Home Care In Chestnut Hill, MA

Home Care Chestnut Hill, MA

They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.

However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Longyear Museum gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.

Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Chestnut Hill, MA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

The Always Best Care Difference

Since 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they get older. We are proud to have helped more than 25,000 seniors maintain higher levels of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of in-home care available so that they may live happily and independently.

Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs. That way, they may provide care accordingly without compromising their wellbeing.

The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life. Whether you are an aging adult that can't quite keep up with life's daily tasks or the child of a senior who needs regular in-home services, Always Best Care is here to help.

“Finding a place that will take care of your family members can be overwhelming, so I was relieved to find Always. They are flexible and personable and focus on what’s most important when caring for your loved one. Beth and Kathy were always there when I needed something. Rishi, my father’s main caregiver, knew exactly how to handle the challenges of caring for a man who was reluctant about having care in the home. I am so thankful for their support!”

“Dave and his staff at Always Best Care truly helped us when my mom was returning home with her hip replacement. Dave came to my mom's home to assess it and gave us recommendations on how to make her home safer. He made me feel so much better about having a caregiver staying with my mom. We also had a discussion on what type of caregiver my mom needed. My mom wanted to meet her caregiver ahead of time and ABC made it happen. It was a great experience, especially knowing my mom was never alone and she had companionship. Thank you for all your help!!”

“We were referred to Always Best Care by the social workers at MT Auburn Hospital. We were worried because we had heard of the senior caregiver shortage. There are no words for how much peace of mind the two amazing caregivers provide our family in caring for our elderly father. They are both completely warm, dependable, professional, kind and caring. I have heard from friends that it doesn't always go like that, so we are most grateful! In six months, both of my dad's caregivers have come to know my father as a person and genuinely care for his wellbeing. The support they provide is immeasurable.”

“It has been about 6 months since Toni and Angel became caregivers for our father Matthew D. We wanted to let you know how incredible they both have been and how important they are to our family. Both Toni and Angel are so dependable, capable, professional and caring. We have heard from friends that it doesn't always go like that, so we know we lucked out not with one but both women. Additionally, we have heard the numerous news reports of the healthcare shortage and are so grateful that your agency could place caregivers with us so quickly when we first contacted you last summer. There are no words for the peace of mind these two amazing women provide for us, and we give daily thanks you matched them with our dad. Thank you and Happy Holidays to you.”

“David was recommended to me by two different social workers as someone to help us find the right assisted living facility for my mom. He walked me and my sister and partner through the process of narrowing down the choices and selecting the best place. He set up some tours for us and accompanied us on others, putting us in contact with the Executive Directors rather than just the marketers. His advice was unfailingly on target. The placed I wanted to see that he didn't recommend were absolutely wrong for my mom, and the one he suggested as the best fit absolutely was the right one. She ended up there for a respite stay and loves it, but has decided she wants to give in-home care a try before committing to the assisted living option. Luckily, David also has an in-home care business that can help us out with that, too! I feel so lucky to have found a trustworthy person to help me navigate the dizzying options for senior care for my mom.”

“Always Best Care is one of the best companies I have ever worked for! Truly, it's been such a breath of fresh air. The way that David, my co-workers, and everyone involved is so dedicated to the well-being of our clients and caregivers is like nothing I have seen. But also the way we are cared for as employees...everyone genuinely cares and wants to see the best for their co-workers, and for our clients as well! David sets an amazing example for the team by going above and beyond for our clients and caregivers, making it only natural to follow in his footsteps and do our very best as well. We've got a rock solid team of people who are well equipped in each area they serve our clients in, and it's really cool to see everyone working with such passion and compassion. This business is all about relationships and cultivating them well, and I can truly say I'm proud to be part of a team that does this so well. It's a healthy and well-run company with great communication and flexibility. It's hands down one of the best places I have every worked! I heard a phrase once that "people may not remember what you've done for them, but they will always remember how you made them feel." Always Best Care does both--acts of kind service, and leaving a lasting impression on everyone we get to interact with. I would recommend Always Best Care a thousand times over!!”

