Nursing Home Communities in Worcester, MA

"This is a very nice place, very comfortable. This is a very clean facility probably the cleanest I have ever seen. Everyone here is very pleasant. "

"My mother was at Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital. The staff was very nice. She loved the food up there. She ate everything that they gave her, but I would never have eaten it when I saw it. They did rehab twice a day in the beginning and then she felt she was too weak to do them after a week or two. They would do them right before lunch and then at 3:00, which were bad times for her because she usually falls asleep during those times. So, they did them at 9:00 in the morning and right after lunch at 1:30, and then she was doing better. They were very accommodating."

"We did get a tour of Holy Trinity Nursing & Rehab. The staff is very helpful, they answered our questions, everyone looked very pleasant, and they all spoke with us, so we were impressed. The rooms were very nice, very bright, and the sun would come in. She would have a dresser, closet space, and a bathroom. One of the other things I like was an outside area. In the summer, they would have live bands come in, so I think that's something my mother would enjoy. We didn't see regular dining room, but we saw one that's kind of a private area where you can go on order off a menu. This is probably our first choice for my mother. "

"My husband moved into the Blaire House of Worcester under the memory care unit. The care they give is excellent. They care about the residents. The place looks a little rough, but it will be updated eventually. They do a great job. They do everything according to the state laws, as they're supposed to. So, I always know what's happening, or if they need something, they'll call me. They're good at communicating. They have two choices for each meal. It's not like a focus point, but they ensure people eat. They do crafts, depending on the level of dementia of the person. They always have music. They have religious people come in and do little services, and they have arts and crafts. They have more word searches and trivia stuff, but I don't think many people can do that. They're like old hospital beds. Right now, they have rooms with one to four people, but it will only be one or two people per room when they renovate it. They got a sink in there and lockers for their stuff."

"My Mom moved there recently and is very happy with her room and likes the staff. Very nice well kept place."

"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. "

"They are very attentive at Jewish Healthcare Center. My mother-in-law is an in-patient right now, and she is receiving rehab care. They help her with everything that she needs, and she is very comfortable. Sanitation is excellent. The food is very good. The rooms are spacious. She is in a private room. "

"My grandmother moved into Beaumont last February. She's now in the long-term care. They've been very good, and they worked on her for a few months now. The staff is very responsive, professional, caring, and helpful. They have activities, they play Bingo, they do arts and crafts, and they sing."

"The Alzheimer's unit at this facility is designed very thoughtfully to create an environment to help ease the anxiety of the residents. The exits are disguised to relieve the feeling of being trapped and the decor is warm and "homey" rather than stark and depressing like a hospital. The unit includes several different rooms that allow for different activities and comfortable environments to sit and visit with residents. There are also private rooms that were available for special occasions or sensitive situations. I specifically enjoyed the outdoor courtyard that was completely enclosed within the unit so residents to could enjoy the fresh air whenever they choose. The staff members are warm, compassionate, patient, and gentle people. I believe they genuinely cared for my grandmother and did everything they could to make her comfortable and relaxed. My family and I were so grateful for all they did during a very difficult and emotional time. "

"My mother has been living in Notre Dame du Lac for around five months now. She is in the memory care unit. I think the place is very clean. It's quiet, and I think they're organized. The girls are good with the residents. They try to keep them busy, so they have arts and crafts. This is what we wanted for her, so she could feel better about spending her day. They're all private, big rooms. She can fit a couch in there. She's got a table and bookcases. There's drawers built into the wall. She's got a big, queen bed that is very roomy. She's very comfortable. They have a dining area, a kitchen, and a TV area. That's where they do the little things. They get off the unit, and they go to church every day. There's a mass everyday. We went in on Sunday, and she was in church. It's a nice big chapel. They have a couple of small courtyards around, shaded from the summer trees and flowers. It is very pretty."

"I only have the highest recommendation for this skilled nursing home, Our mother was at another facility the had a great reputation, but it was anything but great for our mother. She ended up with a terrible bed sore, and was not recovering like they said she would. I ran into a woman who works for Autumn Village and I asked her how their rehab program was. After speaking with her, we decided to move our mother ...in what seemed like no time, her wound was healed, and she was up walking and getting the right type of therapy. She is home now, thanks to the caring staff at Autumn Village! "

"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 broke my foot and ankle in a very bad way i was in rehab for a long while. The physical therapists were amazing,as were the people who helped me with paperwork and the people who gave me my meds top notch. I wish i had all of of their names . But my prime therapist was Bonnie she was awesome and very knowledgeable about her profession and very easy to talk to and ask questions.Because of Bonnie and the other therapists and staff I am doing great hats off, a job well done. Randy"

"The Shrewsbury Rehabilitation Facility was amazing, it helped me get back on my feet after my ankle surgery. I spent 2 1/2 months and want to thank the staff for helping me over and above what I needed. The facility was clean and kept nicely. I want to give a special thank you to Heather, Brad, Karen, Attila, Rosie, Maryann, and all the nursing staff. I would recommend your facility with 2 thumbs up. Thank you for all your support."
