Assisted Living & Memory Care · Mashpee, MA

Overview of Bridges® by Epoch at Mashpee

Bridges® by Epoch at Mashpee offers assisted living and memory care in Mashpee, MA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication, while memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. The community may be a good fit for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia who needs supervised care. Having both care levels can support a resident whose needs grow over time without leaving the community.

The community has 54 beds. Private suites provide a single private living space, while companion suites support a shared living arrangement. Respite care offers a short stay when a resident’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. Outdoor spaces give residents places to spend time outside, and educational events provide scheduled learning activities. A Walk Score of 36 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride for a resident who no longer drives.