“Despite residing in a well-respected retirement community my parents still needed a little assistance in making it a home. The professionals from Always Best Care were like an All-Star team of senior care help, they stepped in and assessed everything from my parents' major concerns down to the subtle little differences that we probably would never have noticed, making what had been a stressful situation immediately more manageable. My family sleeps easier knowing that my parents have settled in, and without the assistance of Always Best Care that was simply not the case. Their experience is only surpassed by their attentiveness and kindness to the needs of the people they are working with.”

“I have worked for Always Best Care Senior Services for 5 years, mostly as an in-home health care provider for elderly and disabled clients. As an employee of ABC, I have also cared for clients on a one- on- one basis who are in Assisted Living Facilities and Skilled Nursing Facilities. I enjoy my work and my clients. The culture of ABC is that every client is treated as an individual with personal needs and feelings rather than as a case number or diagnosis. ABC’s approach to clients is mirrored in how they treat caregivers. Consideration of the caregiver’s persona is matched with those of the client. The needs of the client are outlined to ensure the caregiver services provided are a comfortable match. I always feel respected, appreciated, and valued in my role and I equally feel the same consideration is provided to my clients. It is a professional, diverse and overall warm working environment. There is an open-door policy for both client and caregiver where open and constant dialogue and feedback is welcome and responded to in real-time. I would recommend working at Always Best Care to anyone in this profession or anyone considering this profession. Annette Vincent”

David Robinson, the owner, came out right away to assess my needs--up to the point of picking me up at the hospital after surgery with the caregiver. I just had my second knee done and there were some complications this time, but the team at Always Best Care was on it, sending two alternating caregivers and taking me to follow up appointments. I can't say enough about their compassion, expertise, and cheerfulness. Highly recommend them!”

“Dear Kathy: I am writing to express my deepest appreciation to everyone at Always Best Care who cared for my mother, Noriko Scheuer, during her final months. She had been diagnosed with lung cancer in late 2018, started on hospice care in mid-June 2019, and began with your caregivers in late August. She dies on November 21 at the age of 95-1/2, peacefully and pain-free thanks to the excellent care she received. The team who provided round-the-clock services combined a high level of professionalism with caring personal connection. Marie Jean, Sophie Kayinza, Catherine Nakyobe, Claire Nalwoga, Joan Nampijja, Husa Wright, Nadine Wumba, and for a while Resty Namaalwa were all kind, attentive, and directive with my mother's condition. I also enjoyed speaking with them and learning about their life stories. There women are impressive examples of immigration, dedication and hard work. Sophie is to be commended for her care during my mother's last hours and her kindness to me when I arrived on the scene. A huge thanks to you as well for "being on the casE" in such a responsive and caring manner. I recall that when I first called tou in late August after my mother fell, you were able to visit Boylston Place that same day to make an assessment so that care could being the folliwing day/ And on several other occasions you were very resourceful in responding to last-minute cancellations and changes in care protocols. I believe that under the care of this wonderful team, and their coordination with the Boylston Place and hospice teams, my mother was able to spend her final months comfortably and peacefully, accepting with grace her imminent passing.”

“I can't say enough positive things about Always Best Care, the owner David, the RN Beth and the wonderful home health aides who have been helping my grandparents over the last number of weeks. My grandmother came home from rehab after surviving COVID and was still very weak and on oxygen. David was phenomenally responsive to my initial email (at 9:00 at night!) and arranged to come to the house on a weekend to meet my parents and get them started. The nurse, Beth, accompanied both home health aides on their first day to make sure they were on-boarded with exactly what we needed. She listened to us, she remembered every thing we told her, and she volunteered to pick up meds for us at the pharmacy. The aides (Susan and Josephine) have been lovely - attentive, thoughtful, gentle, observant, and have helped with everything from bathing to laundry to lunches and dishes to sorting endless piles of paper for filing. I'm so grateful to all of them for easing my mom's transition home and taking the burden off my grandfather (who's 86). We may not need them much longer, but they have been outstanding.”

