Maplewood Senior Living

Maplewood at Brewster is an absolutely wonderful place for Memory Care or in addition assisted and Independent living. In particular I was totally amazed at how incredible the staff, services, facility and food were during my 16 months there with my wife [name removed] who had Early Onset Alzheimer's. I took all my meals with her plus sometimes stayed for activities. After supper [name removed] watched a Netflix movie with her friends while I went home to feed the dog returning to watch TV in her room with her. I have firsthand knowledge of quite a number of Memory Care facilities because both my mother in law and sister in law passed away from Alzheimer's. I have also been a member of the Alzheimer's association for 25 years through which I have become very familiar with what is required in Memory Care. Maplewood at Brewster far exceeds any of those requirements. The staff is just extraordinary in their kindness, care and compassion for all of the residents in Memory Care. They all go out of their way to insure that the needs of everyone are well taken care of with great understanding of what it takes to deal with the various issues of dementia in all of its challenging forms. There are optional activities throughout the day of all sorts to keep residents engaged and involved where the staff is well trained in being able to get through the fog of dementia. Music is a good part of it all which has been shown to be one of the best ways to get through to people with dementia. Every week there may be several musical groups to entertain as well as always having sing-alongs etc. Each day features discussion of lighthearted items like what happened on this day in history etc. There are also games and art projects to enjoy for residents who want. Beyond all of this there are also once or twice weekly out and about trips on a handicap equipped Maplewood van with a guide and assistants taking those who wish on short tours and trips to various nearby places around Cape Cod. This can be anything from a trip to the beach and other scenic places to getting ice cream etc. Memory Care at Maplewood at Brewster is an extraordinary facility in itself featuring two beautiful lounges with big screen TV, a wonderful art room, library and magnificent outdoor courtyard. The courtyard which is completely secure features an outdoor fireplace, pergola, covered picnic tables and benches. It is all beautifully landscaped with a short paved path where residents can walk around the garden in season. As to the food it is all absolutely delicious featuring restaurant quality items with choices at each meal. The variety is amazing ranging across the board from wonderful local seafood and meats to local garden vegetables. There is an endless variety of fresh made great tasting deserts. All of this is served by the very attentive staff in the most amazing dining room with open kitchen where you can see the chef at work. In case it is not obvious I consider Maplewood at Brewster to be the finest facility of its kind anywhere for Memory Care or assisted and independent living for that matter. Any person with dementia issues given their situation is sure to get the most out of life when living there due to the extraordinary staff, wonderful activities, amazing facility and outstanding food.

My mother had been living alone in her own home and was not eating or taking her medications properly. My mother is thriving living at Maplewood at Weston! I toured several other communities and found that Maplewood had the right balance of amenities and services. She has met new friends and is never in her apartment. She loves the exercise programs with [name removed] and is using the pool 3 days a week. Thank you Maplewood for making my mother's transition to senior living so positive!

I have lived here for a while though I don't remember how long. I've got good friends here and a lot of good people who take care of me. I have a lot of fun and wouldn't live anywhere else.

Brand new building that has amazing location with water features that is top notch among other communities. i was very impressed with the building, i would highly recommend this community.

I searched several communities in Connecticut for my Mom including Maplewood in Newtown, Churhill and Ridgefield Crossings. We chose Maplewood in Newtown because the residents and staff we met were friendly, the turn over among staff was low, the community has been in Newtown for over ten years and the nursing team was experienced and had a LPN on site 24 hours per day. Since my Mom has been living at Maplewood, she has been eating more healthy, gaining more social interaction, intellectual stimulation and meeting new friends. Initially, my mom was not happy moving. But she is thriving and I have peace of mind that she is well cared for and living in a beautiful place where she is safe.

My Dad always told me it was his “job” to worry. As he ages, the worry has shifted. I know I am NOT alone. Dad is a retired Veteran who suffers from PTSD and depression, so it is hard for him to socialize. He was sitting too much, in pain from inactivity and was becoming forgetful. Shortly after moving to Mayflower, his color is back, he is certainly walking better with an improved posture, balance, AND his memory improved as he began moving around a socializing. His doctor even noticed! Every member of the staff knows him, knows what is going on in his life, and converses with him. He has meals with friends, and he is never alone. I work in the healthcare field and stay in hotels about 120 nights per year for business, so I admittedly have extremely high standards in terms of care, environment and meals. Maplewood at Mayflower impresses me. I sleep well at night knowing he is living in an independent, supportive and gorgeous environment, right down to the dinnerware and incredible meals prepared by a chef, (who I should probably meet and provide a thank you personally!”

I cannot say enough about Maplewood at Brewster. The staff is warm and welcoming. The food is incredible and the difference in my Dad within just a month was incredible. My Dad is a retired Veteran, who is not very talkative but sweet. Living alone was not an option for him and he had become depressed. He was sitting too much due to lack or drive for interaction and activity.... and in chronic pain due to this. With no one to talk to he became more of a recluse and at first we thought he was becoming a tiny bit forgetful (I was terrified that this may be due to onset of Alzheimers). He did not require assistance (a level of care), but if he missed a meal they would check on him. The staff helped him socialize in the beginning so my fear of him sitting alone was quelled. I sleep better at night! I love him so and no longer worry. Dad moved into Maplewood. Within a month (yes, just a month), he was less pale, having meals with friends, walking better with an improved posture AND his memory improved as he began moving around a socializing. His mind, body and spirit were being exercised ;0) I work in the healthcare field so my standards are extremely high. Maplewood does not disappoint in terms of elder activities and embodies what assisted living should be. We consider everyone at Maplewood our extended family!

