My mother-in law was in The Bridges for a couple of weeks before she passed away. It's brand new. They were wonderful, the staff was phenomenal, always willing to help us out with anything, and the place was spotless. They're awesome, the food was delicious, and there's a beautiful dining place. They don't provide a bed, so we had to purchase a set.

About Bridges by EPOCH at Westwood in Westwood, Massachusetts
EPOCH Assisted Living's acclaimed BRIDGES at Westwood is a unique community designed around a specially developed program that combines the latest technologies in memory impairment research with a comfortable, homelike environment, redefining the way memory care assisted living is provided today. Our goal is to make a real difference in the lives of those touched by Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Families are also an important member of our community and always welcome to join us for activities or events.
Memory impairment can alter a person's vision, hearing, and sense of smell and touch. We have designed our community to encourage feelings of familiarity and security for all residents. Design features include color-coded objects, the use of non-glare flooring, special lighting and uniquely designed program spaces to help residents feel at home. The home-like atmosphere is further enhanced through specially selected color schemes to evoke comfort and pleasure. Outside courtyards are also designed to allow residents a safe means to enjoy outside activities.
We are proud to be one of the few memory care assisted living communities that offer care for late stages of Alzheimer's disease, allowing our residents to be able to age in place as their disease progresses. Our various programs address the different stages of memory decline, allowing us to provide customized care for each of our resident's individual needs.
Our BRIDGES program provides a nurturing environment in which residents experience life's pleasures. Our specially trained and compassionate staff tailors activities to individual interests and abilities, increasing self-worth, confidence, and joy. Our staff's compassion and commitment is vital to our BRIDGES program success. Continuing education is an ongoing component of staff training.
We would like to show you how we�ve redefined the way memory care assisted living is provided today. Please call us for a tour and consultation.

The Bridges is a beautiful place. It’s nice, and I like it. The services were nice. They had activities and do a couple of things. The nurses were great, but the aides could help out a little more. Overall, it was good.
Provider Response
Thank you for your kind words. We work hard to provide services and activities that benefit our residents and contribute to their wellbeing. We also take pride in our team, of which our aides are critical members. Because of their role supporting our wellness team — and so much more that they do — their contributions are not always center stage, but they do provide an invaluable service and we’re very appreciative of them. Thank you again, and we’re grateful that your loved one has chosen to call our community home.
