Start Center
Start Center provides assisted living and respite care in Boscawen, NH. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and taking medication. Respite care offers a short stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover, so it may suit a family whose usual caregiver needs brief coverage.
The home has six beds, creating a smaller community where staff and residents get to know each other. Residents can choose a private or shared room: a private room offers one personal space, while a shared room suits someone who wants a companion. Valarie M Tetreault serves as the administrator.
