About The Residence at Watertown Square

from Oasis Senior Advisors

The Residence at Watertown Square offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care within the same community. Residents with advanced dementia, wandering behaviors—whether in the morning or evening—elopement risk, or a tendency to stay up all night can be accommodated. The team also supports people who use oxygen, adults under 60 who need an assisted-living setting, and diabetics who manage their condition with oral medication.

Medical oversight is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call around the clock. Care aides remain awake overnight, and each apartment is linked to a pull-cord alert system. The building is secured with on-site staff 24/7, door alarms, and a fenced rear area. On-site podiatry visits are available, and caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfers are handled for residents who use a walker or wheelchair, need stand-by help, or require a one-person lift. An activity director coordinates daily programs designed to keep residents engaged and safe.

Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnishings, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate; features vary by unit. Scheduled housekeeping and laundry are standard for assisted living and memory care, while residents in Independent Living can elect light housekeeping and laundry services as needed.

Meals are available three ways: a set menu, made-to-order options, or in-room dining. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. Therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, mechanical-soft, or diabetic meals are routinely accommodated.

Community amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, concierge desk, library, several special-interest clubs, and proximity to public transportation.

#1 in Watertown, MA

Residents and their families say:

This community has received numerous positive remarks for its convenience, beautiful units, and well-maintained facilities, with many reviewers especially praising the quality of food and the variety of activities available. The staff is consistently described as friendly, accommodating, and loving, with one reviewer specifically noting the outstanding follow-up and care displayed by the management. The location is highlighted for its urban atmosphere and good access to nearby services such as Dunkin Donuts, CVS, and local restaurants. Additionally, the dining experience is lauded for its flexibility in dining hours and the option to eat at any time desired.

However, some concerns were mentioned, including the lack of on-site medical personnel, which was a drawback for one reviewer. The size of the units seemed to be a point of concern for another, describing them as wonderful but small. Despite these individual criticisms, no specific negative points were mentioned by multiple reviewers, indicating they are not widespread complaints. The community's approach to welcoming new residents, the broad range of activities, and the hands-on, accountable management style were all aspects that contributed to the positive experiences shared by many. The availability of daily activities and outings, as well as the overall cleanliness and newness of the facility, were elements that reviewers found particularly pleasing.
