The people who look after my mother are incredibly kind and loving. We've used other agencies and had other folks in our home that are just there to go through the motions... Visiting Angels provide TRUE companionship for the elderly. They talk, the listen, they care and the respond. Most importantly for me is that I have a great caseworker who keeps me in the loop with things that occur in the house. She is a great resource for suggestions on how to handle tricky situations and also a great resource to coordinate things like food deliveries and other things that take place in the house while I am away. If you are reading this you have a loved one that needs support, it is a stressful situation and you sometimes feel like anything you do will be a mistake. I'm here to say that Visiting Angels eliminated so much of that anxiety for my family. Please engage with them and see how they can do the same for you.

Atrocious. Incredibly weak and inconsistent medical oversight leads to haphazard care including…read moremedicines administered, food safety, therapy (or lack thereof). Patients crying to be transported simply from their chair into bed for 2 hours. Not an exaggeration. Witnessed multiple times. While there are exceptions, staff can be very rude, defensive, flippant, deflecting. US News quality reviews very inaccurate & misleading from what we've witnessed. Terrible. If this is one of the better skilled nursing and rehab hospitals in the greater Boston area, we're in a very sad state

Heartbreaking Experience…read more I honestly wouldn't recommend this Rehab to anyone. The staff here move incredibly slow and seem overwhelmed all the time. Most of the nurses are retired and just don't have the energy or attentiveness that patients need. There are no staff doctors, only nurse practitioners, and it feels like there's no real leadership or plan in place for anything. There's no protocol for emergencies -- during a fire alarm, everyone looked confused about what to do. We also had two power outages in one week, and instead of fixing the issue or using proper backup power, they handed out battery-operated LED lights to patients. It was honestly shocking.Language barrier is an issue especially when reciting the menu options The worst part is how long it takes to get help. I've seen patients left sitting in their own feces for up to 40 minutes before anyone came. No one deserves that. It breaks my heart to see people treated this way when they're supposed to be cared for and respected in their later years. This place seriously needs to be inspected and held accountable. Families deserve better, and so do the people living here.

When my mother moved into the Gables she experienced an enhanced assisted living environment for retired individuals. From daily check-ins with staff, to full meal and bistro dining options, housekeeping, maintenance, home care aids, and transportation services the Gables truly has thought of everything you might need at some point during your residence with them. Lovely apartments with easy access to elevators and community areas, residents truly have the independence they desire along with the personal and home services they require. The Gables coordinates additional home care and nursing services with other agencies making sure residents have the care and medical supervision they may need.

A dedicated bus can be reserved to take residents to medical appointments in addition to transporting groups to outings, such as to a restaurant or shopping center or museum. Seasonal outings are offered including foliage rides, Holiday light viewing, and trips of all kinds in the surrounding communities. New activities such as Life Stories, Tech Support, a Blood Pressure clinic, and Flu and COVID Vaccine clinics have been added to their schedule. This alludes to what is possibly the best feature of the Gables - the plethora of fun, social activities that are available on a daily basis.

Monthly birthday parties and weekly happy hours are held for those who want to chill with a nice glass of wine. And last but not least the key to all the wonderful features at the Gables is their dedicated and compassionate staff, who truly make an effort each and every day to provide a welcoming and caring environment to everyone here.

He was a quite person but he met so many wonderful people residents and staff that brought him out of his shell. Bingo, outside trips to restaurants, food shopping and trips to museums, musicals, and boat rides made his day. When he could no longer do activities, the staff was amazing helping him to get around and keeping his spirits up! We as a family had so much support, love, and caring from the staff we felt like family.
