Whether attending a summer outing on our patio, listening to  evening musical entertainment, or enjoying a meal in our sunny dining room...you'll notice something special about the family oriented, homelike atmosphere at the The Guardian Center.

We know it's the little touches that really count in caring for your loved one.  And it's our attention to details that sets The Guardian Center apart from other facilities.

The Guardian Center was originally opened as The Lutheran Home and has been enhancing the quality of life for residents of all ages since 1961.  Located in the "City of Champions" near the Avon line, The Guardian Center reflects the warmth of a private home where residents and their families come first. The facility is fully secured, well lit, and has amble parking close to the entrances.

Meeting the Needs of Your Loved One

Each resident comes to our home with individual needs and desires.  Our goal is to meet these requirements through an effective care plan and - at the same time - build a personal relationship.  We approach this as a partnership, and strongly encourage family member participation.

Our Staff Members

Caring for the elderly takes energy, creativity, and compassion.  Our staff members are known for their exceptional loyalty and length of service to The Guardian Center.  You'll often see our caregivers reading with our residents or organizing an informal game in one of the function rooms.  Each staff member is carefully screened and selected to meet the needs of our residents at all levels.  In addition to our skilled nursing staff, we have a full-time Activity Professionals who plan social events like crafts, outings, and exercise classes.  Religious programs are also offered.

A New Beginning

Managing life's big changes can be difficult.  The Guardian Center staff is here to help each resident make a successful transition and offer you the peace of mind knowing that your loved one is comfortable, secure, and safe.

   The Guardian Center's Specialized Care Unit

Dignity, Joy In Living Individuality

Living with Alzheimer's Disease or a related disorder is challenging for the individual as well as his or her family.  

Our Specialized Care Unit exists to help those with memory loss find fulfillment in everyday living.

Our Therapeutic Approach and Creative Programming are what sets us apart.

Everyone Is An Individual

Our Therapeutic Approach is based on a simple philosophy:  respect for everyone's uniqueness.  Here residents engage in leisure pursuits from their past with compassionate caregivers.  Whether gardening, painting or doing some familiar household chores, our residents retain their dignity, joy in living and individuality.

Central to the success of this approach is a thorough assessment prior to admission.  Our discussions with the community caregivers ensure that daily routine will continue.

Familiarity is an emotional anchor throughout the disease process.

A Caring Community

A large part of what makes the Specialized Care Unit such a comfortable home is our staff.  Under an experienced Program Director and Nurse Manager, staff are carefully screened for exemplary credentials and a demonstration of sensitivity to individuals with memory loss.

All staff are trained beyond the recommendations of the Alzheimer's Association of Eastern Massachusetts.

Working at the Specialized Care Unit takes commitment.  Our families and staff form strong bonds through many programs designed to establish a trusting relationship.

Our Therapeutic Approach and Creative Programming provide a home-like atmosphere for both our residents and our families.

Residents  enjoy cooking activities, interaction with others, participating in activities programs, individual attention and visits with volunteers, friends, and family members.

Partners In Caring

Residents, families and friends are a part of the fabric of our Specialized Care Unit.  All are welcome to visit at any time and often participate in our special events and gatherings.

Our staff also provide a wide range of family services, both with individuals and as a group, such as Council and Support meetings.

Our families are looked upon as a vital link between the past and the present.  A link that is necessary in order for us to give our residents quality of life and cherished moments.

Families are our "Partners in Caring".
