My Mom has transitioned to The Residence At Watertown Square from independent living. It has been approximately seven weeks, I cannot express how wonderful the transition has been.<br><br>The staff is beyond incredible and accommodating.<br><br>The residence themselves are so kind, sweet and welcomed my Mom with open arms.<br><br>She is going to be 93 on her next birthday and to hear her say she’s busy with her friends during the day. It just makes me smile.<br><br>She is rejuvenated!

The Residence at Watertown Square came to the rescue when we needed an assisted living facility that could accommodate a married couple with very different level-of-care needs. What attracted us to the facility is their flexible nursing care, which ranges from zero to 10, from fully independent adult to nursing home level assistance when needed.<br><br>The Residence at Watertown Square provides a lovely and intimate setting for their vibrant community. The staff was warm and welcoming. The Residence proved to be a critical link in our loved ones’ healthcare journey.
