We're very happy with the community but it is expensive. I am familiar with other facilities in RI which are less expensive and provide more services as part of the rent. I am aware of the differences between what is allowed in RI and what is allowed in MA.... Read more

May 15, 2023Thank you for the five-star review, Christopher! It is wonderful to hear about the experience and interactions you've had at Great Woods.
Wonderful. Caring. Warm. Food was fair but all else was great. Excellent! Great care. They have a great kitchen area, that is big, clean, and updated. Absolutely would recommend. Love all the aides, nurses, management. I had previously had my loved one in a place in Florida that was cold, messy, unfriendly so this was wonderful to see how these peoples cared for the residents

April 18, 2023Thank you for the kind words! We are so happy to see your review.
We chose The Residence at Great Woods over other facilities we looked at because the apartments are new, the facility itself is spacious with lots of light, also they have a nice outside area for the reelection's neighborhood. What has stuck out about them the most is the staff, they are all very friendly and caring.

March 21, 2023Thank you for the kind words! We are so happy to hear you are enjoying Great Woods.
I felt they oversold some things that were going to be available - for instance, they said you can regulate the heat/AC in each resident's room. While each person does have their own thermostat, apparently the state regulates when they flip to heat vs. AC, which causes some extremes during the season changes. The ambassador she was promised did get in touch with her, but there wasn't much help in the beginning. I also found a cockroach in the bathroom, and they said they would spray for it, but that was upsetting. They've been doing great with her medication management though, and she's looking better. The staff has been friendly, and they seem to address any concerns we have. Overall they've done a pretty good job.

January 30, 2023We're so sorry that the heating and cooling system was not explained to you effectively. Systems like these do run on a heating/cooling schedule depending on the time of year. We are very happy that you are generally pleased with your sister's care, and are very grateful for your feedback!
The community is home and a comfy place. They have nice outside seating and a big patio. They have nice walking trails and the staff is very nice and helpful I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

Wingate Residences has been a pretty good for my mother. She is still adjusting to all of the changes. The staff has been great. They take very good care of her. The place is maintained well and everything is always clean.

The people here were really nice and answered all of our questions. I really did like the community and the residents seemed to be happy. I would have liked for my father in law to go here, but it would be to far. Wonderful community though.

We moved dad from another assisted living in Raynham to Wingate Norton and could not be happier! Dad now has a beautiful studio apartment which felt like home from day one! In addition to a beautiful building in a great location, the staff is so experienced, helpful, respectful and over the top FRIENDLY! They make sure dad is happy and well taken care of. Add to above the quality, selection and deliciousness of all meals, our family could not ask for anymore!! We have joined dad for lunch which is their big meal a couple times, and food tastes as good if not better than many restaurants we eat at! We toured several different assisted living residences for our dad and we have no doubts that Wingate Norton is #1 in every category......staff, community, food quality and selection, services offered and included, activities, etc., etc. If you are looking for a home for a loved one, we highly recommend Wingate Norton. You and your loved one will NOT be disappointed!

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
