Cornerstone at Canton sits on Revere Street, just a short drive from Interstate 95 and near Canton's downtown, so there's plenty around like shops and restaurants, and the place itself has a comfortable, home-like setting with several indoor and outdoor spots like dining patios, gazebos, raised garden beds, and an enclosed courtyard if you want fresh air or quiet time. The community offers different levels of care, so someone can choose independent living, assisted living, memory care, or even a short-term stay if that's needed, and there's extra support for folks with health problems-things like bathing, dressing, medication management, and even help for those who aren't able to get around much anymore.
A feature that stands out is the Compass Memory Support Neighborhood®, which is secure and connected with the Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Center, offering special programs for people with Alzheimer's disease or other kinds of memory loss. For those with Mild Cognitive Impairment, there's the ConnectedLIFE memory support program, which lets people keep some independence, move about campus, and join activities, plus a memory care and community programming specialist, Julie Wade, helps lead all that. The place includes rooms like bedrooms and living spaces, plus shared areas, a library, and a dedicated theater, so residents can stay active if they want, catch a movie, or just read a book quietly somewhere. Meals are cooked by a professional chef and served restaurant-style with options for special diets or international tastes, and guests can join for dining.
Cornerstone at Canton has modern common areas for socializing, Wi-Fi throughout, pet accommodations, full handicap and wheelchair access, guest parking, and short-term or respite stays with no minimum stay required. The place opened in 2015 and is privately owned by Senior Living Residences, a Massachusetts company, focusing on offering a secure, comfortable space for older adults who need care, community, or both.
