The Cambridge Homes

My mother has been a resident at The Cambridge Homes for four years, and I cannot say enough about the extraordinary level of care, dignity, and compassion she has received there. My mother is 84 years old, has physical limitations and cognitive decline, and also holds a doctorate in Education from Harvard. Finding a community where she would feel intellectually comfortable, emotionally supported, and genuinely respected was incredibly important to our family. The Cambridge Homes has exceeded every expectation. What makes this community truly special is the caliber of both the residents and the staff. Surrounded by fellow Harvard, MIT, and highly accomplished academic residents, my mother continues to feel stimulated, engaged, and “at home” among peers who share similar life experiences and intellectual curiosity. The care is deeply personalized. The staff knows her preferences, her routines, her challenges, and her strengths. They treat her with patience, warmth, and respect every single day. Their attention to detail and genuine kindness have brought enormous peace of mind to our family. She is also a very picky eater, and the food has been consistently excellent. Meals are thoughtfully prepared, high quality, and one of the highlights of her daily life. The activities, programming, and overall environment are truly world class. There is an atmosphere of dignity, intelligence, warmth, and community that is very rare to find in senior living. I am profoundly grateful to everyone at The Cambridge Homes for the exceptional care they provide and for helping my mother maintain quality of life, connection, and joy during this stage of her life.

The Cambridge Homes is like no other senior assisted living place. Cosy, deeply charming, intimate, and warm, it feels like a large gorgeous home and not at all like an institution. Every member of staff is friendly, attentive, and caring, from the dining room to those assisting with medicine, to the management. The entertainment, exercise options, and education is fantastic and so are the trips. Lots to stimulate and amuse. The food is great. If you are looking for your self or your loved one, this is a true home where you can be assured that the experience will be warm and caring and very fun. I’m delighted my mother is a resident.

Nearly four years ago my father moved into TCH, and he couldn't be happier, better taken care of, or more supported. The staff at TCH is remarkable - truly caring, warm, and smart. There isn't an ounce of the "condescending to the old people" garbage we found in many other places - they don't infantilize their residents, they appreciate them for their histories, creativity, humor, and place in the community. The group dining, education, and community offerings are really great, but not forced upon anyone. The residents themselves look out for each other as well, forming a warm and vibrant place on all fronts. I really can't recommend TCH enough.
