I selected Chestnut Park primarily for one reason: the staff. They are kind, thoughtful, attentive, helpful, patient, cheerful, and observant. I visit my mother every day and have zero complaints. She adjusted beautifully to living in their memory unit. The apartments and hallways have large windows which help to make all bright and feel more like home. Cleanliness is excellent and the food is quite good too. I was reticent to move my mother to an assisted living, but it was necessary. I did so as soon as we both had our Covid vaccines. I feel that this has been a very good move for her. Again, the reason for this is the quality of the staff. It is the personal care and genuine interest in the well being of each resident that makes it feel like home. Plus I can bring my dog to visit and that always puts a smile on mom's face.

Finding a new home for my grandma was a really difficult choice. Chesnut Park proved to be a great one. My grandma and my family and I had a positive experience there. The staff is friendly, positive, encouraging and patient with visitors and residents. I couldn't believe how calm they stayed with my grandma and her fellow residents, despite some difficult tasks and moods. She was greeted by name constantly as she moved down the halls, which I know meant a lot to her. They were responsive and respectful of my families requests and needs for my gram. They work hard to provide appropriate activity for the residents, keeping them moving and socializing to the best of their abilities. Whenever I visited I had to hunt her down! I might find her at: the afternoon movie, a discussion group, music therapy, snack time, sitting outside or getting her nails done. Then, even at the end when my gram passed, the staff was SO lovely. The managers met us at the door, expressed condolences, offering hugs and kind words. They had cleaned her room up, carefully arranged her so she looked as though she was sleeping peacefully (sounds weird but in the moment but that means a lot) and put out extra tissues, water, and chairs. They even asked if there was any staff she would've wanted to attend the services. It was such a touching gesture, for some who would otherwise not have many at a service I'm sure it would be especially meaningful. Overall, Chesnut Park provided a great experience for us during a difficult time, thank you.
Great people, great food, great care, great activities and a sense of community in the heart of one of Boston’s most diverse neighborhoods. My family has been glad to share our parents with Benchmark’s Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle community.
CPCC offers a great place for those in need of assisted or independent living. There are a wide variety of activities occupying the day and frequently performers from the outside come in to share their gifts.
Excellent location and top notch care. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a supportive living environment for anyone seeking a senior community in the Brookline area.
