The Residence at Boylston Place
The Residence at Boylston Place offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Chestnut Hill, MA. Independent living provides a private home with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with dressing, bathing, and medication without requiring a resident to leave their own apartment. Memory care is provided in a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
The community has 99 beds, with studio, one bedroom, and two bedroom layouts. A studio suits someone who wants one private space, while a two bedroom layout may work for a couple moving together or for someone who wants a companion. Having several care levels and respite care on one campus may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time, or a family needing short term support. A Walk Score of 78 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently.
