Lexington, MA, is a suburb of Boston and the home of Artis Senior Center. History buffs here have plenty of choices for visiting important sites of the American Revolution. Seniors in Lexington live in a suburban setting, but have easy access to the big-city amenities and health care facilities that Boston offers. Artis Senior Living is an assisted living facility that's organized into four cottage-style neighborhoods, which feature private resident accommodations and share a central Town Center. These smaller communities allow caretakers and nurses to provide seniors with more personalized care. Residents with memory concerns are carefully monitored by staff trained in Alzheimer's disease and dementia care. Services provided include reminders and redirection, personal grooming assistance and escorts to meals and activities. An on-call board-certified physician serves as the facility's primary care doctor. The community is situated on six acres, with a private courtyard for each of the neighborhoods. Meals are served three times daily in each cottage's dining room. Amenities in the Town Center are available to all residents, and include a health and wellness center, creative arts studio, beauty salon and barbershop. Here, seniors can attend community meetings, special events and celebrations, exercise classes and a variety of other planned activities.To learn more about this provider’s license and review other available state reports, please visit: Massachusetts Division of Health Care Facility Licensure and Certification
