The Best Senior Living Communities in Attleboro, MA

"I went to see Wingate Residences on Blackstone Boulevard. It was a big high-rise building, so it was tough to get from place to place in the building. It was very big but it had everything. My biggest problem with this place was that it was pricey. The staff was great, they were wonderful. They had everything you can imagine there and more, they had a salon, they had a gym, they had massages, and they had all kinds of stuff. In terms of location, everything is there."

"My brother-in-law has moved into The Highlands on the East Side. It's very good. We liked it because it was the most affordable. We also liked it because it was nice and small. He has trouble walking, so it was nice and easy for him to navigate. Upkeep and maintenance seem fine so far. The staff has been very good. They have community areas and a dining area. It's not as fancy as the others, but perfectly adequate for his needs. He participates in the activities. He's very social, so that works out well. He's been doing Jeopardy, some of the game shows, bingo, and things like that, nothing very strenuous. It's not the highest-end place ever, but it fits his needs. We're happy with that. The food is OK."

"My sister was there a few weeks recuperating from a fall at home. Everyone there were so passionate and caring. She had a beautiful room , she enjoyed all the meals that were served and had many social activities to join in if she was interested. She was very happy there and we were so relieved to have her being taken care of until she felt better to return home. "

"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."

"My mother has moved into The Lighthouse at Lincoln. She is very happy there. She is doing great. It's a beautiful place. I like the fact that they're all certified in dementia care. All the helpers are dressed in green shirts. I guess that's the last color that dementia patients remember, so they know they can go to anyone in a green shirt who will help them. The rooms are beautiful. I love everything about it. There's nothing I can say that I don't like about it. It's very clean. They have outdoor space for the residents to walk around that's locked and supervised. It's wonderful. We're really happy. The price is reasonable, too. The staff is very helpful. They lead them to their rooms. They would do everything; they're wonderful. I can't say anything bad about anybody. There's enough staff. There are two CNAs, two med techs, and a nurse. There's someone who can give them their medication during the night. They've taken very good care of my mother so far. Everything's been good. My mother said the food was delicious, and she is very fussy. They were baking cookies, and she had a cookie. They have guest trays, but we haven't tasted the food. They have a pet therapy dog, art therapy, Tai Chi, and yoga. They keep them very busy. My mother goes from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. She has her own room with a twin bed, a bureau, and a nice, clean, big walk-in bathroom. It's very nice. They put her pictures up and stuff. When we left, they gave us a loaf of blueberry bread, and it was out of this world."

"My brother has been at Atria for several years. He considers Atria his home. He loves the food and he feels safe there. Staff is always pleasant to him."

"My mother was at the All American. She was only there for about a month though. The food was very good. They had two separate bedrooms to a unit, and the people could have a TV or a phone. If you walked in the door to these two bedrooms, there was a little sitting area first of all, to the left of that was the bathroom and a shower, and then the two bedrooms -- each with their own door and separated by a wall -- and they were very clean. They did laundry every week for everybody, they had nursing and activities going on, people coming in for the activities, and three meals a day. This was the memory care, but the whole thing was assisted living with not more than 16 people in it, so it was a nice, hands-on type of thing. It was a very good place. My mom had her 101st birthday over there, and they gave her a wonderful party. They were fine. Everything was a five. "

"I was able to visit Capitol Ridge at Providence. It was on par with the other place I toured, the amenities there were great, and close to everything. The problem that I had was it was too far for my mother to travel, so she wanted to be closer to home. The overall tour was wonderful, the staff was wonderful, very knowledgeable, on-point with all that they were doing, and very attentive. They had a gym, they had a church, and they had awesome food set up. They had all kinds of activities on and on and on."

"The tour I took at Magnolia Heights Gracious Retirement Living was very, very impressive, but it's out of my financial range, and that's a problem. It was wonderful. I liked it. I can't find anything wrong with it at all, except the price is over my head. The staff was fantastic. Everybody treated me right. The food was wonderful. It seemed very, very clean. The size of the rooms was fine for me. It could have been maybe a little bit bigger, but I would have been happy there if I could have afforded it."

"We have been very happy with the service that Whitney Place at Sharon has been giving, first with my mother and father, and now just my dad. They've gone out of their way to help in a variety of situations. The staff seems great. The only drawback is my father is Roman Catholic and it's generally more of a Jewish community. Arranging for getting a Sunday mass has been the only drawback at this point. The food seems fine. Things have changed with the Coronavirus, but still it seems to be very adequate and adaptable for special diets."

"Anchor Bay at East Providence is a little more modern than where Mom is. One of the drawbacks for me is that, depending on the time of day, it's going to be a half hour and 45 minutes to get there. The staff was great, particularly the people showing me around and talking about all the things that they provide. The facilities were very nice and new. I would have chosen this one if it was the closest one to me. They were just a little bit more expensive, maybe $1500 a month more expensive."

"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."

"I toured Atria Bay Spring Village and liked everything, like the dining hall. I liked the fact that there were other amenities inside the building. They had exercise classes close to the bike path. It's very clean. The floorplans were very nice. They're roomy enough, and the bathrooms were very good."

"I visited Smithfield Woods Senior Living and toured their assisted living facility for my friend. I like the sense of community and friendliness there. The staff members were extremely knowledgeable and very patient in answering my multitude of questions. The rooms, even though my friend will be having the smaller-sized room, are adequate. It's enough to fit a little seating area plus the bed, has a kitchenette, and the bathroom is a nice big size. I'm very pleased with it."
