I arrived at Laurelwood on March 10th, 2023 after several weeks in the hospital and rehab following a stroke on 1/29/23. My intention in coming to Laurelwood is to solidify the recovery progress I have made as well as making additional progress so that I can return to my home and live independently. Laurelwood was the perfect choice for me. Wonderful staff, at all levels, who all have kind and generous spirits... Delicious food and a kitchen team who will always make you an "off menu item" if you do not like what they are serving. Great fellow residents. A mix of ages and life experiences who warmly greet you and welcome you to join them. Incredible Activities Director and team. You can be as busy or quiet as suits you on any given day. Well done Laurelwood team!

The team at Laurelwood has made the transition for my mother so smooth. They welcomed her into their family at Laurelwood. The personal care is exceptional. I know my mother is in good hands.

My father moved in July 2022 after living alone for 5 years since my mother passed. He was becoming lonely and forgetful. He was very active his whole life and in the community he moved from. He has blossomed at Laurelwood and continues to be happy every day! The staff are outstanding from marketing/sales, nursing, physician, dining and cleaning services and front desk. Everyone I encounter is pleasant, professional and cares about their residents. There is a daily posting of events from morning to evening and something for everyone. He even started his own group! He has met new friends and feels comfortable in a new place. A shuttle takes them to the market and local events. They continue to be proactive with COVID precautions and ensuring the residents and staff are protected. My family and I have peace of mind knowing our father is safe and enjoying his senior years. I am a nurse and highly recommend Laurelwood for your loved ones!

We moved my father into assisted living a few months ago and, since being at Laurelwood, he’s thrived and has become the best version of himself in many years! This is absolutely a credit to the amazingly caring and uplifting staff, the beautiful and very well maintained property, and the uplifting interactions between the residents and staff. EVERYONE is ALWAYS welcoming and positive, and it’s such a relief to know that my dad is in great hands, happily enjoying life again! Laurelwood also always has lots of fun opportunities for the people living there and their families… I truly love visiting! Thank you, Laurelwood, for making a life-changing transition such a pleasant, positive, and easy experience!

My name is Deborah Rogers, I own a hospice and home care company and have clients in Laurelwood at the Pine Hills. In working at this facility over the past few years, I have had nothing but great experiences with the facility and staff. Being in the hospice and home care business for many years, I have been in many different facilities, and Laurelwood is by far the best I have had the pleasure of working in! Especially in these hard times over the past year, it has been nothing short of amazing work this facility does to keep its patients and workers safe and healthy. Its an honor to be apart of this community and Im proud to say I work with these great people! I highly recommend Laurelwood at the Pine Hills to anyone looking to live or work in a safe and positive community!

Laurelwood does a great job of integrating independent and assisted living. This community is truly unique in that a person (or a couple) can rent a beautiful apartment, with a full kitchen if they want, and age-in-place. Adding services to accommodate changing care needs is fluid so residents can have peace of mind that they will be well-cared-for. The social programs and active adult learning opportunities are engaging and creative, even with the restrictions COVID has presented. Brenda Gellar is a wonderful representative of the community as she is easy to relate to and is clearly knowledgeable. We have had many clients move into Laurelwood over the years and look forward to having many more.

Laurelwood at the Pinehills is a wonderful place for seniors. My family moved our mother there three years ago and we are thrilled with the care and attention she has received. The health care has given us peace of mind as they not only monitor her meds but also call us whenever there is a problem and we work together for a solution. There is a plethora of amenities and activities available to interest any senior. They may participate in art classes, fitness center, movies or lectures in the theater, a full service salon, and a pub for evening get togethers. My mother has gone to several lectures and made some new friends at pub nights. We were thrilled. The building itself is beautiful inside and out but it is the kindness and caring the staff shows to my mother that gives us peace of mind. If you are looking for a safe, caring and beautiful place for a senior in your family, I would highly recommend you make a trip to Laurelwood. It has been the best decision our family made to keep our mother safe and happy.

