Nursing Home Communities in Fitchburg, MA

"My mom was at Wachussett for a year and a half. I recommend this facilty to anyone who wants great care for their loved ones. The staff is amazing from the nurses, activity aides, and cnas. They have a great housekeeping staff . The food and menu are very good as well. I can't say enough how happy we were with her all around care there. It really felt like family there for my mom and ourselves. Thank you to everyone at Wachussett."

"The overall level of care was higher than the rehab hospital my friend was previously at !"

"My child has resided in Seven Hills at Groton for 9 years. SH is an amazing facility! It is a safe, clean, nuturing & educational centered environment for the Pediatric patient who has severe disabilities and who needs 24/7 medical care. Their days are FILLED with interaction and include a modified school day. Here they receive PT,OT,Visual stimulation,music & art therpy, swimming etc. etc. The teachers, nurses and CNAs are second to NONE! This place takes the difficult task of realizing that there is NO WAY that you can meet the needs of your medically fragile child and turns all your fears into complete reassurance that your child receives the BEST possible services , care and quality of life. There is NO better facility on this Earth! "

"The staff is amazing! They are interactive with patients and supportive of family members. The safety and wellbeing of residents is a priority , and facility is clean and cheerful ! It is always heart wrenching to have to place a loved one into someone else care , but this has been a gift in this pandemic to have a place where my mother is safe and cared for. They try to do as many fun activities as possible. In these very stressful times I have never worried that her care was not a top priority for the staff."

"When you come in the door, the reception is always pleasant at Sterling Healthcare Nursing and Rehab. They make me comfortable and welcome, and it is just a lovely place. The administration is good. The food is excellent, and the nursing care is very good. We really have made a good decision. You feel good, and I like everything about it. The activities group is excellent. There is something going on all the time. It's a good size place, and what they do is amazing. "

"The care is wonderful The Staff ...well.... we just can't say enough about them they are like family. The atmospher is pleasant and very well maintained we are so happy we visited several facilities and have alot to compare. Mom loves it and seems very happy. Thank God!!! "

"The entire staff are excellent care givers and are very compassionate towards the patients and family. I have the utmost respect for these healthcare workers. It’s a hard job but they are extremely skilled"

"My mother is a resident here. As my mother would say "they stand on their heads to please you and would do anything for you". My family has nothing but praise for the Knollwood Nursing Center. This place is immaculate and BEAUTIFUL inside and out. "

"I have been a patient for over two months and can’t say enough about the care they provide. They have a new cook who is wonderful and the food is great. I’ve already decided that if and when the time comes I would chose this nursing home. I love all the aids and nurses they treat you with respect. I give the place a thumbs up "

"I rated this home a 3 because there was some good and some not so good areas in this home. As soon as I entered the home, the first thing I saw as I walked down the halls was some elderly residents just sitting in wheelchairs outside their room, some beds along the corridor, it felt too much like a sterile hospital to me rather than a "home". There was a big kitchen and the food did look nourishing and tasty. I saw an activity center that seemed like it had some fun activities for the residents there, those that wanted to participate anyway. The personnel seemed very friendly and helpful. There was an emergency there while I was there and the response was very quick. I didn't seen any residents sitting around needing/wanting help with no response from the personnel.All in all, I thought this was a decent place for residents, but I do think it could use a facelift. I think it could be made to be more "homey" by adding warm colors on the windows, blankets, things like that. I just thought it was too "white" and sterile looking. If I were looking to place someone in my family in a facility like this, I think I would do more researching after touring this place...somewhere that's not so "hospital-like". "

"My sister was at Crestwood with stage 4 lung cancer. At first she had reservations about being there because the facility is old but the staff soon won her over. The staff was amazing! They helped her and our family through a difficult time. "

"The Elms Care and Rehabilitation Center was great to my grandfather, myself and the rest of my family. The staff made everybody feel really comfortable, even with my grandfather being very tough to deal with at that point. He was there for a few weeks after he received treatment at the hospital for lung cancer. Sadly, he went home and received hospice care after and passed away shortly after. The staff at the assisted living facility was very wonderful to all of us. "

"I looked at Greenbriar (Kindred Transitional Care and Rehabilitation), and everything looked good, but it was not going to accommodate the things that we needed. However, they had a rehab for the people who were off from surgery as it is a nursing home. They answered all my questions. "

"My mom was at the Odd Fellows Home and I would like to thank everyone who took care of her. Everyone was very caring and compassionate. The staff were very informative at her Care Plan meetings. The Rehab Department did a wonderful job getting her to get up and walk. (which is no easy task). The nursing staff always checked in with her to see if she needed anything. The kitchen did a great job with her meals (because she is a picky eater). Thank you from the bottom of my heart. "
