Overview of Scott-Farrar at Peterborourgh

Peterborough’s Scott-Farrar community houses 76 residents under a single roof that spans three levels of care: independent living, assisted living, and memory care. That range matters for families thinking ahead, since a resident’s needs can shift without forcing a move across town. Angela M Pelletier administers the property at 11 Elm Street.

Getting around the immediate neighborhood on foot is limited. The Walk Score here is 4, solidly car-dependent territory, so most errands and outings call for a vehicle rather than a stroll down the block. Inside, though, the pace of support doesn’t depend on what’s outside the door. Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants staff the building around the clock.

Rehabilitation runs in-house too. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are all available on-site, sparing residents recovering from a fall, surgery, or illness the extra step of outside appointments. Transportation to medical visits is arranged for anything that does require leaving the building. Twice-weekly housekeeping and laundry service, plus an on-site salon, cover the practical side of daily living.

Activity programming leans social, recreational, cultural, and creative, filling out the calendar beyond basic care. Residents can also bring their pets, a detail that tends to matter more than it might seem for families weighing a move. Taking the tiered care model, on-site therapy, and steady staffing, Scott-Farrar suits older adults and families who want room to age in place across changing needs.
