Memory Care
My dad was determined and prepared to remain in his Wayland home. He moved to Traditions of Wayland in December for a two month “respite”, not long after a bad fall and several broken bones required hospitalizations and weeks in rehab. When the Traditions Resident Care Director, came to his discharge planning meeting I knew he would be in good hands. [name removed]’s intelligence, compassion, expertise and kind sense of humor inspired trust and optimism. Her resident care staff are especially cheerful, responsive, respectful, skilled and kind. I look forward to seeing them whenever I visit. About halfway through his “temporary” stay at Traditions, my dad decided to become a longer term resident and now lives in a nice apartment furnished with his favorite belongings. He has developed friendships and relationships that are meaningful and bring a new kind of purpose to his days. I am continually impressed by the quality of care and assistance he receives. The staff is responsive, communicative, cheerful, thoughtful and dedicated. From welcoming and informative greeters at the front desk, to the kitchen staff and activity planners, administrators and maintenance staff, everyone is dedicated to providing a pleasant and meaningful experience for the residents. I am grateful and proud to feel part of the Traditions of Wayland community.
The community is always clean. Every time we visit, my mother's apartment is always clean and the bathroom is always clean. Very high marks for cleanliness. Some of the staff is a bit friendlier than others, but they are all great with the residents. The care could be improved for the higher needs residents. The staff is really good about engaging the residents in activities. If a resident does not want to participate, they are good about encouraging them to do so in the future. Corcoran House is definitely worth the price. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we think Corcoran House is doing everything they can do protect the residents. During the community lock down, the staff has really stepped up to assist further than usual. It has been very difficult for my mother to be in quarantine.
Brookdale is terrific! They have wonderful policies and procedures in place, even before the Covid-19 pandemic, the community was spotless. My parents love the staff. Everyone I run into as well is terrific; from the director to the staff working the dinning room. There is a range of times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which not all communities offer. They always have a pleasant attitude. The care is excellent. In terms of the other services, like the food, they do a great job accommodating for my parents' needs. They have an activities director that provides a wide variety of activities available to them if they want. They also have smaller services available just in case, which is great. They have even done personal shopping for my parents to make sure they stayed safe during the pandemic. I like that they have smaller services available for those who only need a small amount of help, but don't yet need assisted living. We also really like that they have shuttle services available for the residents and they will take them off-community for activities. The rooms themselves are very big compared to other communities in the area equipped with full-sized kitchens. Brookdale Cushing Park is also in a great location, they are right by the park and that makes it easy for my parents to get out and enjoy nature. They are a hidden gem!