This is the most ideal place for my mother. Surrounded by structure, friends, and many activities to enjoy life to her fullest. Staff is always friendly and helpful. A very clean and refreshing atmosphere. Always quaint areas to sit down at to enjoy pitchers of great water, coffee, tea, fruit, freshly baked cookies, muffins. Maplewood is something like being on a mini cruise, but with your own spacious, cheerful apartment. Anyone who has visited remarks about how great the place is. I love the courtyards where you can sit and enjoy nature. Dining room so exquisite. Who wouldn't want to live here? I had one visitor already who did not want to leave. She loved sitting in the courtyard talking to me and enjoyed looking at the birds eating from the feeder. The landscaping at Maplewood is awesome. My mother is having a great time. My mother has no complaints and is enjoying life at 99 years old. ????

The facility has a great ambiance and the front desk is always so welcoming as I come in. I come into the facility daily as a Chaplin to see my residents. Great architecture, layout and a truly talented team are just a few things that identify Maplewood. Keep up the great work and all the great things you do.

I work for an agency that provides care and service to the residents of this fine establishment. Without a doubt, one of the best assisted livings in Northen Ohio.

I recently toured Maplewood at Cuyahoga Falls. I was very impressed by the cleanliness, the friendliness of the employees and the activities for the residents. Every aspect of the building has been so well thought out. Details you just wouldn't think of, but make so much sense. I would encourage anyone looking for assisted living to look at Maplewood.

Maplewood at Chardon is a very unique assisted living facility. I love the neighborhood feel and there is an adorable front porch in front of each apartment that the residents decorate and sit out on. The staff is very friendly and many of the employees I've met have been there for a long time. There are always a lot of activities going on and I like that there are separate units so that my mom can stay if her dementia gets worse in the future. I would highly recommend Maplewood!

Such a gorgeous facility! I love that the independent suites have their own front porch and it looks like you are walking down the street. The facility always is clean, and smells wonderful.. and the staff is just as great. The residents always have a lot of activities to chose from, and they are always well kept. If anyone would ask me for a recommendation for this area, no question asked it would be Maplewood at Chardon.

I recently attended a Support Group at Maplewood and the information provided was refreshing yet helpful for me to better manage my husband at home. Its not a matter of If I have to Move my husband, its when and I am comfortable in my decision to move to Maplewood. Great place from what I have observed and witnessed.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Always willing to go above and beyond to meet resident’s needs.

A very clean and welcoming environment for my loved one to be at! I knew I chose the right place the minute I stepped into the building. I recommend Maplewood at Twinsburg to anybody needing an excellent place for their loved one!

My Mother has been a resident at Maplewood for 2 months now. She has dementia and her behaviors make it difficult to get her up and going in the morning and to bed at night. She was previously at another assisted living facility and as the disease progressed the staff there was unable care for her. I was forced to bring in outside help for 4 hours/day (very $$$) to get her up and going. I also received regular calls from staff, director, and Mom at all hours of the day whenever an incident occurred. Things were pretty miserable for my Mom and our family. Finally things came to a head and the facility issued a 30 relocation notice. It was the best thing that ever happened to us. I began a search for a new home and found Maplewood. Maplewood specializes in dementia care. They took an entirely different approach to caring for her and the results have been remarkable. They allow Mom to handle as much of her daily routine as her age and disease allow and step in to help as needed. The Staff is caring and skilled. The calendar is filled with carefully planned activities to meet the resident’s physical, mental, and spiritual needs. The facility and grounds beautiful and well maintained and most importantly Mom is happy again. I can’t say enough good about Maplewood!!

The Team at Maplewood Darien have been amazing since we transitioned my Mother there 3 months ago. You really get a feeling of community from the very beginning and the staff are 100% involved with my Mother's day to day routine. Everyone on staff knows my Mom and they all know me as well! [name removed] and [name removed] did an amazing job of helping us get my Mother moved and settled in quickly and they were there every day to reassure her about the move. I no longer worry about her every minute of the day as I know the staff makes sure she is getting to all of her meals and activities and not sitting alone in her apartment all day.

Maplewood at Stony Hill is a place that I never thought we would have to use for our family member but we did and I can't say enough about the caring and compassionate staff that is there. The Director of Nursing, The Assistant Director of Nursing and their activity director are amazing. Customer and consumer focused; there to help and listen. Living out of state; I rely on calls from my siblings regarding the care my mom receives. The staff has gone above and beyond reaching out to me with updates and just calling to see how I am doing. Being in health care myself; makes it even more important to have my mom in a positive environment where she can enjoy her remaining days. All the staff there are very kind and my mom enjoys talking with them. Thank you for taking care of my mom.

My mother has a been resident at Maplewood Cuyahoga Falls since March of 2016. This is just the best facility for dementia and Alzheimers patients. They have become family to me and my Mother. They are very caring about the residents. Everyone, from the staff at the front desk to the nurses aids, are very friendly, and can tell you everything that is going on with your family member. This is not just a facility. This is their home. Anything that you need addressed is immediately taken care of, no matter how minor it is. The staff is well trained in taking care of dementia patients. Maplewood also puts on educational training sessions to assist family members in understanding what your loved one is going through. I have learned a lot from these classes, and highly recommend attending. The food is wonderful and very tasty. My mom's health improved because she is getting three meals a day and exercise. They have specialists come in to evaluate your loved one, if necessary. My mom has been a fall risk, and physical therapy has helped with this. Maplewood Cuyahoga Falls is a great place for your family member to be. They will get outstanding care. I highly recommend bringing your loved one to Maplewood Cuyahoga Falls.
