State-of-the-Art Living

When designing a new Assisted Living residence, we always ask ourselves one question: “What can we do better that will make for a more enjoyable living experience?”  It is this very mentality that has kept us in business as a family firm for over 50 years.

Technology to Benefit Residents

Like many industries, Assisted Living is at the forefront of a big push to implement new technology that will allow both staff and residents to enjoy its benefits. New technology can help staff manage on-site operations more efficiently, and allow residents to communicate with their family and the staff more easily. The Arbors at Dracut has a state-of-the-art emergency response system with wireless pendants, as well as free Wi-Fi throughout the building to allow for an even better resident experience.

The Arbors: A Family Enterprise

We do realize, however, that technology is only one of many ingredients needed to make an exceptional home for residents.  The Arbors family is unique in that we are not a big corporate entity with shareholders and a board of directors breathing down our necks, trying to tell us how to operate.  We are a small, privately-held family firm that takes pride in offering a personal touch.

Hospitality Comes First at The Arbors

Our philosophy is that senior housing is and will always be a hospitality business first and foremost, so customer service is a top priority.  We take pride in face-to-face interaction with our residents and keeping them healthy and happy with exceptional meals, activities, events, nursing service, housekeeping, maintenance, and our one-of-a-kind residences, common areas, and building amenities. Unlike many competitors with shared apartments, The Arbors at Dracut features primarily one-bedroom apartments with high ceilings, wide bathrooms, full kitchens, large trimmed windows, plenty of storage space, and a personal VTAC (Vertical Air Conditioner) unit that allows the resident to adjust the temperature for their comfort, no matter the season.

The Arbors at Dracut is loaded with common areas and amenities as well:

  • 2 full-size theater rooms with wall-mounted high-definition 75” flat-screen TVs and leather seating
  • a large pub area with granite countertops
  • a full kitchen with accompanying seating areas and a fully-stocked fridge
  • multiple card tables
  • a billiard lounge
  • a full-service salon
  • a tub room
  • an activities room where residents can participate in group exercise
  • 4-season porches
  • plenty of outdoor courtyard and patio seating

Peace of Mind

Financially speaking, we understand that the process of choosing an assisted living residence for your loved one can be stressful and overwhelming.  Which is why, unlike our competitors, we do not offer tiered pricing and, instead, have chosen to offer a one-stop-shop pricing system that we have found to be of the greatest value to potential residents and their families. You pay one price, and all of the services of the facility are included in that price. As such, there are no surprises on top of the monthly rent for services that may or may not have been administered. We like to think of this as financial peace of mind.

In Anticipation of Your Arrival

With The Arbors at Dracut, it was a long road with plenty of bumps along the way, but such is to be expected when building a 79,000-square-foot building with 79 beautiful residences and an abundance of common area space and top-of-the-line amenities.  That said, we could not be more proud of the end product and cannot wait for our future residents to call it their home.
