Memory Care Communities in Leominster, MA

"The memory care of Benchmark Senior Living at Shrewsbury Crossings was very nice and just very pleasant. The rooms were very beautiful and spacious. The person who assisted me was great, she was extremely helpful. The dining area was very clean and up-to-date. During my visit, they were having a kind of group talk and everyone looked very engaged."

"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!"

"Benchmark Senior Living at Robbins Brook was excellent. It was very clean, very new-looking, and warm. I only met one person and he was fine. He was great. He knew what he was talking about and answered all my questions quickly and easily."

"When we entered the Residence at Orchard Grove, we knew it would be a great fit! You can feel there is something very special when you enter the facility. The staff are kind, caring and connected with every resident. The facility is clean, bright, engaging and feels like home. We feel very blessed. My aunt has lived at Orchard Grove for 3 months. She loves it!"

"Tatnuck Park at Worcester was beautiful. We liked that one. The person, Ariana, that we met with was very, very helpful. There was plenty of staff. It was very comfortable. Everybody appeared to be very happy there. It's very clean and the residents' rooms were very large and everybody brings their own stuff. We saw a lot of common areas like dining rooms. They had a separate area for a whole kitchen. You can go in and even cook if you want to in there. There were several different rooms that the residents would meet for various reasons. The place was very large."

"I moved into Benchmark Senior Living at Nashua Crossings, and they're excellent. The staff members have been very caring. They let me do as much as I could, and then they helped me with the rest. The food is good. It's home-cooked food. They have lots of activities. I have a studio, but it's got plenty of room. They don't provide my television. I have to provide my own. My room is very clean. When I press the buzzer, they come within 5 minutes, which is excellent."

"We looked at Bridges by EPOCH at Sudbury. It was exceptional. It strictly does memory care and they had round-the-clock nursing. The room was very nice. Mom's going to bring in her own furniture. It looks good, and it looks like it's going to be a nice fit for her since it is a secure facility. They had a beautiful garden with raised beds. Bridges strictly focus on memory care from early dementia to even hospice care. I think it's going to be good and they'll be able to transition her from one phase of her disease to another, and that'll be a good thing for her and a good thing for us, too. They have all sorts of programs, whether it's tactile programs like gardening. When I went in yesterday, they had a three-piece band and some of the residents were dancing. I think that's a really good thing and my mother was a ballroom dancer. I think it's going to be good. They have painting, they do lots of puzzles, and what's nice about Bridges is that my sister can bring her dog in and she'll just sit right on my mom's lap, and I'm sure everyone else there will fall in love with her, too. We as a family can go in and sit and play cards with her and work on a puzzle. We can sit in the garden with her. I know it's more costly at Bridges, but I think the reward is going to be immense. The food smelled really good. Each one of the pods or the wings of the building only has 18 residents, so it's a very small, intimate group and every pod has its own restaurant bistro. My mom is going to have a pureed diet, so I'm not quite sure how that's going to work, but they will take care of that for her. The staff I met was fantastic. It has a dedicated staff and small units and an open concept where people are always being looked at. I like that during the evening, they check on all the residents one time an hour. That was a huge plus for us."

"The Atrium at Drum Hill is a well-designed and well-kept facility. The staff who I met were all very polite and looked to be very efficient. It appears to be a comfortable environment, one which I'm happy to entrust my mother to."

"Everyone is caring and kind. Management was available any time of day I emailed a question. Maintenance helped our Dad move his furniture. We had short ribs brought to the room with desserts, and then they brought us wine. Dad has met a group of friends talks about the aids and nurses. He keeps busy, sometimes too busy to take my call. It’s a great feeling to know he’s happy."

"The Courville at Nashua-Aynsley seemed more like a home for mom. It is a small community and everyone is generally kind and considerate. It fits her needs and what she wants. She wanted a little mini kitchenette almost like an apartment versus a regular room. They had plenty of activities going on and everyone seemed to be engaged in the activities, if they wanted to. The menu and everything for the food seemed excellent too. One day they were making centerpieces for the dining room tables with fresh cut flowers. They have a social hour every day at 4 p.m. for the residents to go down right before dinner. So, those are the two things that were nice about it. They also have a doctor who visits every single week and makes his rounds there."

"I toured Bridges by EPOCH at Nashua. It was impeccable. Everything anybody would like to have. The price was correct. The food was great because they sat me down and gave me a sandwich. It's a beautiful place. The only reason that I pulled away from it is the fact that I would like to be close to my wife. In my time, I would like to go to the same place, but they don't have that. They only have memory care."

"The tour at The Branches of Framingham was excellent, and the lady that was running it was excellent. The staff was friendly, courteous, and very welcoming. We got to taste the food and we got to meet the cook. Everything was good. They had a new chef, we had grilled chicken and potatoes."

"The Commons in Lincoln is excellent. The whole facility and the staff are wonderful. Mom has no complaints at all about the food. They have a swimming pool, lots of activities, and ways to get transportation to different places. If you needed more care, they have people that would come in. She has two meals per day that she could just have them take care of. They also have an exercise room, an art room, and a great room where they have music, bocce, and all kinds of other activities. They have wonderful grounds. Mom loves going for a walk so she could go for walks for around the grounds. Lincoln has many, many miles of paths and grocery stores nearby. It's just everything she needed. They have lots of concerts. Before COVID, they had children come in whom the residents had interactions with. Then they have exercise classes, as well as religious services, music, art classes, and lectures about all different topics including geography and politics."

"Brookdale Cushing Park was wonderful. The person who gave us the tour was very thorough in giving us information. They showed us several different styles of apartments that might work for my parents. We were able to talk with the people, and it was great. My mother is independent, but my father is not, so they would need assisted living. The staff who gave the tour was wonderful."
