Assisted Living Communities in Quincy, MA

"The only reason we didn't pick The Current South Shore is that the apartment was on the fifth floor, and the porch was way bigger. It didn't have a cover, so we were wondering how we were going to shovel it and where do you put the snow when you're five stories up. The Current South Shore was actually really nice. It was brand new. It was six months old. The apartment that they showed us was a studio with a huge porch, and that was for independent living. I would give it a 3 only because right beside it was an automotive shop, and you could smell the oil if you went outside. Also, if my dad needed more help, he would lose his apartment, and he would get a smaller place. The staff member who gave the tour was wonderful, but the other person was awful. We gave them money first and then changed our mind because the other person was so bad. The place is beautiful, but one of their problems is the way the driveway is. When you come in, there's not much room. It's the way it's designed."

"I visited Susan Bailis. That place was to die for with a cute setup. The room was a one-bedroom with a living room. The people were very nice. The sitting area was very quaint, and it smelled good in there. It’s a fairly new place. The staff was excellent, especially the woman at the front door. They had underground parking, so visitors could stay as long as we want. I love it."

"I am a resident of Orchard Cove. I chose the place because of the surroundings, facilities, activities as well as friendly residents and staff. I wanted to be in a place that should my health needs change, I can move to enhanced living or skilled nursing. I have not been disappointed in my decision. Anyone considering a continuing care retirement community should seriously consider Orchard Cove. "

"I moved my mom after 5 years in a facility very close to me and spent 7 nights a week there with her and the staff. I liked most of the staff however they didnt stay long. I had many issues with management so I moved her to the Parc in January of 2020 just before the pandemic and since the move mom has received hands in care, gained weight which was a necessity and gets lots of love from the staff. She is smiling and flourishing now instead of crying and for that I’m grateful. Making the switch to the Parc was the best decision I’ve made for those looking for great care with a solid staff I highly recommend you give it a look. I give it 5."

"I liked Providence House Assisted Living. It was bright, and it was accessible. There was parking there. The staff was very nice. It's very clean. I was surprised by how bright it was. It didn't feel like a nursing home. They had things for the people to participate in. They have transportation if you don't have a car to go shopping three times a week. There are studios and apartments. They have a hair salon. They were playing Wheel of Fortune. They have tons of puzzles, and they have a library. Providence House is my favorite."

"All the staff at Sunrise are wonderful. We have always found them helpful and professional in every way-activities are very well planned and clients are encouraged to participate. Our family member really enjoys the food and the well planned activities. The nursing staff is caring and very helpful."

"Best decision to have my mother at Chestnut Park. When you pick a place you need to consider the what ifs. What happens if they become more frail, less able. What if they need more help. From three plus year experience I know the answer regarding Chestnut Park. This truly is a compassionate and caring community of residents and staff members. Some of the best people I could ever know. "

"I went to see the assisted living facility of Charter Senior Living of Dedham. It's very clean and smells nice. They have a lot of things for the elderly to do. They have all kinds of activities there for them. They have a beautiful dining area with a menu, and they have somebody who plays the piano there, which makes it nicer. I went in to look at a suite, because that's what I'm interested in for my mother, and it was very nice and accommodating. Visitors can come in and stay overnight and bring pets. My mother has 3 small dogs, so her visitors can bring the dogs to visit her and spend one night there, as long as they can take them out for a walk and all that. I liked what I saw, and the person who gave the tour was very good."

"Benchmark Senior Living on Clapboardtree was my number two of the places I went to, and I liked that as well. It was a new facility, but I thought the layout of where the activities were and where to go, might feel confusing for an elderly person initially because things were up on different floors. The staff was very good."

"My husband stayed at Prospect House. They're very friendly, very good, and very kind, but cost is definitely an issue for us. We used them for respite for two months, but we can't continue paying the full price. They were definitely very open-minded to accommodate what we needed. It's a small program, it's not huge, and the people are always there. The staff was always around. I would definitely use them again if need be. When I needed something, there was always someone to talk to. When I asked them to do something, there was always a person able and available to do it. There's always more than one staff member in the area where the people are, and also, the management is easy to find and talk to. They're right around all the time. He said the food was good. He liked it. The facility was excellent. It's clean, pretty, well-decorated, and homey. I can't say that they were too expensive because that's what everybody charges. I wish they were less."

"Brigham House was a pretty good place. It was old. I did see one of the rooms, which was new. They've done the rooms over and it was sizable enough. It has a very bright dining room and it's got floor-to-ceiling windows. I think that the people that are there are well taken care of. It just didn't appeal to my friend. It was just too old of a place for him. It was a little pricey. There's a $7,000 activity buy-in fee."

"I liked Evans Park at Newton Corner because of its proximity to our house, and it would be a good fit for the personality, types, and interests of our in-laws. The staff I met was great. They all were very nice, personable, friendly, and helpful. It was an older library that was converted into a senior living facility that had a refined taste in architecture and detail. It was very clean and the upkeep was very pristine. They had a physical/occupational therapy room, a small gym, and availability to either have their laundry done or to do it yourself. Everything was well maintained, and they're also going to be doing updates soon to the outside. I actually heard them working inside, so they are doing some renovations actively too."

"I was very impressed with Benchmark at Hanover. It was very nice, very clean, and well-kept. It's very new. They are at 65 percent capacity. The apartments were also very clean. The suite that we viewed was very spacious, accommodating, and we thought it was very good. They were extremely helpful, extremely caring, and understanding of the situation. The dining area was very nice, well-kept, and smelling clean. I saw people with snacks, like muffins and stuff like that, and they looked very good."
