My mother came for rehabilitation for two weeks..We wanted THANKS all for taking care of our mom..Nurses, CNA, Occupation Therapy, all those in the 2 floor(east) staff's. They're all very friendly and helpful. But we're very disappointed of the physical therapy, our mom says the PT came only once during her stayed at benjamin healthcare center. We see no improvement in her mobility. We give 3 stars for wonderful care from the staff's but not a place for someone who need short term care rehabilitation and and administration departments...social services, nursing director,caseworker, I had called several times...never call me back...never give me clear answer to my questions, unprofessional. All we wanted for our mother to recovering. So,we discharge her...because she was unhappy and we was very unhappy and disappointed..feeling she will do much better in home care with Pt/Ot and family members who will support her.

Shoutout! To the Benjamin Healthcare Center, the current administration team, and all employees of the facility. Their unwavering commitment to maintaining the center’s operations has been truly commendable. The facility’s exceptional staff and heartwarming atmosphere were evident during a recent open house, where families overwhelmingly outnumbered vendors and employees. The food was flavorful, tasty and delicious! The testimonies from the families were heartwarming and served as a testament to the effective leadership implemented by the administration team. The Benjamin Healthcare Center holds a special place in our community. It is essential that we continue to support its employees, residents, and families. By doing so, we can help elevate this facility to new heights and ensure its continued success.

The scent was quite delightful despite what everyone else is saying. Of all the nursing homes I've been to, the staff has by far been the kindest here! As someone born in raised in the South, I'm used to the hospitality over there. This places makes me feel right at home! My grandchildren were happy to visit and see how bright I was! Thank You Edgar Benjamin Healthcare Center!

They take very good care of my mom, she likes it there and has made new friends. This is one of the only long term care facilities in Boston and the staff have been instrumental in making sure the elders are cared for at all times.

When I last visited my mom on the 4th of July at the Benjamin Healthcare Facility. She was telling me how nice all the staff were and trying to introduce me to everyone. Since, the new management has taken over you can see the difference. Staff had brought her lunch, removed the tray afterwards and cleaned up. She was given a nice ice cream treat which she loved and checked on her as well to see if she needed assistance; the response was appropriate and timely. The lobby, has been updated with staff being present and helping you to gain access. The room bathroom was clean with no smells. In addition, the nursing staff always calls with an update on her progress. Also, has her prepared when we request to take her out for a Holiday Day Celebration with our family. Although, the facility went through a serious fight with the previous management. We were able to have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day celebration in the lower level room at the Benjamin. I’m pleased and would recommend the Benjamin.
