The Arbors Assisted Living Center

My mother-in-law liked The Arbors at Stoneham because it's a warm and friendly place. They have congregate meals, games, discussion groups, and musical entertainment from outside. People will sometimes also come and give lectures about current topics.

The Arbors may be small in size, but they are huge in their skill, education, caring, love, and safety. The Arbors feels like home. Not a home away from home....but a real home. Great cooking, activities, entertainment, spiritual fulfillment, and constant tender loving care with a big dose of wisdom and medical knowledge. I am so impressed with the staff and especially the Administrator, Betty. The residents are her primary concern. Her expertise cannot be matched! Her beautiful facility is a reflection of her!

The staff at Arbors is very good. I'm very happy with it, and my mom is very happy. They sent me the medical forms that I needed to fill out prior to checking my mom in. It made it a lot easier because a lot of the paper work was done before I arrived with her. They did the check up on her very quickly. There were two different nurses that did that, and it went very smoothly. They were ready for our arrival. It is a smaller facility, which I prefer. It only has sixteen units in it. There are two different sizes of rooms there. My mom has the smaller room, and it is big enough for a chair, a bed, a TV stand, a lamp, and everything that she needs there. I ate a meal there, and it was very good. They do the baking and the cooking right there in the facility. They had a home-made cake, buns, and vegetables. It was a well-rounded meal. The dining room was very nice. They have five or six people at each table. They arrange them according to their ability to communicate with each other. I'm not fully aware of all activities, but they have bible devotionals, and they have a church pastor come in. There is a lady that comes in twice a month to play music for them. They also do Wheel of Fortune with them once a week. I like that they are very caring. Every time I talk to her, she will say that they are very good to her.

My grandfather was a resident of the facility for about a year before he passed away. The staff was very helpful, and always made sure that his needs were met. He had a very spacious room with a large window overlooking a pond with gorgeous scenery. In addition to the staff being helpful, they were also very friendly. The nurses would sit with my grandfather and just talk to him when his family couldn't be there. Overall, I would say this is an excellent assisted living facility.
