Wingate Senior Living

Very nice common areas and a variety of activities. The walking corridor with a view of nature is also very nice . The space is safe without feeling too confining .

The Residence at Wingate was chosen for our Mother’s new home after much research and many visits to senior communities. She had lived in and owned her own home for over sixty years. Her decision to sell her home and relocate into an independent senior residence was made because she wanted an easier life style with fewer responsibilities. She wanted a place that felt like home, wide spacious corridors, an apartment where she could bring her favorite furniture pieces, full dining and an indoor garage in a convenient location for shopping and of course so her children and grandchildren could easily visit. Wingate met all of her criteria’s. It’s nestled behind one of Needham’s prime shopping and dining areas right off a main highway. It’s an oasis all of its own. The independent community at Wingate is a lovely building surrounded by exquisite landscaping. It’s adorned with comfy outside furnishings, fire pits and pergolas. Inside the Residence is as gorgeous as the outside. Open spacious foyers lead into large sitting rooms with fireplaces. The feel is very much like a home. The décor is modern which compliments the openness of the rooms. The rooms and halls are open to the outside with many windows allowing the sun to filter through all of the areas. The feel of the outside is brought in and the feel and warmth of the inside is brought out. The Residence at Wingate is bright and cheery which provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. It’s like living in a 5 star apartment complex. The dining at Wingate is similar to a country club. The food is excellent and it also provides the residence with a chance to socialize. The staff is also very professional, warm, inviting and caring. There are many activities provided for the residents throughout the day. They have a gym with a trainer and physical therapist to assist while exercising and to instruct classes. They provide a bus service to various shopping locations and bring the residence on outings. They have a full time nurse in house and also provide weekly house cleaning. Our Mother is extremely happy at The Residence at Wingate. As a family we are pleased because they make an effort to welcome you and invite you to become a part of the community. They provide the residents with a private dining room you can reserve for entertaining your friends and family. The Residence at Wingate is a vibrant family oriented senior community that we are happy to call my Mother’s new home. Thank you to all at Wingate, The Barrett family

Although it's been only a brief time that my father has been at the Epoch at Blackstone Blvd., the staff has provided excellent care. They have been proactive in meeting the needs of my father and family members in dealing with his dementia. It has been a relief to know, that although he can't be living in his own home, that the Epoch is providing him with a warm environment.

Our experience with them was only a short one, but we really loved The Residences at Wingate! It was a nice looking place, and every person on the staff was lovely, kind, and professional. They're just uniformly great people, from the administration down to the aides.

Dad feels comfortable, warm, & safe. He gets along with all the other residents. EPOCH staff is friendly, efficient, and well mannered. Dad loves the food. Everyone in my family feel a lot better now that Dad in a safe environment. Dad was fearful at first, but within days he accepted everything.

We have had a great two week beginning with our Dad here in the Memory Care community. He seems to be transitioning well with the help of a wonderful caring and supportive staff. They have all been great in helping us navigate this foreign territory, from moving in to finding a doctor, and dealing with health insurance issues. They not only look to serve the new resident but the whole family in this new stage of life that is very emotionally charged.

Very nice facility, but believe the new construction will be a problem with my more who is chemically sensitive

Love it and am considering it.

I have lived at Hillside Senior Apartment Homes in Gaithersburg, MD since January this year. The communication, helpfulness, and professionalism from the current manager, [name removed] and her assistant [name removed] has been outstanding. The manager has big socialization plans for Hillside residents when the pandemic is over. The management is always attentive to any concerns I have. I highly recommend this community for those who are searching for safe, quality living.

I want to praise the staff at Wingate on the East Side for their prompt and compassionate response to a referral that I made on behalf of a patient. They were flexible with schedules, interviews and special requests, and were very adaptable when our plans changed. I was always able to reach individuals there for questions and concerns, and they made the admissions process extremely manageable. I would like to especially mention [name removed], RN and [name removed] for their focused attention and caring.

The experience at Hillside is friendly, profeeesional and supportive. I moved here a few weeks ago and found the living space beautiful, liveable and clean. Big cheery windows, quiet surroundings despite it's location near major transport arteries. Everyone here is helpful and when maintenance is required, more than responsive. This place will fill up fast.

The entire staff is so friendly and attentive, from the ladies at the front desk to the aides and nurses. They are wonderful! Mom and Dad have been at Wingate for almost a year and we have been very pleased with the care they are receiving. The staff is very accommodating and we have developed a strong partnership in the care of my parents. Mom and Dad are involved in activities through out the day and especially enjoy the music (they even dance!) and socializing with residents in the beautiful dining area.

I consider all of the staff part of my family. They will help you with any request! That are the best!

Wingate is a great place to live when your golden age arises

Common kitchen area is not very clean.

Everyone was friendly and answered all of my questions from my initial visit until the day my mom moved in. It is a very caring facility. The employees know the names of the residents and more importantly treat them with respect. I feel comfortable with my mom living there and feel she is safe and well taken care of.

They offer multiple levels of assisted living care which allows residents to age in place without having to move to another community. They offer a number of activities that benefit my loved one socially. When we toured the community we really had good vibes and good feelings about the staff and the community. My loved one previously had someone who had also stayed here and they had a good experience here as well. The community is very beautiful and very well maintained.

I would say that the staff was very caring but could be more attentive. I picked the place because it was close to my house and my mother liked it the best after touring a few facilities. I would recommend.

Very clean. Variety of daily activities. Residents seem happy and are friendly. The pool is a big feature for my mother. The head nurse has been very helpful. It's only been a couple of months so we are still getting adjusted. I do wish they provided an adjustment guide sort of thing or checked in with you about your experience as you are adjusting and learning. Once we filed out the contract and moved in no one from the front office has checked with us regarding our experience so far.

Staff very approachable and available for family concerns. Brochure says 90 min of assisted living staff but that is not always the case. Will come when called. Do clean each week and for a fee will do laundry. The place is clean and bright. Activities available each day or weekly.
