. This will be a very long recovery which will require many doctor appts., rehab and physical therapy. Unfortunately, Mom has dimentia and doesn't know how this happened and the staff are being extremely vague with the family. No loved one should be a victim of others mistakes and lack of care. Please think twice before going here. You may actually save a loved ones life! The only reason I gave a one star rating is because it wouldn't allow my to submit without one. In reality, I give it -0! "

"My husband Dick and I were the first two applicants at our Gloucester unit of PACE- It has been a journey. My husband was a pussy cat.. I on the other hand, was not. I was a very difficult person for them to deal with.. But they kept up their efforts to get me to help myself with their patience, I finally realized I was my own worst enemy, and they genuinely cared about us. The entire staff is wonderful, patient, caring and understanding. The interaction with staff and each individual is sincere. The food is excellent-home made-no processed foods at all. The facility has everything conceivable to aid each of us in our quest for a meaningful life. If the Northshore Unit is any example of your other facilities, you are all remarkable--but I will always think of our unit here in Gloucester Ma. as the Flagship of your group=and one to set examples by. Diane Wood site coordinator, has done a remarkable job. "

"My parents Leva and Valentina go to Zabota almost every day and absolutely love it. The food is great, service is just outstanding; they even provide transportation to the physician's appointments and to the stores! Thank you so much for doing a truly wonderful job!!!! With the deepest appreciation. Galina "

"Here on Earth is an adult day care facility operating from 9-3 lcoated in the personal home of the owner and her husband. It is a colonial with a beautiful, large yard. The inside of the home is lovely, too. It's spacious and homey. It looks like a regular home, which is the feel the owner is trying to convey. Threre were few residents there the day I visited. It seemed more of a social interaction than a medical one. I was struck by the beautiful artwork by the residents displayed on the wall in the dining-turned craft room. I saw an elderly participant sitting peacefully in the sunroom reading a book. Looks like a beautiful place for those not in need of a great deal of care or for those whose memory is impaired or who just needs company. "

"Adult Daily care. Dad been attending one year. It’s been a blessing. Looking at it from the view point of what the senior likes and will thrive vs what I prefer. We needed assistance from isolation; meds; nutrition and a friendly hello every day. He has received all of them. They do a easy game daily and some musical guests. He enjoys the simple life now and that is ok. Pleasant staff with some turn over but that’s to be expected. I feel he’s safe. I never had negative issue w staff. He’s stable. Enjoy the moments. A new space in 2019 for adult daily care too."

"Upon arrival, it was a hot day and staff and residents alike were outside smoking at the entrance--not a pretty site. The facility did not look dirty at all but looked cramped and old. They offer both an assisted living component as well as adult day. Every adult day resident was in a small room with chairs formed in a circle chatting. I suppose some type of activity had just ended or was just beginning but no staff was in the room at the time I was there. The food being prepared for lunch looked and smelled wonderful and the staff was pleasant but the dining room had an institutional feeling. The facility was not locked--I did have an appointment and walked right in and said hello to the administrator. I know a man personally who sends a loved one there during the day and is thrilled with the facility. The assisted living rooms looked homey and pleasant with the residents' personal touches--decorations, wreaths, photos, etc. "

"River Court is fifteen minutes away from all of us. Everything has been great. It is very good. It is not that far, so it is easier for us to go to. They have everything going on in there. I have no problem at all. "
