Good experience. Positive vibes. Definitely recommend.

[name removed] was very good in explaining what to look for in memory care. (It helped me decide against another place.)I like the fact that the apartment is equipped with drawers so that I didn't have to buy furniture. It also makes sense to not have a kitchen. People in Memory Care should not cook!!!! Not safe. The director, [name removed], is so lively, positive, and engaging. Also, [name removed] and [name removed].

Our family would recommend the branches of Marlboro for your loved one.

The intake staff were great and things seem to be going well so far, She did say they serve too much fish but she is super picky. Cleanliness is great. Size of the room to us is what she needs but she is still adjusting to downsizing from a 2br 2 bath condo with full kitchen. so it will take time. But it is all appropriate for her situation.

Things to watch out for when out The Branches

Make they read everything thoroughly, there were a lot of surprise charges i felt should have been explained up front, like a [removed dollar amount] admin fee and [removed dollar amount] fee if resident decided to eat in there room. Also if going for respite care, get an outline of what is covered, as most of what we thought was covered was not. Also do not leave anything personal lying around like OTC meds, as the nursing staff thinks it is OK to search residents belongings in dressers etc.

The most caring community for your loved ones

Staff are excellent. Room is good size but limit what you can have. Activity Director engaged with residents all day. She is excellent . Could use more activities directed for the men. Food on Memory side called Harbor is sometimes excellent and then just ok. Not always enough for residents. Need more comfortable chairs for visitors. Memory Director is excellent and very engaging. Sometimes difficult to leave have to wait for staff member to escort you out when not caring for resident. Private pay and very pricy. Plan on paying the max once you are there a couple of months. Can't say how wonderful, Professional and Caring staff are. Don't have to be told how to do their job. They really care. Not always clear who is in charge during different shifts when directors are not there. Place is so clean and so are the residents.

Friendly staff

The reason I gave it a 5 was because of what they were able to offer that matched what they SAID they would give. The staff is very enthusiastic. Not only what they do in morning activities and afternoon activities by engaging each person individually but they keep me informed of changes as they incorporated my mom and sister into their community.

Overall A Nice Community

Overall experience for my Dad (who is in the memory care wing is very good). All staff are very friendly and helpful in addressing issues that come up. The facility has activities throughout the day for residents to keep them engaged, such as drawing and word games. There is a snack time at 3:00 p.m., there are movies to watch in the afternoon and evenings. During the fall/spring seasons, there are trips to local museums. Last year during the summer, my Dad attended a baseball game at the College of the Holy Cross. Hourly checks are conducted while residents are sleeping. The facility is kept very clean. Dining rooms are nice. My Dad likes the food that is offered. There is a salon on the premises. Additionally, you can sign up for on the premises medical, dental and podiatric services. I have done this for my Dad and am very satisfied.

Not a good experience

Staff under qualified - poor judgement leading to poor decision making resulting in atrocious outcomes for resident. They ultimately evicted resident due to their admitted inability to provide adequate care.

The Branches of Marlboro

Exceeds expectations in all areas. The Branches has been a great experience so far in all areas. The transfer from [community name removed] to Branches was made easy by [name removed] the sales person and the Directors. Good communication, care, activities, and nursing and support staff has been wonderful.

Very pleased

I give the branches at Marlboro a 10 out of 10 in all categories. It was pricey but fortunately I had the money... I wish everyone could receive that kind of care and attention to detail. I loved the direct communication, and because we had an unfortunate situation, I appreciated the confidentiality. [name removed] was very happy there.

We appreciated very much the helpfulness of staff at all levels, and appreciated the quality of care. I marked quality down to 4 because of shortage of staff, but this is a common problem of all places. We were Very happy with our loved one's experience there at The Branches of Marlborough.

Definitely Recommend

The cleanliness of the facility was big in our decision. The outdoor grounds were and always are beautifully landscaped and take care of. The layout of the rooms are better than others I have seen. They allowed my stepmother with Alzheimer's live with my father in assisted living for 6 months to ease the trauma of moving. They worked with us where other homes wouldn't. I would definitely recommend.

Our families experience

I'm not very happy with them. They welcomed my loved one with open arms after performing a nursing assessment expressing great confidence they could meet her needs. Within a month they changed their minds and declared they could no longer safely care for her, forcing us to find another facility for my loved one.

overall nice, staff is rushed and harried but friendly

The facility is clean and well maintained and the food is quite good. There's a good range of services for a small facility. The staff (both direct care staff and upper level staff) always seem a little harried, although mostly friendly enough. My complaints are first world problems, like laundry getting stuffed in random drawers instead of in the drawers I've carefully labeled. The biggest issue is that mom needs an "escort" (someone to push her wheelchair) so she has to wait for someone to come get her to bring her to activities, meals, etc. (This increases her required level of care so we do pay for this.) Which means she can't share meals with friends or social events easily...often when she arrives everyone is wrapping up. She has mostly given up on trying to make it to the various social programming they offer because she has to call someone to come get her and then wait.

Tips for evaluating your community options.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Massachusetts’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Massachusetts’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
