High level of care and concern that is top end / upper echelon in assisted living care programs

It is pricey, but if you have the money it's well worth it. The room was excellent, very beautiful. They had staff there all the time, and my loved one was constantly seeing the staff even when she couldn't see the residents. The staff were always letting me know if she needed anything - cat food, Boost, etc. The smell from the kitchen was absolutely wonderful. It made me want to eat there. The location is great, easy to get to. There are nice views from the rooms, and the grounds outside seemed very nice. During Covid, they did everything they could to keep people safe, for instance meals served in the rooms. They went above and beyond to make my loved one comfortable. They're offering a lot of activities, including presentations on different countries, exercise groups, and even one-on one exercise instruction during Covid. There's a memory care group for activities at an additional fee. Overall I was very satisfied, and I would recommend as long as it's within your financial range.... Read more

Location is still very good (more like a 15 minute drive) but amenities are really strong - the coffee shop in particular is a really nice feature and something that my mother would love. The dining options, activities, and overall facilities condition are all great. Also, I think that, because of the size of the studios, these might actually be an option for my mom and also might be easier to navigate without the additional walls/doors. I did read a few comments that the care was inconsistent and that a few people had felt the need to bring in outside help in addition to the onsite care. Do you have any thoughts on how I should interpret that feedback?

Coming Home to NSP

Thank you so much to [names removed] and the entire staff at North Shore Place. You have made my parents transition from the east coast as seamless and stress free as possible. Despite all the setbacks with Covid and my Dad's declining health you worked with our family to get my parents settled into their new environs. North Shore Place is a beautiful community with loving staff and great accommodations. The help of the team at CMFTO , led by [name removed], with the physical move of my parents belongings and then setting up their apartment was "beyond words". We would highly recommend North Shore Place to anyone looking for an Assisted living community for their loved one.

EXCELLENT PLACE: MY DAD IS SO HAPPY THERE

Our father has been living at North Shore Place for a little over a year now, and he and our family couldn’t be happier. At age 92, he’s enjoying delicious meals, various activities including movies, singalongs, and chair volleyball, along with the additional healthcare needs he has at his age. He’s even made some new friends. Their staff, led by Executive Director [name removed], Director of Hospitality [name removed] and Health & Wellness Director [name removed] have been so attentive with our family’s various questions and proactive in identifying what our dad needs to stay healthy and fit and get the most out of his time there. This past year has posed tremendous challenges for the entire staff. Through it all, they’ve taken great precautions to keep the residents safe and well while maintaining a warm sense of community for everyone who lives there. We feel so fortunate knowing our father is in the perfect place with such devoted support to enjoy his golden years.

With Time It Feels Like Home

It’s a scary proposition moving to a new home, especially when that move is solo. My parents were married almost 55 years when my mother passed away. They did everything together. My father is a retired cardiologist and has his interests, but socially, he deferred to my mother to lead the way. He loved her and was content to be with her regardless of the activity. After my mother passed away, my father decided it was time to move to North Shore Place (NSP). Was Dad going to enjoy this? Was he going to make friends on his own? Suffice it to say, the first few months were an adjustment. But the staff persevered and helped him meet new people. Now, nearly five years later, my father doesn’t miss a meal. He enjoys going down and that’s his time to mingle. When his birthday roles around, staff make him feel special. The nursing staff on his floor is top notch and responsive. I sleep at night knowing my father is well taken care of. Isn’t that what it’s all about?

Review of North Shore Place

I lived in assisted living and my husband in memory care. The team is knowledgeable in caring for all its residents. Our decision to move here was a wise one. My being here makes it easy for me to be with him whenever I want to see him day or night. I have met many people I have not seen for years. I went to high school with many of them. It was nice to see them after many years.

Hard to transition but doing better

My mother in law is still in the phase of transitioning from her home to this place but then again no matter where we had placed her she would have had a hard time. . She is doing much better thanks to the staff of being empathetic and patient. In fact we went back several times to them before placing her to ease everyones mind that this was going to be the right fit and every time we went back they always welcomed us never made us feel that we were bothersome to them My mother in law is slowly coming around to the food she is slowly starting to eat but I have eaten there a few times and the food is really good. I think once she gets more settled in she might like to participate in the activities they offer. Over all I am very pleased with this location my mom had been in one of their sister communities and she really liked it there as well so I honestly expect the same once she settles in. .

Our choice was a good one.

Our mother (88 y.o., w/moderate dementia, moved to North Shore Place only a month ago, after living independently in her condo for 12 years. However, based only upon this short time, my 2 brothers and I are confident that our choice of NSP was a good one. When a vulnerable loved one lives far from family members, it's critical that one can trust an assisted living facility to have the best interests of residents in mind, since personal observation and monitoring is impossible. While we knew that our mother valued her privacy and autonomy, we increasingly worried about her ability to live safely on her own - she no longer drove, compliance with medication regimens and appropriate nutrition was deteriorating, and, most importantly, self-awareness of her condition and need to recognize when she needed help was rapidly vanishing. Now that she lives at NSP, we know that she receives her medication as ordered, enjoys (really! not just consumes) 3 meals a day in a dining room that resembles a pleasant restaurant, is surrounded by universally-friendly nursing assistants and other staff, and spends most of her free time in a comfortable, one-bedroom apartment that we have decorated with family photographs and other personal items. Activities are readily available, although Mom usually does not participate, while acknowledging that she might "at some time". Maintaining her important relationships with friends and synagogue were of primary importance to us when choosing a facility, and NSP is literally minutes from her previous home and primary shopping area. When we visit, a Marriott hotel is across the street (altho NSP also has a guest room). A car and driver is usually available on a first-come, first-served basis; however, to date, transportation has been provided by ourselves when visiting or friends. More than anything, however, is the positive and welcoming attitude of the staff. Everyone knew Mom's name within days of her arrival. When we are away, she is seated with other residents so that she can feel a part of the community; if she isn't in her apartment when medications are due, the CNA will come looking for her; her forgetfulness is recognized and accommodated. While Mom acknowledges that, while she wishes that her condition did not required she leave her independent life-style, she is glad to be in a place such as North Short Place, and so are we.
