Definitely would recommend to a friend.

I like how clean the facility is. They are prompt with medications. The food could be a little better as far as specific diets for patients. Also when I brought food in the other day to eat with my family member, I was instructed we had to eat outside, which I thought was strange. I think there could be a little more activities, maybe some walking instead of in-place aerobics. But other than that, we're happy with [name removed] and with the head nurse. Everyone has been very good and very prompt. When my family member had a fall, they took appropriate and timely action. And I've been very happy with their service overall.

Tour experience

We had a good tour experience with Whitney Place. The guy who was showing us around was more laid back and cool and just not as outgoing as the place we ended up choosing. The setting was also not as pretty here.

I'm very comfortable here. They're very professional. The people are very friendly and helpful. It's clean and safe. I like my apartment very much. It's modern and has been well taken care of. It almost feels like a new house.

Great Place to LIve

My loved one is doing well and likes it there. Overall the staff are good and we're satisfied. They do a good job of trying to keep people engaged with good activities. Overall it's a friendly, good environment to live in. I never give 5s (I think there's always room for improvement). But they're doing a good job with everything.

Tour of Whitney Place

We had a good tour experience with Whitney Place. It seemed like a great facility to have a loved one in. The room layout was strange which was why we decided to look further.

Whitney Place

The community spaces at Whitney Place always looks well kept during my weekly visits. In terms of the staff, my mother mentioned some of the people were very nice and others she would say were not. My mother has always spoken very highly of the activities staff, they are very kind and inclusive and have always made her day. They have also tired very hard during the community lock down to FaceTime with families and have been working even harder than they were before. They could, however, do a little better with communicating with the families on a more regular basis.

Overall, we're happy, but communication could be improved

The community did a good job of keeping my mom safe and there have been no cases of Covid-19. They don't communicate with the resident's families well enough. We receive almost no communication or information about my mother's care. We have to reach out ourselves and ask the direct in order for us to get anything from the staff.

I had a nice experience with my tour of this community. Everyone was nice, and kind to my family, and I. The community was nice, and clean from what I saw. The staff I met was nice, and helpful. They answered my questions, and my tour was a good one overall.

Cheerful Place

Whitney Place at Natick is a cheerful and clean community. The staff is friendly and caring and seem to be attentive to his care needs. I have not yet dined at the community, but the meals that they provide seem average, they do not offer the variety my father in law had at the last community. There are activities that the staff encourages the residents to participate in. The room where he resides seems comfortable enough for him. I would recommend Whitney Place at Natick to friends and family.

Lovely Place!!

I had recently had a tour of this place for my mom and I was pleased with the experience I had. The staff where all very kind and did a great job presenting the the community to my mother and I. The only thing I did not think would work for my mom was the structure of the building. There was lots of windy hallways and lots of turns that I know she would get lost in. I think that would freak her out with her memory loss.

Lovely Staff

My mother has recently made the move into this community and so far we have no complaints of how things are going for her. The property is clean and they have a great activity program that I am hoping she gets involved in when she feels up to it. The only complaint that she has seems to have is the meals. They need some improvement in the quality and taste.

A nice place

The staff have been great at taking care of my loved one. They encourage them to participate in the many daily activities they offer. There are two different dining rooms in the community. The food and the service in the memory care dining room is not quite as good as in the other one. They do not offer a lockdown area outside for the memory care residents. The community is clean and I would recommend taking a look at this community.

Care needs some improvement but social aspects of community are great!

I'm not sure if they are short staffed,I hired additional care because I wasn't satisfied with the care my mother was getting. We are still working out some issues, I was upset to find that they did not follow through with things this weekend. Otherwise the facility is awesome and they have lots of activities. There is always something going on and it gets her engaged. She went from being alone in her apartment to now joining in on all the social aspects of the community. She says the people are all very nice as well.

Great Value for the cost

Whitney Place is good for people with mid dementia and can still function on their own. Staff is hands off and not overly attentive. Sometimes they argue with the residents. Duties are assigned and followed per their role. For example, there is an Activities person who does social groups, painting, singing, etc. The care taking staff do not participate in activities, rather they do daily care and serve the food. Care Coordinator is fantastic and keeps a pulse on what is going on.

Beware of outrageous assessment fee and do not let anyone pressure you into anything.

Watch out for [name removed]the salesperson and [name removed]who is no longer there. $[fee removed]for 6 days robbery!!!! Want to go to state make complaint. They have nerve to send out another invoice! Three other places did not charge an assessment fee! Everyone I told was shocked. It's terrible these places rob elderly people when they are at the end of their life. [name removed] is a typical salesman, pressuring a person into a huge expense and trying to make the right decision for a life changing situation. When they choose to put you in for a 30 day trial opt out! If you do a 30 day trial make sure you put in writing your 30 day notice of termination so they don't get another months rent out of you when not living there. Plus make sure billing is aware of your termination date.

The staff at Tapestry don't seem experienced in dementia care. They don't engage with visitors, and it is difficult to get answers to questions.
