Maplewood is great
All 5s except activities maybe a 4: more variety would be good or more field trips. What we like the most about Maplewood is the caring welcoming people (both staff and residents). Yes, we would recommend this community to other families!

I am a resident at this facility and I was surprised to find it rated so highly. The warm, friendly feeling goes away once you've lived here a bit but my biggest complaints are that the food is always overcooked and cold, and the director in charge never gives a straight response or does any follow through. Please fix this!!! I have heard the same complaints since the day i moved in!!!

Acceptable, could be a better place
The top administration changed in the beginning of the year. Changes were made. Lots of employees have left, other employees clearly not happy. Many new people there. You do not know who will be taking care of your loved one. Many are brand new...a changing of staff is confusing for those in memory care. Food is not served warm sometimes, my father has said everything is too bland. They do have many activities.

Not transparent/Website extremely misleading
If you read over the website or take a tour the place sounds too good to be true and it is. What they sell in terms of care, assistance and programming vs what they actually deliver are VERY very different. If you start asking questions you will get bounced from one person to the next. The director of Nursing will tell you to talk to the memory care coordinator who will then say it's a clinical decision. round and round... Over the course of weeks I spent there with a parent who was paying for the highest level of care, I learned first hand that just about everything they claimed during our tour was false and they have no problem leaving someone in there room alone all day. Not waking them for meals and just leaving a tray of food in the room to get cold. When your loved one begs you to get out of there because they're lonely and depressed you should listen. My loved family member pleaded not to be left to die alone there because that is how they felt there.

Our families experience
Cleanliness...I would give them a 5...very clean...smells good. I would give them a 5...the aides...the nurses...even the house keeping always say hello. When it comes to the activities, my Dad doesn't do any. Price just went up [fee removed] a month. I do think the food could be a little better or more care can come when a different entree is ordered. Overall we are happy w the care my Dad receives. There are many nice aides and nurses. I think as long as you visit your loved one and are involved in their care you will be happy w Maplewood.

The team at Maplewood is the best. They are caring and attentive, focused on the clients needs and that of the family support group. They listen, they respond and act quickly, and are genuinely warm and welcoming. Im very happy that we found a place that Dad likes, the food is excellent, and the neighborhood feel keeps him engaged.

Coming to Maplewood at Newton was the best decision!
I felt like I didn't have any options, was experiencing some memory loss and wasn't coping well. My niece suggested Maplewood at Newton. I've been here seven months now an the transition was easier than I expected because everyone here is so very kind. Coming here was the best decision!

I have been a resident here at Maplewood of Newton for a few years. From the beginning with the COVID pandemic. I found the atmosphere to be welcoming and friendly. The care and concerns of the staff were spot on. The maintenance men were great when needed. All in all it has been a pleasant experience. I am grateful. High praise for all.

Daughter of Resident
It was a beautiful place and was told the level of care would meet my mothers needs. Although it's aesthetically beautiful, the level of care is not as strong as they present. One person on duty for many residents. Short staffed. Activities are not well planned and no encouragement to participate in the limited ones they have. No outdoor focus in beautiful weather. Dining room is warm and pretty but short staffed and no communication or coaching/prompting on menu items for those who need it. It's just "what do you want to eat"? If the person can't articulate or is confused they get very limited food. Long wait times. Administration is not on the ball either. Issues moving in. So overall not so impressed.

Grateful.
Our parents, ages 89 and 94, moved into Maplewood at Newtown a year ago. Although it was initially an up and down journey for them to select a community, make a commitment to actually move, eventually sell their home, and navigate an independent living lifestyle -- they are now one year into their transition with absolutely no regrets. Maplewood at Newtown is a lovely facility with sincere, caring staff and plenty of activities. The staff is thoughtful and eager to accommodate their personal preferences to reflect their interests and habits. One example has been that our father was able to be a central contributor to the outdoor garden and there is now a "Green Thumb Club" which has been a lifesaver for him and also a great community-builder. They have met so many friends among both the residents and staff --and really are part of a community. There is always activity and others to be with right outside their door. Above all else, we, their children, are pleased they are able to age in

Warm and friendly
From the moment I stepped into this community, I felt the warmth and friendly atmosphere. Employees care about the residents and each other. There is a true sense of community that sets this place apart from the rest. Residents are also very kind and supportive to one another, always eager to welcome the newcomers

I moved from a home I had been in for 50 years, with a river and memories of grown children. Maplewood quickly turned into my new home. The great feelings and creature comforts start with the executive directors and the feelings of camaraderie spread to the staff and residents.. Maplewood is a place of love. Fulfilled physical needs good. Any senior would blossom here.
