I live out of state and rely on one of my sister’s to interface with Braemar week to week in the care of our mother. I come several times a year and am always grateful that we found Braemar. She had been at two other facilities previously and the care wasn’t as personal. It makes Braemar such a gift.

They have made accommodations for her that suit her needs. They are patient and kind with her dementia.

My several times a year visits are a blessing. Though, I am not known as well as my sister is, I am greeted cordially and have even developed over the past few years a relationship with one of her aides. There is genuine care and love for my mother. When I walk with my mother down the hall, staff and residents, greet her by name. Often, they remark on her kindness or niceness.

It is so hard to leave a parent in a facility, especially a parent who made her family’s life a dream with her thoughtfulness. I am so very grateful for the ways Braemar cares for my mother. It has given me such peace of mind. Thank you, Braemar, for the almost six years of care you have given my mother! Our family is very grateful!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words. We are truly lucky to have the support of such amazing families.

What a GOD SEND the Braemar Hamlet at Medford was for my Aunt Agnes - a resident for 9 years. As a frequent visitor; I met all the workers from Tracey (Admin); Winnie (Wellness); Heidi (Banking and Recreation); Lisa & Jean, Tammy (Recreation); Nurses (from Cindy on down); Aids; PT, cafeteria workers; (more than I can name), etc. For nine years the staff included me in all updates on my Aunt (health, activities, her solo singing in the chorus, when she lost her eyeglasses, hospitalizations (my Aunt has tremendous anxiety) etc.) When my Aunt first entered the Braemar Hamlet she was very cognizent of her surroundings and able to take care of her personal needs (eatting and washing). As her memory faded; and, as she declined in health - the Hamlet toileted her every 2 hours; ensured she was clean and presentable; engaged her in activities and continued to keep me informed. I phoned the Hamlet many times....and, someone always answered and they always knew where my Aunt was in the facility. Over time, my Aunt's needs exceeded assisted living (she was dehydrated, had severe memory loss and no longer able to remember to brush her teeth). The Braemar Hamlet staff helped me make the decision to move her to a full nursing home. This was the hardest decision of my life - which the Braemar Hamlet staff helped guide me and made this transition easier for both my Aunt and me. I wish I didn't have to move her. The Braemar Hamlet is clean, caring, pays attention to dietary needs (my Aunt got her ice cream every day); has a great Wellness staff and many recreational activities. I give this facility a 5 Star....with its caring attitude and professionalism. (BTW - I visited 19 assisted living facilities - and, for my Aunt - this was the best on Long Island.) If I needed an assisted living for another family member or myself - this is the environment I would want to be in.

Thank You Everyone at the Braemar Hamlet, especially Tracy Moodie. You manage the staff exceptionally. Your compassion is evident with all the residents.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words. We are truly lucky to have the support of such amazing families.

My mother will be 95 years old this summer. She is incontinent and has advanced dementia. After living in a senior residence and then another assisted living facility, we moved her to Braemar Living of Medford in June of 2019.

Because of her dementia, I was told that if she became a “flight risk” she would not be able to stay. I totally understood this as the facility does not have a lock down unit, and of course this is in her own best interest, but I knew it would not be a problem as my mother did not like going out when it was too sunny, or rainy or too windy or too hot or too cold. You get the picture.

From the first week she lived there, I was amazed at the kindness and courtesy she received by all of the staff. The aids treated her with love and respect, and the director, Tracy Moodie gave a special dispensation for Mom to eat meals over a longer period of time to accommodate the way she is such a slow eater. (She always was!)

When I walk down the hall with Mom, every employee we pass says hello and calls her by name. When she needs medical care, the nurses are always helpful and kind. We love Wendy in Wellness who has always looked out for Mom.

The staff are very helpful. Lisa, Jeremy and Mandy who work at the front desk are always welcoming with a friendly greeting. And quick to answer questions I may have.

Juan in maintenance has been helpful and friendly when I needed help with a stuck window or a chirpy smoke detector or changing the toilet seat for a higher one for Mom.

I can’t say enough about the aids who gently and lovingly care for and nurture my mother. The ones I know best are Rosa and Mariana and Patricia, and I can see how she responds to them with love too.

I know there are so many other people there, whose names I can’t remember who have provided excellent service and care for my mother. I would be lost without them all! Thank you all for making these last six years safe and happy ones for my mother and for giving my sisters and me, the peace of mind that Mom is in good hands.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words. We are truly lucky to have the support of such amazing families.

I received a tour of the facility, and I couldn't be more impressed. Laura the administrator and Beljanny from admissions were so professional and personable. They explained everything there is to know about the facility and answered all my questions. As well, the facility was well maintained and kept very clean. It is a very inviting place, and I would definitely recommend others to go to this wonderful place and call it their home.

My mom is a resident at Braemar. I can't say enough good things about the whole experience, from getting her assessed, right through to move in day and beyond. Daniel was our initial point of contact and she has been by our side making sure everything is going smoothly. Daniel has been so friendly, professional and caring. She is always available to answer your call with any question or concern. All of the staff quickly got to know my mom and what her personal needs were going to be. She is treated like a person, not a number. The dining staff are always friendly with a smile on their faces as they serve the meals to the residence. I have been there to visit my mom at all different times of the day, and I have always encountered very helpful and kind staff. The place is very clean and well maintained. My mom is up dancing every chance she gets. There are tons of activities available for everyone! We are very happy!!! Thank you Braemar !!!

My mother is a resident of Braemar's Memory Care Unit, and has been for almost 6 years. I watch closely and visit often. If I see something that concerns me, I speak up. I have been very pleased with her care but, more importantly, Mom seems satisfied in her surroundings.
