This center could improve in certain areas The staff is nice and attentive but the residents are not nice too them. Some staff lost their job because of that. My mother felt uneasy. It was so unfair Food is not that great. However activities are wonderful and the person who runs them too. Communication with the owner is zero..

I'd like to thank everyone involved in the care of my former husband during his recent stay at the VNA assisted living facility in Somerville. His progressive Parkinson's now requires 24/7 level of care which a son is arranging for him at home in Rochester, so he is moving there. This wouldn't have been possible without the support and care he received at the VNA. His stay there stabilized, for a long period of time, a more rapid downhill course. The staff were consistently caring and respectful as we dealt with a myriad of medical issues. As a physician myself, and having dealt with other family members who progressed through assisted living to higher levels of need, I can unequivocally state that what matters most in any type of similar facility is the staff that deal day in and day out with multiple challenges. Those at the VNA who care for and oversee its residents go above and beyond to meet their needs. Karen M Bell MD

I cant say enough about the VNA Assisted Living facility. Twelve years ago it became clear that my mother needed additional help, and the Lowell Street location was a perfect choice for her. She is an independent person and because of the staffs sensitive and caring approach she was able to maintain her independence while living there. Her apartment was lovely, a beautiful garden available, and help always when needed. She passed away two months ago and I am grateful for the excellent care she received and friendships she formed. She was very happy living there. My family had profound peace of mind knowing the quality of care she was receiving.
