The Residence at Orchard Grove is an amazing place to come in everyday to work. Theirs always warm and friendly faces, and the events where we get together and enjoy are my favorites!
Introduction to and tour of facility was wonderful, warm, welcoming and very informative. Staff is very responsive
It has been a very positive experience the staff is friendly and attentive to my requests.
Love the events and barbecues for the residents. It’s great to see the staff interact with the residents. Everyone is so upbeat and accommodating.
Highest recommendations to the Residence at Orchard Grove. My mother recently went into the Reflections memory care program at this facility. Melissa was fantastic helping every step of the way and even holding my hand to comfort me while I cried during our meetings. This was the one of the most difficult decisions I’ve ever had to make. Reflecting on this now I can confidently say that this was the best decision I could have made for my mother. My mother’s transition was a success, and to my surprise I’ve even seen an improvement in her overall. Her glow is back! She is engaged in activities all day long, has made a group of friends, and is less agitated and anxious than ever before. I try calling her throughout the day and visit multiple times per week and she is never in her room - she is busy at art class, exercise, watching a concert, playing games, etc. Big shout out to the memory care Director Lynne and the whole team who, during my mothers transition dealt with my multiple check-ins per day (every day). They are true professionals who are experts in dealing with Alzheimer’s and dementia and executed a very successful transition plan. This success is a testament to how dedicated these individuals are to the happiness of each and every one of their residents. Very highly recommend The Residence at Orchard Grove Memory care!!!
Always a 5 star experience! Everyone goes above and beyond to make sure the residents and their families are happy! All events are top notch and the food is excellent! Thank you!
As a visitor I have always been impressed with the cleanliness, the staff is amazing and the food has never disappointed!
My experience with The Residence at Orchard has been nothing less than fantastic. Right from the start we were made to feel at home and at ease. The staff is great and very attentive.. the food is beyond good. Their are a variety of activities and the everyday happy is my moms favorite.
The Residence at Orchard Grove is an outstanding senior living community. It was hard watching my loved ones struggle at home but even harder to get them to agree to try it. But since moving into the community, I seen them manage better. The food is outstanding and the staff and associates are so caring and friendly. I would highly recommend to check this community out .
My sister is a resident at The Residence at Orchard Grove and things have been very good for her at this facility. Everyone is so nice and friendly. The meals are good. Communication with the family is excellent. My sister cleans her own living space, so I'm not sure about housekeeping. I would recommend The Residence at Orchard Grove to family and friends.
The community was clean. The staff was friendly. The residents all had wonderful things to say about living there. A woman name. [name removed] showed me around and she was caring and compassionate about my mom’s care needs.
I visited this facility
The Residence At Orchard Grove was beautiful. The staff was fantastic. The people looked extremely happy and they had a lot of different programs that they offered. They have activities where they could take them to go bowling or they could go on a bus ride to different places. They have people come into the facility, whether to paint or play music. They have a movie night every night for them if they choose to do so. I tried their banana bread, which was something that they sent me, and it was very good.
I would rate Orchard Grove as 5s all they way down. They are exceptional. I know my sister recommended that facility to an elderly woman who was planning on moving on her own. My mother, originally not happy with moving back to the north, totally LOVES it there. We got her a studio apartment and she is extremely happy. They not only treat their residents like gold, but they treat the families the same way. Maintenance staff, cooks, dining room help, clinical and administrative office staff are beyond friendly and caring. My family is very happy we chose them!!
I am not sure if I am the best one to answer these questions, but based off of my overall experience and interactions, I would rate everything a 5! The food would definitely be a 5 plus. they have an on site nurse practitioner and she is very helpful. They also have a van service that is good. Staff have all been very friendly and professional. I would recommend The Residence at Orchard Grove to anyone who needs a managed-living situation.
I visited this facility
I toured The Residence At Orchard Grove. The woman who helped us was very hospitable. She informed us all about the residents and what services they had. The room we saw was very nice, very modern, and up-to-date. It has nice closets, and you can have a refrigerator and a microwave. The staff who took us around was very knowledgeable and very helpful. They gave me a complimentary bread for my mother to take home. It was very good, my mother liked it. They had beautiful, covered porches and a beautiful barbecue-patio area.
