- Becoming socially withdrawn and depressed

HOW DO YOU ENSURE THE SAFETY OF RESIDENTS?
Our secure Memory Care neighborhood prevents wandering – and our engaging programs eliminate the boredom and restlessness that cause the urge to wander. Suites are enhanced with safety measures in bathrooms, strategic lighting, and response systems.
HOW DO YOU HANDLE MEDICATION MANAGEMENT?
Our Wellness Team is available to assist residents with medication management. Gentle reminders and encouragement to take medications on the appropriate schedule are delivered by trained staff.
MY PARENT OFTEN FORGETS TO EAT. HOW DO YOU PREVENT THIS?
Our chefs create healthy meals tailored to specific diets, helping to improve your loved one’s overall health, particularly if they were not eating well prior to moving. This prevents them from forgetting to eat and reduces the risk of them eating foods that don’t provide the needed nourishment. We also offer a hydration program.
ARE THERE PAYMENT OPTIONS FOR MEMORY CARE?
Yes. There’s no buy-in contract at Allerton House Hingham. Residents pay a small application fee and then the cost of monthly apartment rental. We provide the resource contacts to help with lowering the monthly expenses through programs such as Veterans Aid & Attendance.
IS ALLERTON HOUSE HINGHAM MANAGED LOCALLY?
Yes. Allerton House Hingham is managed by Welch Senior Living, headquartered in Norwell, Massachusetts. Welch Senior Living has been serving seniors and their families on Boston’s South Shore for 75 years.
