The Atrium at Faxon Woods runs respite care and memory care in Quincy, MA, out of The Highlands at Faxon Woods neighborhood.
Memory care at this facility assists a resident with dementia, and the supervision occurs within a secured environment. Respite operates on an alternate schedule. A family reserves a brief stay, and the resident returns home when the typical caregiver is able to resume. That combination suits an individual requiring dementia assistance and a family that needs temporary relief.
There are 54 beds available in suites and studios, and pets are allowed to stay too. The Walk Score of 46 is car-dependent, and most errands require driving.
Outside, the grounds hold a courtyard, walking paths, and patios with garden beds and gazebos. Inside is a light-filled atrium, along with a beauty salon and barber shop. Activities consist of music, arts, cooking and baking, gardening, and reminiscence programs.
