My mother has been a resident of Bridges by Epoch in Westford, Massachusetts for almost two years. She has received outstanding care and thoroughly enjoys all the activities and entertainment offered. Meals are appetizing and wholesome and the familiarity of a daily routine is comforting to residents dealing with memory issues. The staff and management at Bridges in Westford are compassionate and professional. They work tirelessly with the residents and are very responsive to each resident's wants and needs. Highly recommended!

Words cannot describe how wonderful this community is! The team of staff members there are absolutely incredible, their dedication and commitment to the residents is amazing. The programming and activities they have are so unique, they keep the residents involved in the greater community as well as proving amazing opportunities in the community itself! The food is as good if not better than going out to a restaurant, no one ever leave hungry when we visit! If you have a loved one who is in need of memory care, Bridges is by far the best choice, if you are looking you should stop in and see it for yourself!

My mom has been a resident for four months. She was at another assisted living facility but needed more care as her dementia progressed. I chose Bridges because they have a psychiatrist on staff. Dr. Forrester is a geriatric psychiatrist who is very knowledgeable, compassionate and caring. My mother needs his expertise when she is feeling anxious and depressed. The staff is trained how to deal with residents with dementia and they offer separate rooms which is important for someone with dementia. I am pleased with my decision and I would highly recommend it to anyone needing a assisted living facility for someone with dementia.

We chose Bridges at Westford for my Dad for several reasons. It was close to where we lived, and we were already familiar with the community because of a friend who was a resident. The facility is beautifully maintained, both inside and out, which is how my Dad always maintained his house. He often thought Bridges was the house he had been living in for years. My Dad was a resident at Bridges for nearly 18 months before he passed away. Moving him to Bridges was heartbreaking for the family, but we knew it was the right move. Dad would be in a safe environment and would be monitored around the clock. We could no longer ensure his safety at home. From day one, the Bridges staff was so caring and helpful. Bridges also offered numerous activities/gatherings for the families/caregivers to attend with their loved one. The monthly support group and educational gatherings for the caregiver have been so helpful. We feel so blessed to have had a place like Bridges for my Dad.

My mother has been a resident of Bridges Westford for 8 months. Just this past week, I took her home with me to spend the day. She had been with me a few hours when suddenly exclaimed that she missed “her place.” She told me she felt “pampered” there. Our experience with Bridges Westford has been better than expected.

My mother has been a resident in Bridges by EPOCH At Westford for six weeks now. So far everything is going very well. The staff is keeping my mother busy. The management staff is very helpful as well. My mother has a studio room with a large bathroom. I would say that it is spacious enough for her. As for the activities, they have trips, gardening, trivia games, crafts, and bingo. I chose this facility because it is all memory care. I am hoping that the staff there is well trained in that area and will help my mother have a better life.