I highly recommend Laurelwood and Avita living! My Mom lived in both the assisted living area of Laurelwood and in Avita Memory Care!The amazing employees gave my Mom an enormous amount of attention and involved her in all of the activities! Between ice cream parties, card games, movie nights in the theatre, outdoor walks along the flower filled paths, visiting museums, going to a restaurant for lunch, hitting balls at a driving range or just sitting by the Cape Cod Canal on a warm summer day to watch the boats cruise by, Moms last years of her life were fulfilled with fun, laughter and care! Alzheimers is a heart-wrenching disease and the Avita caregivers helped not just Mom but also myself, navigate thorough, with compassion and dignity! I could never thank them enough! All of the employees of Laurelwood, Avita become extended family! They care not just for your loved one, but for your whole family!

When you call the front desk, someone answers Its a great day at Laurelwood! I know this is just a line, but every time I interact with a member of staff, I know that they are doing everything they can to make it a good day for my parents. The staff know every residents name, pay close attention to their needs, and are clearly invested in their health and wellbeing. Even during very stressful times with the pandemic, my family and I have been repeatedly impressed by the communication and care we have received from every person we interact with at Laurelwood, all the way up to the management team. The work they do has allowed my family to breathe a huge sigh of relief, because my parents are safe in a beautiful facility with people who really care. Highly recommend!

No words can describe the kindness and compassion the entire staff showed as my mother progressed through Alzheimers. She was incredibly well taken care of and the communication with me was beyond reproach. I could not recommend Laurelwood more highly.

Laurelwood Assisted Living, and its staff, is an amazing organization that treats and cares for their residents as if they are extensions of their own families. The Wellness staff (nursing department), is the most caring and competent group of of professional health care workers that any resident or family could wish to find in an assisted living facility. The management is professional, personal, and lead with competence and heart. Even the maintenance department is responsive to any and all requests. Perhaps, and most noteworthy, is the manner in which each and every member of the team of professionals make every effort to provide a home like atmosphere. Residents are treated with dignity, respect and valued for whatever they bring to the community. In these past ten months, Laurelwood has provided consistent and transparent communication to their residents and families. The members of their staff have consistently provided superb care and concern for all their residents. They have provided exhaustive efforts in keeping their residents safe during this pandemic. They have been fluid and inventive with managing meals, family visits, activities and all manner of well being for the people entrusted to their care. Laurelwood is a superior assisted living facility, and when put to the unimaginable challenges of this past year, they continue to be deserving of both praise and admiration.

My mother and father recently moved into Laurelwood and we do not have enough great things to say. The staff, the facilities the other residences are more than was expected. With everything going on during Covid they have been more than accommodating. Would recommend to my closest friends and family.

My husband and I moved into Laurelwood over a year ago because of the beautiful setting in the Pine Hills and after touring numerous other facilities. We found the management and staff to be exceptional in making us feel like family and that this could be our new home.They are very kind, caring and competent always ready to help in any way.Since our move here my husbands Parkinsons accompanied by its dementia progressed to the point that it was necessary for him to move to Aveda, the memory care unit. I have been so very pleased with the care that he is receiving there. Alison, the program director, does a fantastic job providing the residents with creative, educational, challenging, and fun activities all day long which is no easy feat. Be sure to pick up the monthly newsletter to see whats offered.I am still upstairs in an independent apartment and our activities director Dana, does an equally outstanding job of keeping us happy through a variety of fun filled challenging activities.Throughout this challenging times she has managed to come up with some very creative ideas to keep us busy. Our monthly newsletter will help you to see what a great job she is doing.I am so happy that I am here near my husband and that we can both continue to live an active and happy life enjoying our new friends and wonderful people here at Laurelwood.

My sister, who was living alone out of state, developed a form of dementia. She knew she would need to find an assisted living facility near her relatives in Massachusetts . Our family did quite a bit of research into various facilities in MA; but we were unsure what would be the proper choice. A friend recommended Laurelwood. We visited and were impressed with how upbeat everyone was. Seven months later my sister moved into Laurelwood and was warmly received. In the beginning we were all apprehensive about how this major change would affect my sisters well being.We visit her quite often, she is very happy to be living there, has told me everyone at Laurelwood is extremely nice, and she feels safer than she has felt in years. We are extremely satisfied with the care she is receiving at Laurelwood.

