Waltham Crossing is a very nice facility and everyone was kind and patient with us. The only issue (to us) was the age of the patience; my sister-in-law is younger than those in memory care and we felt that might deter her from involving herself with the community.

Overall, very good. I think they need more caregivers. Sometimes my mom had to wait too long for help. She only lived there 2 weeks before she had to go in the hospital and then passed away. They still made us pay for an additional 15 days per policy which is longer than she even lived there. They could have and should have made an exception under the circumstances.

A very homelike environment with multiple cozy common areas. Currently renovating apartments as they become available. Many of the residents we encountered during the tour seemed happy and ready to engage. Discussion focused on individualizing a plan for Mom that addressed her specific quality of life issues, both medical and behavioral. Overall, we left with a very positive regard for Ashland.

I toured the Birches facility and grounds this past week in addition to two other residential facilities that say they can care for patients with dementia. No comparison! Everything about The Birches is designed to help patients with dementia live as fully as possible. It is quite a bit more expensive than the other places I looked at but you get much more for your money. When the time is right, I will definitely look to The Birches as a residence for my husband who has Lewy Body dementia

I met with [name removed] and we discussed my mother's needs and she explained the amenities of The Branches. During my tour, I noticed the entire downstairs living area was open and inviting. The dining room was spacious and the was a patio visible through the back windows. The private studio has a connecting living space with the next door neighbor which was something new to me. I can see that this might help residents venture out into the community, but not sure that this would work for mom. This is something to consider and I am hoping to bring her for a visit to see her reaction to this concept.
