Community Reviews
Excellent experience
reviewed on: 05/19/2020 by PJEvery time we go into Blue Hills, it seems very clean. There is always staff on site making sure the space is spotless. Everyone on staff is very friendly and helpful. They are good people! Blue Hills is a great value and the care is wonderful for the price. My mother has fallen a couple of times and the care giving staff has always been right there to immediately help her. We personally have not eaten on-site, however we have seen the dinner plates and the food always looks good. They clearly eat well here! Blue Hills is a great place and we are very comfortable having my mother there!
Accommodating staff!!
reviewed on: 02/24/2017 by AnonymousMy mother said that if she ever had to go back to a community, the Blue Hills Rest Home is where she would want to go. During her initial short stay, the staff treated her very well. The ladies were very sweet and accommodating. The only complaints that she had was her roommate was hard of hearing, so she would have the television too loud. Also, she had to share the bathroom with 4 other people.
Great staff!!
reviewed on: 03/07/2017 by AnonymousI thought the staff at this community was really great and made sure to give us a detailed tour of there home. They had a activity program in place for all of the residents and a meal plan that provides them three meals a day which I thought was impressive. They just did not have any private rooms available and that would not work out for my mother and her needs. Other than that I have no complaints everything was great.

reviewed on: 10/28/2013 by Linda WThis is a great home. All the residents are treated with upmost respect. It is like living in your our home. Food and nurses are wonderful. I would say if you have to place your love one in a nursing home this is the place to take them.
They do a really good job.
reviewed on: 02/26/2014 by ScottThe food is good, I would say it is five. They do a really good job. It can be difficult to leave sometimes, but most of the time they do a really good job of distracting her for us. It would be nice if there was a proactive approach to that, maybe when families come in they could have an idea of when they need someone to help distract them.
