July 8, 2022Hi James, thank you so much for taking the time to leave thoughts about your experience. We really appreciate your partnership. You bring so much joy to our residents and staff. Thank you!
I've got the chance to visit this great property and talk to the executive team there. They helped to give me a thorough tour and I have the chance to see how happy and peaceful when the residents are living there. When I talk to the team, I could feel that they care the residents genuinely.

October 13, 2022Hi Christine, thanks for your praise and kind comments. Your recommendation means so much to us and we’re so happy to have earned it. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know about your positive experience.
[name removed] has been such an incredible gift to our family and the care of our dad, [name removed]. She’s not only highly skilled in what she does, but patient, personable, upbeat and truly caring about the overall wellness of our dad and the other Maplewood residents. She continually goes above and beyond and has been such a mainstay and steady presence in our Dad’s day to day living, through the death of our mom, the pandemic, and the ups and downs of what it means to be 91. We consider [name removed] an integral part of Dad’s overall health AND to the Maplewood experience. She is a treasure.

October 13, 2022Hello Diane, Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We will share your feedback. Thanks!
My 98 year old mother is in a wheelchair & has been in Maplewood for 3 years. Due to her wonderful & placid nature, she is an easy resident to care for. But, any issues are immediately addressed by staff, from aides, to Wellness, to maintenance, to front desk, to the Executive Director. a very caring and most supportive Manager. His door is open to any issue we have- as my brother and I don’t live in the Boston area, we entrust our mother’s life, well-being, medical help etc to the Executive Director and his able staff. From making sure that my mom is always accounted for, to raising her sink to make it more accessible for her daily routine, to activating her cellphone, to building a ramp so she can easily go on and off her porch, to giving her extra help in her kitchen area- these are some of the things that Maplewood staff do for my mom on an everyday basis. Maplewood works for my mom due to superb management, oversight and professionalism.

May 23, 2022Hi Judi, thank you so much! It is our honor to care for your mother and we have enjoyed getting to know both of you. Your endorsement is validation that we are providing the care we strive to have for all of our residents and their families.
Maplewood feels like a luxury hotel and it had the price point to match it. It seemed like a great place, we were just looking for something that felt more homey.

March 8, 2022Hi, thanks for letting us know about your positive experience while visiting! Please let us know if you have any questions about our community.
This week my wife and I visited our long time next door neighbor, who recently moved into the Maplewood facility. Frankly, we miss her and wanted to see with our own eyes, the place she speaks so highly of! Well, we’ll still miss seeing her everyday, but we will no longer be concerned about her new home (assisted living) and the professionals that help her. Wow! Everything really exceeded what we had expected. While we were only there for a couple of hours we had a great feeling when we left, knowing that she really was in good hands!! Thanks Maplewood!

December 17, 2021Hi Juan, thank you so much for your kind words! We truly appreciate our partnership and your endorsement--it means the world to us. Have a great day!
I’ve been a visiting nurse at Maplewood at Weston for 3 years now and I absolutely love it. Maplewood always ensures that it’s staff, residents and visitors remain safe and healthy during the pandemic, with vigorous COVID protocols upon arriving the premises. They’re always readily available when and if needed — it’s all in all a loving, warm and welcoming environment whether it be you are re-homing a loved one or simply looking for work. Maplewood at Weston is THE BEST! You wouldn’t want to NOT become a part of this beautiful community.

November 19, 2021Mark, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to leave us a review! We are so happy to hear you had a good experience while visiting.
One word that would explain Maplewood is Excellence! Maplewood is a luxurious, clean, and well-maintained Assisted Living Facility, their staff is very warm & friendly, starting from the receptionist, [name removed], [name removed] the chef, [name removed] the E. Director to the wellness staff, [name removed], [name removed], [name removed], and all RCA’s. I worked in the kitchen as a waitress in my high school days and came back as a nurse/owner of Mindful Healthcare Agency and I have noticed the care & dedication in the services provided. They are responsive to any resident needs we bring to their attention & they just have their hearts in the right place and for that I highly recommend Maplewood!

November 2, 2021Lou, we are thrilled to have your mom as part of the Maplewood family! Thank you for sharing your kind words with us. Let us know if there is anything additional we can do for you or your mom.
I have been working with formers and current residents at Mapplewood for awhile, and I enjoyed every second I spent there! I was so impressed with the facility, the events, and the activities available to residents. It is clear that the staff members care so deeply about their residents, and they do everything possible to make sure the residents are well in every aspect. Highly recommend!!!

