Great place

My father is very happy living at Great Woods. The food is excellent and he loves sitting out in the sun and reading his book. He hasn’t participated much in activities as he is still getting familiar with everything. Overall we have been very happy with Great Woods

Great staff and outstanding facility

The staff at the Residence at Great Woods is caring, professional, exceptional and committed to caring for the residents. The facility is also top notch, from the activities offered to the meal selection offered everyday. We were blessed to have our mother cared for by this outstanding staff. We highly recommend the Residence at Great Woods.

A few things to consider

If the facility's doctor is chosen for resident's primary care, be prepared to bring urinalysis (done at the facility) to a lab to be processed. I did not realize they have no courrier to do that. We have had a couple issues of our parents missing hair or podiatry appointments there in the facility because no one called to remind them or went to their room to get them. (Both parents have significant memory loss). Cable TV service leaves A LOT to be improved on. We bought 2 new TVs, when told that perhaps the issue was their original TVs. It apparently is the facility's very outdated in house cable/internet system that should be updated for the price residents pay to have it. Most seniors do not understand streaming the programs they want to watch, and regular cable programs have very grainy reception. We've given up trying to rectify this. On the positive side...very friendly staff, very clean facility, food has been great, dining room open all day is a nice option for those who don't rise early for set breakfast hours.

Review for The Residence at Great Woods

Very clean. Lots of great activities. Great about checking in if they don't see my Mom for a bit, both with her and with me. Suggested a pharmacy program that has been a lifesaver. Great that she can see a nurse, her PCP, the dentist, podiatrist, and hairdresser without leaving the building.

Wonderful staff, mom is well cared for

The staff is great. My mom says they are very helpful to her. They always check in on her. The admin takes the time to introduce you to the head staff when you initially are accepted as a resident and makes you feel comfortable with the whole process. I would highly recommend this assisted living place to anyone. I feel very confident my mom is taken well care of.

Overall, we are very happy and relieved to have her living at the Residence.

We needed more orientation as to how things actually worked, especially after my mother in law got sick with the flu and was showing some confusion. Care was not provided by the residence staff, but had to be coordinated with a local VNA. We had no idea. Then we needed help getting her to take her meds, but didnt realize we had to set all up. One med had to be crushed which the staff weren't allowed to do and my mother in law didnt have the hand strength, so we had to take care of that as well. My mother in law has time blindness and has had this all her life. She's always had her own system of reminders, but this is no looking working. We need someone to alert her and make sure she gets to meals and at least one activity per day, but this keeps falling through the cracks. Missing meals is not ok. Having to call the front desk to remind them to go get her is another thing we shouldn't have to worry about. But they have been very responsive when she presses her emergency button, the staff are always pleasant, the facility is spotless, rave reviews on the food, and they have been responsive to our concerns, but a more thorough orientation for the family would have saved a lot of angst. And the place for mom staff were amazingly helpful in finding a suitable place that met all of our criteria - nearby, could be short term, allowed mother in law to take her dog with her, affordable and with an open bed. I would highly recommend a place for mom.

A Place for Mom is such a valuable resource

When faced with finding an assisted living community for my mom with very short notice, A Place for Mom considered our needs and provided referrals to appropriate communities. Knowing that they had previously vetted these communities, gave us significant peace of mind. As soon as I toured The Residence at Great Woods and met the staff, I knew that my mother would be safe and happy here! It was a bit of a scramble for us since she needed to move in directly from rehab and her rehab insurance benefits expired before we expected. The sales manager and the RN, could not have been more helpful! They made everything happen exactly when we needed it too and streamlined the whole process for us! My mom has made many friends & is enjoying the activities & outings. Thank you to both A Place for Mom & The Residence at Great Woods!

Review for The Residence at Great Woods

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.

Review for The Residence at Great Woods

I just wanted to point out that Residence at Great Woods claims they can provide care for people with dementia but that is not true. My cousin lived there for a very short time before they sent her to crisis and would not allow her back unless we paid privately for someone to sit with her for 24 hours a day. They knew her history of dementia and mental health and still claimed they could care for her but instead put our family in a very difficult situation. It was not a good experience.

We were so blessed to have found Great Woods, it's a wonderful facility!

Everything was absolutely perfect at Great Woods but unfortunately my mom had to step up to long term care. They were so wonderful. The facility was beautiful and clean and all the staff were great, helpful and friendly. And the food was excellent...chef prepared meals that were just wonderful! I was disappointed when my mom had to leave, l truly felt that we were very blessed!

Review for The Residence at Great Woods

Major complaint is the dining room. Its what my loved ones complain about almost daily. Other than that the cost of living there is outrageous. I would recommend it for peace of mind.

Our family found the best Assisted Living !

We were highly recommended to visit The Residence at. Great Woods for my mother. As soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted and toured the community. We met the Executive Director and the Chef. He personally met us and asked about what kind of food my mother enjoys eating. We saw spacious beautiful apartments. We bumped into many residents and the community had lots of activities to choose from. My mother moved in about a month ago and she has met new friends and absolutely loves it!!

Great Woods is Great!

From the first moment I walked into the community until I left with a warm box of cookies my visit couldn't have been better. Everyone was friendly and happy. I met a number of the staff members and folks that live there. Everyone smiled, said hello and welcomed me like family. All of my questions were answered and the place looked great and smelled good. When it is time for my mom to move this will be the place. Thank you!

We continue to be impressed

When it came time to put our mother in a place where she would get the care that we could no longer provide, we spent a lot of time searching for the perfect place. We realized no place is perfect but based on what we had heard about The Residence we felt confident our mom would do well there. It's been about 18 months and we continue to pleased with everything about this place. The staff are friendly and more importantly, they are attentive. Unlike some places where you often times see residents hanging out in wheel chairs in various places just sitting them by themselves, The Residence always has the residents people engaged in activities. They offer good programs that keep everyone engaged which is great. Also, we learned recently that there had been a large renovation done to the facilities not too before we moved our mom in. It is such a nice place.

Impactful

Having family members staying at this facility opened my eyes to how much care and assistance the staff treats family as their own. The staff has always been easy to talk to and approachable willing to talk about issues or concerns and give their best foot forward. Having a family member there has me assured that there is no better place for loved ones to be cared for and given their best time.
