Benchmark Senior Living at Woburn provides assisted-living as its core level of care. Residents receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, and the community supports short-term respite stays for those recovering from illness or giving family caregivers a break. Ongoing diabetes management is available, including blood-glucose monitoring and diet oversight. A licensed speech therapist comes on site for residents who need help with communication or swallowing issues, allowing therapy goals to be pursued without leaving the building.
The residence is a secured community, giving an added layer of safety for individuals who may wander or who benefit from controlled entry and exit points. Care staff are on site around the clock to respond to emergencies, monitor health changes, and coordinate with outside physicians and hospitals when necessary. Regular wellness checks, electronic call systems, and discreet in-apartment safety features support consistent oversight while respecting privacy.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and not every unit offers every feature, but selections can include wheelchair-accessible showers, kitchenettes, individual climate control, Wi-Fi, and handicap-accessible design. Common areas offer a central fireplace, a piano for resident use, multiple outdoor sitting areas, and on-site parking. The community is pet friendly, although policies may differ by apartment type and animal size, so it is best to confirm details in advance.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served restaurant-style three times daily, with an all-day dining menu for residents who prefer flexible hours. Menus rotate to include international dishes alongside familiar favorites, and specialized diets—such as carbohydrate-controlled plates for diabetes—are accommodated. Guests can join residents for meals, allowing families to share time together without leaving the property.
Amenities and programs cover a broad range of interests. The library and computer lounge support quiet study, while the activity center hosts fitness classes, chair yoga, karaoke, dances, and live music events. Residents can enjoy the swimming pool, tend vegetables in raised garden beds, or join scheduled social outings. Intergenerational programs bring in local students for projects and birthday parties, and a regular happy hour encourages informal socializing. Ongoing fitness programs help residents maintain strength, and outdoor access lets them walk the grounds when weather permits.
