Assisted Living Communities in Walpole, MA

"My wife and I have been living at Orchard Cove for 2 years, and coming here was the best decision we could have possibly made. We are fully immersed in the community, making new friends, dining with friends and relatives, learning, laughing, giving back by sharing our knowledge and experiences with the residents on the skilled nursing floor, listening to great music and lectures. Our lives are fuller now, and I hope others will understand the benefits a CCRC contributes to their quality of life, their health, and wellbeing."

"My friend has moved here. It has the perfect size apartment for her. They're wonderful staff. They're supportive and caring. She can get outside and walk on her own. She is near a close friend who can come over frequently when needed. Food is okay. The amenities are very tastefully done, very attractive, and very comfortable. Every time I go, which is pretty frequent, there are always a lot of residents gathered comfortably around. It's just a comfortable, welcoming living environment for everybody. It seems that everybody feels comfortable kind of gathering as friends. The dining room is more personal. It's comfortable looking and comfortable feeling. It doesn't look stark and cold like a restaurant. All in all, It was the perfect answer for us in every way."

"My mom moved into All American Assisted Living at Wrentham. I chose it because it was like the first one I went to, it was close to my house, and it was very clean. Everybody there is awesome. My mother has not complained about the food. She eats every meal. There's a lot of activities. They give a flier every day and they do them all day long. They do exercises, bingo, bowling, arts and crafts, and puzzles. They play games, like a Jeopardy type thing."

"The Village at Willow Crossings was a terrific place. It was the greatest place you could imagine. I only met two of the staff members. One was the manager, the other was walking the floors, and they were both great. We talked to some of the residents and they loved the staff, too. You could get a single room or a shared room, depending on what you want. The place was almost brand new. It was clean as a whistle and it was very nicely laid out. It was long and it covered a lot of areas, which would be a little difficult for my mom because she couldn't walk that far."

"I had moved into Wingate Residences at Needham, but I had to move out again, not that I got sick and nobody around me got sick, but I knew I'd be in lockdown in their senior living and that would defeat the purpose of my living there, so I moved back home. I was there for a couple of weeks. They were very nice. It was a lovely place. They provide excellent service, good food, and things that you would hope for, but I didn't want to be isolated. There's a library, a swimming pool, a fitness center, and a theater, but I couldn't take advantage of any of these things because of the Covid lockdown. I had two Covid tests, so I had to stay in quarantine the whole time. The physical appearance was beautiful. I had a little experience with the activities. I heard an excellent lecture on my first day, but then I had to go on quarantine, so I didn't get to experience anything."

"We toured The Residence at Natick South. It has a very beautiful, elegant, and very formal setting. It required furnishing for even a short-term rehab stay. They did not provide a television. They had a white linen dinner every night, a well-appointed exercise room, and very friendly staff."

"I went to Benchmark Senior Living at Forge Hill. They gave me detailed information. They walked me through the process. They got me to the rooms. I got to meet the people that would be taking care of my mother. Some of them were there that day. And, they were just very thorough and explained everything. They spent a good amount of time with me and gave me all the pricing and all the steps. The staff was excellent. They were doing construction work. But the rooms were incredibly well done. They walked me through and explained to me that they were making some improvements. I understand that maintenance is required for any of these places and improvements will be made. It was clean. It didn't smell. It was fine."

"My mother and father in law was at the residence for 3 months. The apartment was great. The staff is great, understanding and very accomadating to all their wish's. The activities they enjoyed very much, the food is excellent alot of varieties. Would highly recommend for a family member."

"Sophia Snow Place is all inclusive, so Mom has assistance with anything she needs. She has meal choices, 3 times a day plus the pastry cart in the morning, help with showering and meds, does yoga and has wonderful caregivers, she loves them all. They are consistent and helpful and pleasant and she feels very secure. The facility itself is immaculately clean, her room is very large and comfortable. The people are organized and helpful, there is someone at the door who knows when people go in and out. They were referred to us by the nurses that do care there, and it was a great decision. There is nothing that she misses from home!"

"My wife and I are both in an assisted living accommodation at The Falls at Cordingly Dam. She's on the fourth floor and I'm on the first floor. I'm looking for an independent living accommodation because it is not good for me to be in an assisted living accommodation. She's fine here, but this is not the place for me. There's no activity for me here. We've been here for two months. I'm not happy here, but my wife is here. This is great for her, but not so good for me mentally and/or physically. I think the staff is superior. The accommodations are very nice for the assisted living. They have programs during the day, but everything requires assisted living and I do not need assistance in living. Their activities are for those who need assistance rather than for independent individuals. The rooms are very nice and very comfortable. The heating and air-conditioning is very adequate. There's nothing wrong with the accommodations at all. There's nothing wrong with the programs at all for the assisted living residents that are here. There's nothing wrong with the facility at all. I'm very pleased with the activity here for them. The food is great. They do a great job. I have a two-room apartment, fundamentally. It's very small and it's $10,800 a month."

"Our mom is a part of the Sunrise in Braintree’s reminiscence community.. All of the staff throughout Sunrise are amazing with the care they provide for her. They consider her a part of their family and make her feel safe and loved at all times. We are always greeted kindly by the staff and are made to feel welcomed each time we visit. Mom is very happy in her new home at Sunrise and this gives us a great piece of mind."

"My Mom has been a resident of Waterstone at Wellesley for more than two years now and is thriving like never before. She's highly engaged in the community and has made close friends with whom she enjoys meals, activities and shared interests. I can always count on the staff at Waterstone to reach out to me with issues (there are seldom any, but they are both proactive and responsive when needed). And the location on the Charles, and so close to the highway, makes for both an oasis and a convenience. My mom has, happily, gained a bit of weight since moving to Waterstone - she had lost so much during the pandemic we were concerned. She loves the food and the options available at meals. We have no complaints at all. It's hard to get a read on a community unless you are there during meals or Happy Hours, which Waterstone has twice a week for residents of both Independent and Assisted Living communities. It's a lot of fun for residents and gives my mom (and others) something to get dressed up for (mom puts on her best *AND* makeup)! We are extremely happy with Waterstone."

"I went to The Residence at Boylston Place. I was treated very well. They're upgrading their facility, so there was some construction going on but it didn't bother me. They're making it even nicer. By the time I'd be ready to move in if I did go there, it would be even more beautiful. It's a very nice architecture outside and inside. It's being brought up-to-date very nicely. The staff during the tour was very helpful. They have three meals a day and transportation and utilities are paid for. It's very attractive architecture and it's very clean. The dining area had very good lighting, was very spacious, and it looked like it would be an excellent place to sit down and dine and talk to residents."

"Sunrise of Wayland was clean. It was nice and quiet. The residents looked happy. I saw two-bedroom apartments, and they were small. They did not have kitchens. They didn't have a microwave or anything. They had a very small refrigerator, so it wasn't suited for me. I was looking for independent living, but they were very pleasant. I met Gina, and she was delightful."
