Mason Wright
Mason Wright offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Springfield, MA, in the Six Corners neighborhood. Assisted living helps with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while allowing a resident to maintain a private living space; Independent living supports private living without daily care, and memory care provides supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having all three care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time.
The home has 90 beds. Its Walk Score of 82 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Each kitchenette includes a refrigerator and sink, while the Rte 66 Diner provides space for receptions and family gatherings.
