A-Franchi Health

My loved one is enjoying their time here, and feels at home. This has worked out perfect for us. [name removed] was wonderful to work with, and she decided to leave. My loved one enjoys the food available. There are lots of activities available for the residents to choose from to participate in. This makes the family feel safe knowing our loved one is here.

The people are great, they are responsive to all of our needs. The new nursing director is phenomenal and they call us anytime there is ever an issue with our loved one. They really are on top of everything, we are really impressed with them and they are doing a great job during covid. All of the people we come into contact with are wonderful, friendly and accommodating.

My ( now 98 year old) mom has been there about 10 years. 1st in their Independant Living section,"The Glenn" in her studio apt there. Then around 7 years ago, needing more care, to a studio in "The Grove" section . Now in the "Woodlands" section for Alshiemers & others, needing more care. I can't say enough good things about them. Cost varies widely depending on which section & which accomedations within those sections. ie 2 bedroom, 1 bedroom or studio.

Overall the Grove in Braintree MA has been the best fit for our mom. We picked this community because of the price point and authenticity of staff.

The person we toured with was quite good. She gave us a nice walkthrough and showed us a couple of empty apartments and all the different common areas. Right away I thought it was quite a nice place. It was clean, and there were different activities going on.

Overall it has been a good experience. The staff seems quite good in general. The apartment is nice. My loved one had a couple of maintenance things here and there, but they were right on top of it and got things fixed quickly. And the social aspect is great. There are quite a lot of activities to be involved in.

We chose Grove Manor Estates because I thought the quality of the place was fantastic and the price was very good. The apartment sizes are pretty good compared to others that we looked into. I would recommend to others looking.

They have a very attentive staff. Getting in and out with the covid protocols is pretty easy overall. They have been really good with covid . The level of care that they give my loved one is really good.

I can't say anything too bad about Grove Manor estates except it was way too expensive. This facility is four stories and has a lot of permanent residents. River Bay Club offers similar services for $1500 less, however it is three times the size of Grove Manor. Grove Manor had problems involving our loved one in social activities or even meals in the dining room. The monthly rate here includes meals in the dining rooms, however, if you have a loved one who orders it delivered to their room there are additional charges. We would have preferred more of an effort on the staff's part to not allow for room service when our loved one needed social interaction. Beyond that I prefer the size of this community, it is just too expensive.

[Removed] was lovely and the building seemed nice -the secure floor seems to be an afterthought as there are no outdoor options for them (porches, etc) The memory unit is quite small and the people have quite advanced memory loss. I like that it is a family-owned business, but [Removed] made it quite clear that many people cannot stay here until end of life. I want my mom who is 93 in a place where she can live until the end of life -This is not for her.
