Searching for an assisted living home for your loved one(s) can be daunting. Neville Place at Fresh Pond in Cambridge MA felt right from day one to today, six years later. The level of care has been consistently excellent. The staff’s daily commitment to help residents, including my sister, is real. Sherry W

The person who showed us round didn't seem to want to sell the place rather to share what it had to offer openly. Lovely location next to a reservation, great staff, food looks good, quite a few activities each day. Downside was you have to organize nurse/doctor, there are limits to care they can provide (which may mean another move) and that the place doesn't cater for any other faith than Christians. This is in our short-list.

After looking at several senior living homes, we found Neville Place to be the best for our needs and peace of mind knowing that our relative would be cared for in a respectful and caring way. I look forward to our visits and hearing how happy she is and how much she loves the activities and the food. She loves the building is and is only in her apartment to sleep. After living alone for many years and being independent, she has finally found a true sense of "home" with her new friends. And her family can rest assured that she's not alone anymore and is receiving wonderful care along with all the amenities of a family setting.

My loved ones have only been here a short time, but so far we're very pleased with how things are going at Neville Place! The staff here does a great job in general, the nurses are wonderful and the activities directors also do a great job! I really appreciate how experienced and knowledgeable they are when it comes to dealing with Alzheimer's Disease. They understand the issues that will come up, and how best to handle them, without simply resorting to more medication.

she was very nice & was able to answer all of our questions. Was pleasantly surprised that the inside of the building was very bright and cheery didn't get that feeling from the outside of the building. Loved the whole program on diet and activites including the art room. The compass program was why went there and was impressed with that whole side, so far the best memory care unit we have seen.

A Place for Mom has scored Neville Place 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
