Philosophy and Mission: We at DuCharme Estate have as a philosophy and mission to provide physically and cognitively impaired individuals of all ages personal health related services that are required to enjoy a happy healthy life in a home environment. Our home environment will aim to maximize independence, privacy, dignity, and empowerment as well as afford caring friendships. All necessary supports will be provided in a caring family environment to ensure safety and well being for all residents. An Assisted Living residence is a special combination of housing for the elderly and or handicapped with the continuous personalized care that they need to lead a respectful dignified life with as much independence as possible. Assisted Living is an enhanced form of congregated housing, fitting somewhere between conventional housing and 24 hours nursing care facilities. Care can consist of assistance with activities of daily living, housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, transportation as well as supervision with minor medical and or management behavioral problems such as early stages of dementia supervision is provided 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, specializing in supportive and loving care. While many models of Assisted Living residences have evolved, the original idea was for a small residential type home that would provide the supervision and care needed for individuals that were basically healthy but could no longer live safely alone at home. Individuals in their 80s occasionally experiencing minor cognitive impairment and require supervision or reminder to perform daily routines. According to Mass Alfa this group will grow from 92.000 living in Massachusetts in 1998 to 378,000 in 2050, representing a total growth of almost 30%.

Overall
It is True

DuCharme Estates does care. It is evident in the clients and families I met while visiting the facility.

I have been to many care facilities in my career as a Registered Nurse.

I visited DuCharme Estates unannounced in another capacity and I saw with my own eyes.

I truly would consider this facility for my own family member. I can easily give a 4 star rating and upon further investigation I may be able to give a 5 star rating.

They genuinely care about the clients long term care needs.
