Assisted Living, Independent Living & Memory Care · Dracut, MA

Overview of Giving Tree Senior Living

Giving Tree Senior Living works from Dracut, MA, with memory care, independent living, and assisted living on its list. Independent living residents have a private studio or one-bedroom home and community services, but help with daily tasks isn’t included. Assisted living turns bathing, dressing, medication management, and other everyday tasks into a staff job.

Memory care, for its part, is a secured, staffed setting meant for people who may be at risk of wandering. With three levels in one community, growing needs can be met without relocating.

The community holds 160 beds in studio and one-bedroom units. Pets are welcome, and meals are served restaurant-style, which works for someone who wants a private place to live, a companion animal, and company at the table.

Respite Stay is the program for a short visit while the family member who handles caregiving is traveling or healing. Element Care (PACE Program) is also on the program list.