November 1, 2021Hi Alexandre, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to leave a review. Your endorsement means so much to us! I will relay your kind words to our team.
I would like to tell you about the best move I ever made and it was to Maplewood at Weston. First, I loved the location, my 2 bedroom apartment is bright and spacious with weekly housekeeping and laundry. I enjoy my 3 meals a day with fresh menu choices and eating in the white tablecloth dining room, or I can get meal delivery to my apt. My favorite part of the day revolves around exercising and the pool, there are many group classes and individual training. There are many activities including music, lectures, painting, a comfortable movie theater. Another perk for me is the underground garage. The Maplewood staff- administration, CNAs, and maintenance I find to be friendly, efficient, and very responsive. I have to add that I really appreciate the care taken around the COVID pandemic. To sum it up, I wholeheartedly recommend Maplewood to anyone looking for a safe, comfortable, friendly, busy, vibrant, caring community in which to live.

October 13, 2021Hi Marty, thank you so much for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are so happy to hear that you love living here! It is the highest form of compliment. We are lucky to have you as part of our Maplewood family. Let us know if there is anything additional we can do for you.
I am a private aide of a client there. We sought out this facility because it is very safe from covid. This facility not only checks temperatures of anyone going in but also of individuals going out. The staff are all very caring and the new CEO listens to the residents to help make improvements. The facility is very beautiful and they offer a lot of activities. They have a lot of concerts in a beautiful outdoor setting. The food is healthy and great quality. This is the best facility around and it is a pleasure to be able to help my client here.

I would recommend Maplewood. As far as I can tell, it's one of the best assisited living places around, and that's why we selected it. I like the atmosphere and the location. It's close for us to come visit. I think the staff is doing a good job, and they're very friendly. They seem to bring people out and bring them together for activities quite a lot, although my loved one hasn't been able to participate much due to a disability. The food seems to be pretty good, and they offer a variety to choose from.

October 13, 2022Hello Peter, thank you; we appreciate your feedback. We know that moving a loved one into a senior living community can be a difficult decision. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know about your positive experience.
Do not be fooled by this facility. It is beautiful. Really one of the nicest we have seen. However they have some serious problems with staff, safety and quality. We moved my dad in with the highest hopes for compassionate care and socialization. However, it was a disaster. NONE of the services we contacted for were provided. Its not that they did a poor job, they were not provided. No wellness checks, no daily housekeeping, no laundry, no bed making, no mobility assistance - nothing. Every time we asked the front desk we were referred to a different someone who was "off that day". The front desk staff always seemed to be like it was the first 5 minutes on the job, like candid camera - they didn't know anything about their own facility or who to call. No one their could even tell us where to park - I have never seen anything like it. I expected that on move in there would be some sort of on boarding, where the head of every department came by and introduced themselves and explained their role - this would be helpful but they do not have that. It felt like a beautiful, unmanned facility. The only caregivers I ever saw, and I was there daily were private hired by residents, as we did as well. If it were not for our caregiver who was there to help with the transition, I do not know what would have or could have happened to him with such neglect. Further their pharmacy messed up his medication, putting him in the hospital. After 8 days we pulled him out because it was unsafe. Do your self a favor and read employee reviews from indeed or glassdoor. I should have. I am not one to leave reviews and always give people the benefit of the doubt, but this is a unique type of business that has a higher standard - due to the importance of their product - the care and safety of loved ones.

April 13, 2021First, thank you for taking the time to let us know your disappointment. We take all feedback very seriously and look to immediately improve service. My understanding is you are in direct contact with our SVP of operations, Amy Silva-Magalhaes. Amy identified multiple training and communication opportunities and started working with the teams immediately. We are deeply sorry that you are your family had this experience and we are fully commitment to use this to ensure future families do not have the same experience. Thank you again for your transparency and willingness to point out details on service.
My father has resided at Maplewood for 1-1/2 years. He has a very comfortable handicapped equipped apartment with a full kitchen. Maplewood offers a variety of activities for it's residents. The activities director and assistant work very hard to provide a range of engaging activities for the residents, including, but not limited to, concerts, discussion groups, and movies. Additionally, my father particularly enjoys working daily with the physical therapist in both balance classes and one on one strength training. There are a number of comfortable gathering spaces located through-out the residence. During the warmer months the residents are able to enjoy a very spacious and nicely furnished terrace. Throughout the ongoing Covid pandemic the staff, as well as the corporate offices, have worked tirelessly to keep everyone healthy and engaged. In particular I can't thank them enough for cheerfully helping my father to become comfortable with zoom. Their help enabled us to regularly "see" one another during an especially difficult time. The staff at Maplewood are all caring and kind, working daily to create and maintain a positive and engaging environment for the residents.
