I found a place for my dad called Windrose at Weymouth memory care. They have 3 floors with only 15 residents per floor. I felt like it's a smaller community, it's closer to me and my sister, and so far, so good. So far, I like it. His apartment is extremely clean and they have all kinds of activities going on during the day. They have tables set up if the residents want to sit down and do puzzles or any arts and crafts. That stuff is always available, but they also have things planned during the day. My father said he loves the food and he's happy with it. They have places you can go if you want to sit alone. They can stretch out all over the place like you can go in the sunroom with sofas you can sit on. There are just plenty of places to visit.

Windrose at Weymouth was very nice, very reasonably priced and they have very nice staff. We're choosing it for my sister because it's convenient and close to my home. She'll be moving in sometime this week. It's assisted living and memory care. They also do a little extra because my sister will need help dressing and showering.

I went to Windrose at Weymouth. I liked that it wasn't very big, for someone with memory problems, it didn't seem overwhelming. I'm thinking from my mother-in-law's perspective, it wasn't a huge place, so I thought that was good for her. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. She answered all my questions. It all looked pretty neat, the area I was in looked clean. They offer a lot of activities for people with memory problems, different group activities when the weather is nice. They do try to bring them outside or on their patio area. It sounds like they're trying to keep the residents engaged and involved in different activities. They have music and different group activities. There's like a patio/courtyard area that they said that they utilize a lot in the warmer weather. I just saw a model room, so it looked nice. I can imagine going from a home to a room would be hard for someone, but the room itself looked nice. Most of the rooms have a half-bath, then there's just the bed area, and then like a small sitting area. They checked on the residents every hour at night, and things like that are important.

My husband was at Windrose at Weymouth for three months. It was an Alzheimer's only unit. They have three floors. I learned a lot there about Alzheimer's. They handle it differently than other places. They teach you things that you never realize. The staff and aides were very good and very caring. It's like a big mansion-type thing, but it's not formal. It has a big family room; they call it a sunroom. It made my husband feel more at home than any place he'd been. They have a lovely patio with hydrangeas. They're very welcoming and very good to the residents. I was very pleased with that. He was happy there.
They had nice meals, and each meal you had a choice of two things. They were very accommodating as far as not waking them up to serve them because they get confused walking, and they'll fall. They fix their meals. If they don't eat at the time or don't feel like eating at the time, they'll set it aside and put it back when they feel like eating.

My Mom has been a Monarch resident since last April.
We were BEYOND nervous about her going, but she transitioned without a problem!
The staff goes above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and at home.Monarch truly feels like a home. It is brand new and ALWAYS immaculate. The decor is beautiful, and is designed to make one feel as if they are in a home.
There are daily activities, frequent guest visitors ( pets, music, dancers etc.), and many themed parties!
When the weather permits, residents are welcome to go outside and enjoy the lovely patio. Last year, they had a tomato garden and several cook outs.
There is always a nurse on staff, and they are always willing to answer questions and call with concerns. The aides are pleasant and truly work hard.
Monarch is small enough , that everyone gets to know each other by name quickly. We have not only felt a connection with staff, but with residents and their families.
It is never easy to place a loved one, but when you feel they are being well cared for, it makes it a bit easier.

We were impressed with the facility from the moment we entered. The management was extremely helpful facilitating my father-in-law's transition into Monarch. The staff is very respectful, attentive, and friendly. The facilities are nice, new, and clean. There is an activity taking place every time we visit. We are thrilled to know our family member is safe, clean, well fed/hydrated, and entertained. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memory care facility.

My uncle lived at Monarch Homes for 8 months before succumbing to lung cancer. I found the staff to be kind and compassionate. They helped us to put him on hospice so that his last days were comfortable and he didn't have to go to a hospital setting.

I like the fact that Monarch Homes of Weymouth is brand new and very clean. It did not have a lot of activities going on. It seemed rather empty when I went there.