The staff are warm and caring. Everyone helped my sister settle in and made her feel welcome. The facility is beautiful and well maintained.
The food is very good and based on our experience we would recommend this community to other families.

We have chosen The Residence At Orchard Grove for my parents due to its size and the menu offerings. I have not tried the food, but I looked at it. The presentation was very nice. They have different levels of care. Most things were included in the base price. They have a fitness area, a salon, a theater, and an activity room.
The place is very clean. It is right on the borderline of Northborough, so there is a big shopping center down the street on Route 20. There are shopping centers and whatnot. The university is right up the street.
My loved one, is quite happy with the food. It is expensive. We picked this location because, of the location, and it's closer to my home.
We have loved our experience with this community. They have great food, and the people are nice. There are three meals a day served to the residents and they have choices to choose from.
They are providing laundry and housekeeping services for my loved one.
Some of the activities include: bingo, field trips, swing dancing, and more for the residents to participate in.
If you're looking for a fabulous Assisted Living facility, this is the one! My elderly mother compared many places and chose Orchard Grove for many reasons. The food is prepared by chefs in a restaurant / hotel style. They have a full menu and specials daily. You are waited on in a beautiful dining room and you can order as much as you want. Meals are available anytime and you eat with whoever you choose. Our family has eaten there and it was 5-star fabulous...even Filet Mignon. The rooms are large and cleaned daily; however, it is the staff and residents that won my mother over. Everyone there is friendly and goes out of their way to include everyone. The atmosphere is happy and energetic all the time. There are so many fun activities that you pick and choose what you're interested in daily. My mother, who is very shy and introverted, has made a lot of friends; gone to exercise classes, cooking demonstrations, craft activities, movie nights, group games, concerts and more. She is happier than she's been in months and recently told me she feels more at home in Orchard Grove than her own house. That's an incredible feeling for us. She (and us) picked the right place for her. We couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you so much Melissa and Karen and everyone there!
It seems like when people come to The Residences at Orchard Grove they come because of the activities. It seems like they want the residents to just live their fullest life here, it does not feel institutional at all. They have so much going on every single day - there is bingo, board games, movies, arts and crafts, different exercises classes and social hours. Our loved one is really enjoying the meals and dining service and we would definitely recommend this community to other families.
We have had a great experience with Orchard Grove. My mother in law, Connie, had a smooth transition leaving her life long home to Orchard Grove. She LOVES all of the activities and her only complaint is that she doesn't have time to do them all! We recently enjoyed a wonderful cookout for all of the families. The food was delicious and It was nice to meet all of Connie's new friends. Thank you for welcoming Connie into your community!
Another outstanding event!!! Thank you to the entire Orchard Grove Community for taking such great care of our loved ones!!! And inviting Family members to attend the 2022 end of Summer BBQ!!
Food and treats were awesome!!!
Kindness, compassion, humor and overall concern,for all, is evident in every thing you do!
We are blessed to call the Residence at Orchard Grove “home” for our Mom.
Keep up the great work and fun too!
Thank you!
Paulyne’s Family
We feel so fortunate to have found Orchard Grove! The staff are always kind and respectful of the residents. There are activities, outings, and enrichment opportunities with art, music and exercise. Our family member is especially pleased with the food. The residents are as welcoming as the staff and our family member now has many wonderful new friends.
I visited this facility
We went to The Residence at Orchard Grove. My friend liked everything. She liked the facilities, she liked the people, and she liked the rooms. We went to a studio that was available at the time, and she liked it. The staff who toured us was very cordial and very happy with everybody. Melissa was very informative. The staff were great. We did not have the time to try their food, but we were invited to come back and have lunch with Melissa. They sent my friend home with a slice of lemon bread, so she had a little something for her coffee. We were able to see exercises, and in another area, they were doing puzzles. They showed her the art room. It was wonderful. It's only four years old and I could see everything is new. It looks like they always keep upgrading. It looks very nice.