“I may be over 70 years old, but I still like to go out and about and I consider myself independent. Several years before I retired, I made a conscious decision to stop driving my car and to rely on public transportation, whether by the subway and bus system or by taking cabs. I didn’t plan on changing my life. And then, COVID-19 made its lethal appearance around the world. After a couple months of quarantine everywhere, I realized I no longer felt comfortable using public transportation. “When was the last time ‘they’ wiped down the handholds on this bus?” And “Who sat in this cab before me?” I asked myself. I continued to worry. I even read through my stash of professional business cards, hoping for inspiration. I found a card for David Robinson who, in the past, had provided me with specialized transportation. I gave him a call and he introduced me to his company, Always Best Care. With the assistance of Always Best Care associates, I’ve been able to keep appointments and selectively shop. I have maintained a large degree of independence in this viral climate. All the Best Care companions I’ve met are cheerful, prompt, and pleasant. They are, at the same time, both professional and friendly. I would recommend Always Best Care to anyone needing care, companionship, or accompanied transportation in the greater Boston area.”

“Dear Friend, I'm sharing this reference in hopes that it provides comfort to other families who seek caring, attentive, loving and flexible care for their aging loved ones. My mother/family has been one of your clients for a number of years and I know ABC's values and capabilities extremely well. For families who are navigating the journey of elder care, who are facing uncertainty and who are looking for a trusted, reliable team who will care for clients like family (if not better), there is no better team than the wonderful folks at ABC. We've been working with David, Kathy and the team for several years and they have exceeded our hopes. Sure, they are on time, professional, safe and courteous. Even more, they are thoughtful, kind and caring. True problem solvers, they provide comfort knowing that my mom is in terrific hands. Even more, they anticipate challenges and solve problems before they are needed. I'm sharing this info because I know how daunting and, indeed, paralyzing, searching for an agency can be. From the first call, ABC did it right. They listened rather than sold. They personalized it, so we found the right care for my mother. They did nothing less than treat my mom the way they would want their own mother's to be treated. I've learned a lot during the process and one of the most important things I learned is: trust ABC. Best wishes, Zack”

“When I reached out to Always Best Care as a client with an elder dad to care for, I didn't always exactly know the type or duration of services needed. Someone was always available to talk to and work with me toward an appropriate, balanced solution. They consistently delivered their services with respect and honesty, whether routine or when assisting with challenging situations. Kathy and Beth participated in a collaborative effort with me for the best possible outcome. I enjoyed working with them and their excellent staff of caregivers, and my dad benefitted from the positive dynamic beyond expectations. Thank you to all at ABC.”

“I can't say enough positive things about Always Best Care, the owner David, the RN Beth and the wonderful home health aides who have been helping my parents over the last number of weeks. My mom came home from rehab after surviving COVID and was still very weak and on oxygen. David was phenomenally responsive to my initial email (at 9:00 at night!) and arranged to come to the house on a weekend to meet my parents and get them started. The nurse, Beth, accompanied both home health aides on their first day to make sure they were on-boarded with exactly what we needed. She listened to us, she remembered every thing we told her, and she volunteered to pick up meds for us at the pharmacy. The aides (Susan and Josephine) have been lovely - attentive, thoughtful, gentle, observant, and have helped with everything from bathing to laundry to lunches and dishes to sorting endless piles of paper for filing. I'm so grateful to all of them for easing my mom's transition home and taking the burden off my dad (who's 86). We may not need them much longer, but they were lifesavers.”

From her skilled and patient direct care… to her very perceptive and objective take on many aspects of my mom’s situation, including our family’s complex dynamics… to spot-on referrals for additional support and services… I couldn’t have come through without her. Melanie’s warm, outgoing style informed all her efforts and immediately put everyone at ease, most importantly my mother. She became a strong advocate and backbone for both me and Mom, and a skilled negotiator when it came to dealing with conflicting family influences. Her direct, no-nonsense approach was perfectly balanced by sensitivity and diplomacy. In many respects, I consider Melanie an integral part of the family who shared my goal of providing nothing but optimal care and support for Mom. I highly recommend her and Always Best Care, without hesitation.”

