Mount Pleasant Home
Mount Pleasant Home offers independent living in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. Opened in 1901, it has 60 beds for adults aged 62 and older. The setting provides private living with community services rather than daily care, making it a potential fit for an older adult who wants that arrangement alongside wellness programs and access to assistance around the clock.
Independent living starts at $7,750, while Enhanced is $8,250 and Premium is $8,650. Residents can arrange hair appointments in the on site salon, and a doctor is on staff. Assistance is available 24 hours a day.
Fitness, intergenerational programs, entertainment, and special events give residents organized ways to exercise and take part in activities with people from different generations. The area has a Walk Score of 80 out of 100, so most errands can be completed on foot. That may help a resident who no longer drives get out independently.
