Summaries are ours and are marked “Summary”; quoted text is AGE’s own, as printed in reports scanned to text (spelling slips are AGE’s or the scan’s), shortened where marked [...]. Rule descriptions come from 651 CMR 12.00 as in force on the report date. AGE’s page for this residence links each report.
What these terms mean
651 CMR 12.09(2): AGE "shall conduct compliance reviews of Assisted Living Residences no less than once every two years. In addition, [AGE] may conduct a compliance review any time it has cause to believe that an Assisted Living Residence is in violation" of the law or its regulations.
651 CMR 12.09(4)(b): a notice of noncompliance "shall describe the noncompliance with particularity, indicate the specific portion of the law(s) or regulation(s) which have been violated, and shall include the corrective action to be taken."
651 CMR 12.09(4)(c) and (d): AGE may require corrective action, including "Ceasing the enrollment of new Residents" or "Reducing the number of Residents served", and may "deny, revoke, suspend, modify or refuse to issue or renew a Certification."
A finding marked repeat is one AGE also cited at an earlier review. AGE does not rate findings by severity in these reports; the action taken is AGE's overall response.
AGE posts these reports on each residence’s mass.gov page and keeps no public index, so older reports may not be listed. Massachusetts posts no complaint results for assisted living. This residence is certified for 17 units; larger residences have more records to review, so read counts with size in mind.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