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Chestnut Hill, MA?

lm-check

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

lm-check

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Home Care Chestnut Hill, MA
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local The Capital Grille or visit Timothy Hoxie House, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?

A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.

With the help of elderly care in Chestnut Hill, MA, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.

Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.

In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

 Elderly Care Chestnut Hill, MA

Affordable Care

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your MA's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.
 Senior Care Chestnut Hill, MA

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Chestnut Hill, MA understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

Assisted Living Referral Services

While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.

Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.


Respite Care Chestnut Hill, MA

At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.

Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Chestnut Hill, MA

At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.

Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.

Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:

  • The Residence at Boylston Place
  • Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle
  • Goddard House Assisted Living
  • Nursing Home Abuse Center
  • Adelaide of Newton Centre - Memory Care
  • Waterstone at the Circle
Home Care Chestnut Hill, MA

For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.

On Rep. McGovern's farm tour, focus turns to bringing younger farmers into the fold

SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass. - At Chestnut Hill Farm in Southborough, one of the last working farms in the town, 29 year-old Erin Espinosa is an outlier - the average age of a farmer in the United States is 57.

What You Need To Know

“I think there's a trend of farmers starting this work and then realizing it's not very financially feasible, and it's also hard on the body,” Espinosa said. “You have to sacrifice a lot in your life to respond to the needs of the land.”

Ten years into her career, Espinosa has been able to stay afloat financially by living with her parents for a few years after college and doing grant writing for a nonprofit. Now a field crop manager for Chestnut Hill Farm, Espinosa said the trials she faced early in her farming career aren’t unique - many farmers of her generation can’t count on field work alone to make a living.

Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., met with Espinosa on Wednesday as part of his annual farm tour, and said the only way to bring more young farmers like her into the fold is by paying them a livable wage and providing the benefits they deserve.

“Farmers work awfully hard,” McGovern said. “And the financial reward for all their work is, quite frankly, minimal. They can't afford to lose a season of growing or be adversely impacted by climate change or natural disasters. What we learned this morning and what we've learned when we were touring farms in western Massachusetts is that farmers need our help.”

As McGovern put it, “Food is life, and we can’t take it for granted.”

A good example of the vital role small farms like Chestnut Hill play in the community came when Espinosa recently got a call from a farmer, who said 70 immigrant families who relocated to the area needed cooked meals and fresh vegetables.

“I got that call at 1 p.m. on Monday, and within an hour I was able to make sure that we had hundreds of pounds of food going out into the community, feeding those families that need it,” Espinosa said. “We were only able to do that because we already had these relationships built, and we're small enough that logistics can happen really fast.”

As lawmakers in Washington negotiate the 2023 Farm Bill, McGovern wants to focus on strategies to get more young farmers like Espinosa out in the field, ensuring farms like Chestnut Hill can continue to pick up the phone for their communities.

“I think for too long, we've taken our farms and our farmers for granted,” McGovern said. “We have to change that, and what's exciting about talking to some of the new farmers that I'm meeting is they get it. They understand the importance of being good stewards of the land.”

After his visit at Chestnut Hill Farm, McGovern also stopped by Long Life Farm in Upton, Outpost Farm in Ashton and Whittier Farms in Sutton.

A long-planned renovation at The Street Chestnut Hill will finally come to fruition later this spring.

WS Development announced Monday that the developer has locked nearly 25 retailers and restaurants at 27 Boylston St., a long-vacant structure that formerly housed an AMC theater. It marks a major move for the building at the center of the longstanding mall, comprising over 40 storefronts along Route 9 near the Newton-Brookline line.

On the docket is a collection of national brands such as Reformation, Skin Laundry, Alo Yoga, and Marine Layer, as well as solidcore, a pilates studio, and SweatHouz — a sauna and cold plunge brand.

A handful of local businesses are also on the list: Pink Carrot, a healthy fast-casual spot in the North End, is expanding into The Street with a 2,000-square-foot storefront. Owner JoAnn Bertolino said the location will offer smoothie bowls and power toast in “more of a neighborhood, rather than right in the city.”

