Duxbury House

My mom spent the last year and a half of her life at Duxbury House and I can honestly say I can't imagine her receiving better care anywhere. It's not just the physical space, which is perfectly planned out and beautifully decorated, but the feel of Duxbury House, its character, its comfort, its pervasive joy. This is largely due to the remarkable staff. No matter the assigned role, their care is compassionate and patient and their attentiveness to each resident is sincere and gentle. The range of activities is amazing, as is the staff's ability to encourage participation, and the opportunity for socializing is ever-present. It's where my mom made her last friends in life. She was a lucky woman and my family and I will be forever grateful.

Duxbury House is one of the very best memory care units on the South Shore. Not only is the space thoughtfully designed and decorated in a soothing palette, but what sets this community above the others is the compassionate care provided by each staff member. This is the detail I always encourage my clients to look for and it is evident that Duxbury House carefully selects employees who all work together to exceed expectations. It is a warm and genuine environment, providing the very best care to meet the needs of vulnerable residents and their families.

My parents' move to Duxbury House has been a godsend for them and our family. The staff are wonderful - caring, loving, good-humored and attentive, and they are really attuned to working with those with dementia. The living areas, both private and communal are welcoming and beautiful, and there are many different activities on offer for residents to choose among from day to day. The food is very good and always beautifully prepared and presented. There is also a very welcoming atmosphere toward family members. Knowing that Mom and Dad are being cared for 24/7 by such wonderful people is a huge relief for us. Thanks to everyone at Duxbury House!

Moved my Grandmother in this summer and its been fantastic. Transition was very smooth as they took her into an activity as soon as we got there. Activity directors are amazing. She hadnt left her house in over a year and in only a few weeks theyve had her at the Beach, movies, ice cream, etc. They also do fun and mind engaging activities in house every day. Its small enough they can give everyone one on one attention but big enough there are plenty of people around to socialize with and keep her active. Very clean and organized. Was a little nervous being from a small house in Pembroke that she'd feel out of place "Duxbury" but not an issue at all. Her fellow residents and the staff are so welcoming. A+ place.
