This place, Newbury Court turned out to be greater than my expectations. With it's stuff members who are always willing to help, wonderful environment and campus that are well-kept, amazing number of well organized and interesting programs, and the last but not the least are the residents, most of whom are outgoing, interesting/intelligent and kind people. I came originally from Japan, then from Minnesota after living there for 46 years. It doesn't matter where we come from, because we are all welcome. I play violin solos in the chapel, but also in a trio and quartet groups. Less than 5 months here, I feel well adjusted and welcomed!! Yuko Ninomiya Heberlein
Patsy and I are coming up on our fourth month at Newbury Court, and the quality of life here assures us that we made the right decision. First, the very warm welcome that we have received from the other residents has been tremendous. When our apartment was ready for us to move in I sent Chris Sintros an email recommending that the entire marketing staff be nominated to receive the Edward W. Deming Award for quality and excellence. Total quality management and communication with all of the residents is a cornerstone of the organization's approach to management. We looked at quite a few assisted living centers in the greater metropolitan area and none came close to offering the quality of life you will find here. The proximity to Emerson Hospital, the quality of meals every night, underground parking for the residents are features that make this address the place to call home. We made the right choice, so will you.
We moved here in April of 2025, and were immediately welcomed by other residents with dinner invitations and offers of help; we have continued to make new friends. We have especially enjoyed the fitness center, exercise classes, and live music about 3 times per week, as well as a hand drumming class and a singing group. We really appreciate the "all-hands" meeting every Wednesday morning where staff present plans and problems, and residents can get any questions answered. The food is delicious, with several good vegetarian options each meal. Dinners are big social events here! People are always willing to accept a dinner invitation. There is a large, beautiful conservation area adjacent to Newbury Ct that lets us take a 1 hour walk through woods past the Sudbury River, along a large field where bobolinks nest in spring, and along a glacial esker. The Bruce Freeman Rail Trail is about 1/2 mile away. I look forward to participating in more classes and studios (painting, pottery, woodshop) as I am less able to do other activities outside of Newbury Court. We are not finding our 2-bedroom apartment at all restricting given all the activities and social areas elsewhere - it was nice to simplify life with downsizing.
Jane and I just moved into Newbury Court about a month ago. President and CEO Chris Sintros has set a very positive tone with the employees which radiates throughout the employees and resident population. We had investigated about a dozen other retirement communities before applying to live at Newbury Court. We decided to apply because we had friends there, they feature regularly scheduled events and have ongoing series of various programs. We also enjoy the warm and welcoming community and enjoy the top-notch food in either of the two main dining rooms, the spectacular views of the Sudbury River, the pool, and the fitness center. We love walking on the nature paths and getting a lot of information from the knowledgeable concierges. Another feature we enjoy is the indoor parking and the country markets. The maids thoroughly clean our suite every week and launder our towels and sheets.
When I arrived at Newbury Court, I was battling the challenges of Parkinson’s disease and feeling anything but my best. Fast forward two years, and I feel like a new person. This transformation is mainly due to the incredible services here, from invigorating exercise classes to personalized physical and occupational therapy. But it’s not just the therapies that have made all the difference; the warmth and support of the community have made all the difference. The incredibly friendly and stimulating atmosphere is genuinely nurturing and exciting. And let me tell you, the food is nothing short of gourmet—I'd rate it five stars! Plus, the stunning landscape that overlooks the Sudbury River provides a picturesque backdrop that enhances this wonderful experience. I can’t imagine a better place to live
