Memory Care Communities in Quincy, MA

"The only reason we didn't pick The Current South Shore is that the apartment was on the fifth floor, and the porch was way bigger. It didn't have a cover, so we were wondering how we were going to shovel it and where do you put the snow when you're five stories up. The Current South Shore was actually really nice. It was brand new. It was six months old. The apartment that they showed us was a studio with a huge porch, and that was for independent living. I would give it a 3 only because right beside it was an automotive shop, and you could smell the oil if you went outside. Also, if my dad needed more help, he would lose his apartment, and he would get a smaller place. The staff member who gave the tour was wonderful, but the other person was awful. We gave them money first and then changed our mind because the other person was so bad. The place is beautiful, but one of their problems is the way the driveway is. When you come in, there's not much room. It's the way it's designed."

"We chose them for my aunt. It's very warm, cozy, and beautiful; beautiful in architecture, and everything about it. It's a nice, warm place when you first step in. The staff is very attentive to the clients. The food is fantastic, and the residents are very happy. Lots of activities. They have bingo, trips, arts and crafts, they have a welcoming party when you first come in which is a phenomenal thing. A welcome dinner which made her really at home with a deejay, food, and family invited. It was a nice experience when you first came in."

"I liked Providence House Assisted Living. It was bright, and it was accessible. There was parking there. The staff was very nice. It's very clean. I was surprised by how bright it was. It didn't feel like a nursing home. They had things for the people to participate in. They have transportation if you don't have a car to go shopping three times a week. There are studios and apartments. They have a hair salon. They were playing Wheel of Fortune. They have tons of puzzles, and they have a library. Providence House is my favorite."

"Everything is very nice at Sunrise of Cohasset, but the rooms are a little bit older. The amenities seem very good. The cafeteria is right there in the main hallway, so it's very easy to get to and it seemed very well set up. The layout was not great, but it was good. I just thought it was very odd that the small refrigerators were on the ground because most people can't bend over. I think the refrigerator should be up high."

"Best decision to have my mother at Chestnut Park. When you pick a place you need to consider the what ifs. What happens if they become more frail, less able. What if they need more help. From three plus year experience I know the answer regarding Chestnut Park. This truly is a compassionate and caring community of residents and staff members. Some of the best people I could ever know. "

"When I visited my cousin I was really impressed with the place and all the activities going on. All the people living there seemed happy and interested in the game they were playing. We had a great visit with my cousin, I haven’t seen her this content in a long time. "

"I toured Benchmark Senior Living on Clapboardtree. It's a very nice place, but they didn't have an opening for my mother and father to live together, which is a very big part of it. They've been married for 62 years, and they want to be together. They just didn't have a room. There was no availability for a room for them to be together, and the wait would have been a minimum of six months to a year and a half, and I'm like, no. The place was nice. It was more set up as apartments than a senior living place. They are under construction, so a lot of the grounds are torn up right now. They're redoing the outside and redoing the porches. It's nice, it's a smaller place, but it doesn't offer as much. I wouldn't say anything bad about it, and I would have considered it, but all in all, it doesn't hold a candle to the place my parents are going. The staff was awesome. They were always very nice, but they didn't hit all the boxes or the one most important box. They had a couple of amenities but not as much as the place. They don't have as large a staff. It's not bright. There weren't as many windows as I would have liked. It's more of an older building. The layout of the building is not as great as I would have liked to have seen for an Alzheimer's unit. It's more like apartments with a big room at the end of the hall where they can get together where everybody opens the door and they're out into a community area. "

"The staff at Adelaide are dedicated and loving (despite the full PPE). Residents have access to a physician, a psychiatrist, dental, podiatry, and a host of other support services and amenities on-site. The nurses and family liaison assist with organizing the support. Adelaide looks quite a bit a little different that other Memory Care facilities I visited. The natural light is abundant! The community also has access to internal courtyards which the residents (and visiting families) use frequently. Expensive but the extra benefits are clear."

"The staff is very nice at Prospect House. I've been there twice. I have been working with the staff and marketing director over there for about a month now. The latter has been more than helpful even beyond what I initially asked for. The staff has been extremely helpful, very kind and compassionate. "

"My dad is staying now in Evans Park at Newton Corner. So far everything has gone really well. I just helped him transitioned a little bit there. The facilities are great. The food there tastes really good. He got a one-bedroom little apartment with a kitchenette, a freezer and a sink. It also has a bathroom and a bedroom. People working there are also very nice. So far our experience with Evans Park has been pretty good. "

"Benchmark at Hanover was like staying at a Hampton Inn. It was wonderful. The woman who gave me the tour was excellent in taking me around and making sure that I saw all the available things. They had a gym, a salon, a courtyard, and dining rooms. It was located right near Hanover Mall, and it was right near the highway exit where they could be taken to either South Shore Hospital or BID Jordan Hospital in Plymouth."

"My parents will be moving to The Residences at Wingate. It's a relatively new place at only three years old. It has a very nice, clean feeling, a lot of lights, very open, and on the smaller side. I think there are 48 rooms. The staff was very positive. We met the executive director first and then the person who helps new people, and they were both excellent. We had lunch in the dining room and the staff was very friendly and nice. Everybody is doing a very good job. They have a nice dining room. I'm a chef, so I am very particular about food, but it's very well cooked. Everything was good. "