Our tour experience with Residence at Orchard Grove was great. The place seemed very nice and they had a lot to offer, but it was EXTRMELY expensive. It was about double what my parents are paying now at their current facility and they have the same amenities.
Absolutely an amazing place of work and the most comfortable work environment!!
The administrator [name removed] is above and beyond. She has really done a great job with our move-in and our placement. My parents can't say enough good things about the nurses and PCAs there. They're very helpful, friendly, and professional. The facility is always clean. Their trash is taken out regularly, carpets are vacuumed, floors washed, beds are made. My parents tell me the food is excellent. I think it's a really good value.
We went with The Residence at Orchard Grove because they were willing to waive the up front fee for us. The communication with the director up top the point that mu uncle actually went into the facility was wonderful. Once he was here there were a few issues that did arise and the communication was poor and I was disappointed with that. They had plenty of great activities provided for the residents but he did not participate. I would definitely recommend them to others looking, overall the quality of care is top notch in my opinion.
I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident
The Residence at Orchard Grove is a beautiful facility. The food is available 24/7 if you want to eat and it's been very easy and a very wonderful experience for my father. There's a refrigerator, a stove, and a microwave in his apartment. The staff has been marvelous so far. They've been very helpful and the residents have been nice, too. There's stuff going on in the morning and afternoons. They take day trips, they're doing a lobster bake this summer, they have different cookouts, and a happy hour every day. They had a singer yesterday doing 40's music. So, everything is covered and taken care of.
This is a nice clean community. Everyone here is very friendly. The staff are quick to respond to questions or concerns we may have over our loved one.
My loved one thinks the food is delicious. There are a lot of activities for the residents to choose from to participate in.
We really liked The Residence at Orchard Grove, it seemed like a nice facility. We were impressed with the lady who was showing us around on the tour. We did not like the rooms, the layout of it was strange which is why we decided against them.
I have a family member that lives at Orchard Grove and this place is amazing. The staff is so attentive and always smiling, take the best care of my loved one. When you drive up to Orchard Grove it feels as if you are pulling into a lodge up in NH, warm and fuzzy.
Great job Orchard Grove!
Karen, the granddaughter of a special loved one.
This community was great they just were only assisted living and we needed independent living. my loved one was just not at this point yet. The tours were great my loved one was just not at that point yet.
This community was newer. The tour was really good. The guide was great
Went on a virtual tour for my mom. This is a five start facility for sure. Only 3 years old and well maintained. Look like new with all the modern conveniences. 1 bedroom seem spacious and would be a good fit for my mom coming from a 2 bedroom beautiful condo. Many activities and options. Loved that they can have their dining room open 7am-7pm so not on such a tight schedule. 24-7 nursing on site.

I live three hours away. The place is understandably in lockdown from coronovirus and their response to protect everyone has been outstanding. My husbands father fell at his house so we need to visit him in Waltham Sunday. I think ok, I need to see my parents as I can now see them for half an hour visits and I will be down there to see my father in law! Orchard groove has a very safe outdoor , socially distanced visitation situation. I call only to find out there is no visiting on sundays but they had a time slot Saturday I could come. Well I explained that wouldn’t work and was told sorry That I couldn’t come on Saturday. I hung up in tears and emailed management and went on their fb page. I got a response in about an hour back via email and phone saying they would make an exception under these circumstances. So they get four stars instead of the one star I initially posted when I was thinking all was lost. Not a five because : 1. There needs to be more proactive measures so as not to cause undue stress 2. Perhaps more training for any substitutes when normal person isn’t there as Mary Beth has always been great, but go figure she wasn’t there today. 3. Maybe a longer visit ( I would take even 45 minutes) for those that come from a far.
I think since it is a smaller place it has much more personal interaction. Everyone is on a first name basis, very friendly. Very personal one on one care. If they do not see someone they seek them out to make sure everything is okay. Food is excellent, fairly new and a very pretty place.