My mom has been a resident for almost two years. I cant say enough good things about how wonderful the staff is and the numerous friendships she has made with other residents. The activity schedule is fulfilling and she goes on numerous trips outside the facility via their well-equipped van. She is thriving at Laurelwood!

I want to give a much deserved shout-out to Culinary Director Suzie. My parents moved to Laurelwood a few years ago and have received excellent care. They used to LOVE it when I would send chocolate covered strawberries on special occasions. Due to Covid-19 it wasnt possible to keep up that tradition. Suzie has gone personally out of her way to make absolutely beautiful and delicious chocolate covered strawberries with all the toppings possible for my Dad. His face was glowing today when they were personally delivered on his 92 birthday. My Dad always encouraged his 8 children to go the extra mile, and always leave them smiling. That is what Suzie does for my Dad and Ill never forget it!

What a wonderful home LAURELWOOD was for my husband. The Avita Memory Unit was more than just an apartment where he could live securely, it was our family. The community and environment of Avita and indeed, Laurelwood, provided a physical environment that was in itself a treatment for those with memory issues. The open floor plan adds a welcome sense of light and space. The wonderful enclosed yard a place to enjoy independence and to watch the birds flitting to and from the bird feeders, as well as place to care for flowers and vegetables. The many activities of trips, music, games, art, dancing, movies and so much more kept us both engaged cognitively and physically. But above all, the staff with Allison at its helm were family. Their loving care shines in all that they do. They truly understand the needs of the residents and how to help when challenging behaviors mean the person has some unmet need. I wish I could mention each one by name as they all deserve praise for the work they do, but I would not want to leave anyone out. That also goes for those in the offices, kitchens, cleaning maintenance staff. Nothing is perfect but Laurelwood comes mighty close

Im not sure where to begin because our experience from the first phone call we placed was truly the best for my familys journey. We had known for a while that we should have made a plan for the future, but we didnt. After all, what are the chances that a 97-year-old woman living on her own in an isolated area will ever need a change? But the day came and some calls needed to be made so the first one placed was to DEB HYSON at Laurelwood. Deborah has always been held in the highest regard for her dedication to her profession and extensive knowledge of family dynamics. We absolutely were expecting superior service, but what we received was well above that level. Beginning with Debbie, the experience and procedures couldnt have been any easier or more seamless. And in less than 24 hours our mother was situated in a lovely unit in this community and entirely welcomed by the management, the staff, and the residents. Sue McKenna, the Executive Director was at the front door when we arrived and remained involved throughout the entire transition. As our family came and went (constantly! ),we all began to feel like it was our community. Truly more than any of us couldve ever asked for!

The residents make Laurelwood a great place to live. We are enormously supported by the professional staff who are superior and caring. Having lived in Pinehills with my husband for 19 years, moving to Laurelwood is certainly a residence I felt comfort moving to.

It is the best place for caring for its residents . My husband has been in memory care and is quite happy. The atmosphere is lovely and all of the staff are friendly and accommodating. The food is excellent. I had a few meals with my husband and all were served with linen tablecloths and napkins. First class.It is truly a home away from home.

From day one our Uncle Tommy has been very happy in Laurelwood. From the senior staff down, the communication with us and the care and happiness of our uncle has been shown on a daily basis. The accommodation, food, range of activities and administration have been excellent. When you have a family member you love with such a debilitating illness it is important to have a facility like Laurelwood, for peace of mind. Thank you all.

My wife and I searched for over a year to find the right place for us. When we found Laurelwood and moved in a few years ago, it exceeded our expectations in every respect. We have a quality lifestyle here that includes an excellent staff, great friends, and creative programs. It is walking distance to a village, a world class star and Pinehills biking and walking trails. We feel lucky to have found Laurelwood as our retirement home.