And Ted Winston of Winston Flowers said his business’ shift to The Street is a homecoming of sorts.

“We’re going back to our roots,” he said. The Newton outpost of the 70-year-old florist initially lived in a mall on Route 9 before moving to a standalone store on Florence Street in 2000. Now the Winston’s collection of bouquets, orchids, and candles will be in the heart of a bustling shopping center, with additional areas for monthly classes and consultations for weddings and private events.

Todd Norley, vice president of leasing at WS Development, called the 90,000-square-foot project — a combination of shopping, offices, and community gathering spaces — an anomaly in our time. Malls have been in decline for the past decade as consumers shift to online retail, and “there’s not much new construction at this scale taking place right now” because of the high cost of building materials,” Norley said. “But the community in Chestnut Hill is already super engaged, and we’ve always had the desire to expand our presence here.”

In a release, WS executives said the renovation will pay homage to the existing building. “The curvature and brickwork … will remain while the building is reimagined with masonry, metal, wood, enlarged windows, and lush greenery crawling up, around, and above,” it read.

An elevated walkway will wrap around three sides of the building and connect to a 64-foot bridge and tree canopy that leads to the property’s southern side.

Health care with a twist

Two new Back Bay businesses are approaching health care a tad untraditionally. Five Journeys claims to meld primary care with functional medicine, especially for those who are getting up there in age. And Human Powered Health is a high-tech running performance lab.

Here is what that means, according to both business’ founders.

Doctors Wendie Trubow and Edward Levitan at Five Journeys said the physicians at their 2,600-square-foot facility evaluate patients’ health through five categories: physical, chemical, emotional, social, and spiritual. They provide everything from a routine checkup to wellness treatments — think vitamin boosters, brain taps, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and performance coaching with TB12-trained coaches — at one location.

The goal? “To make you feel freaking amazing at any age,” Trubow said.

The membership-based medical practice charges between $129 and $699 a month. But the benefit, Levitan said, is in receiving a comprehensive look at your well-being.

“Some people just need a doctor to look into their biochemistry,” he said. “They need someone to treat their Lyme Disease or mold. Some people just don’t know what they’re waking up for — they’re 80 years old,” he said. “We’re looking to connect the whole person — not just exercise, or meditation, or any one thing.”

A few blocks away, Human Powered Health is looking to get a big-picture view of everyone too, “whether they’re looking to compete or get off their couch,” said chief executive Dan Cohen. But the Back Bay location — located above the running store Tracksmith Trackhouse — is focused on runners and endurance athletes. It offers treadmill and bike-based assessments of customers’ gait, hydration, resting metabolic rates, and even lactate blood testing. Analyzing those metrics, Cohen added, can help people “understand how efficient an individual is” and “how well they move through space.”

HPH also partnered with the multidisciplinary practice Wellness in Motion on Newbury. The pair plans to open another 8,000-square-foot facility in Wellesley this spring.

Creating signature scents

Newbury Street will be graced with a “custom fragrance destination” next month. Olfactory NYC is upgrading its Seaport pop-up with a 1,100-square-foot storefront between Clarendon and Dartmouth. (The Seaport outpost at 85G Seaport Blvd will close in April.)

The spot will give customers the opportunity to concoct their own fragrant creations using oils on hand at the store, said chief executive JJ Vittoria. Also for sale? Travel sprays, lotions, and soy-blend candles.

What Olfactory hopes to do is make the “sense of luxury more fun and accessible,” Vittoria said. “The price point has made the fragrance experience more senile, and department stores tend to have a lot of celebrity imagery. That’s not what fragrances are. It’s an art form.”

Cookies for all

Chip City Cookies, the New York-based purveyor of jumbo-sized cookies, opened in Arsenal Yards in Watertown earlier this month.

The outpost boasts 5.5 ounce desserts that are “crispy on the outside, and gooey on the inside,” said cofounder Teddy Gailas. It rotates its menu weekly between 40-some classic and seasonal flavors, but don’t worry, there are always chocolate chip cookies. A second location of Chip Cookies in Boston will open early next year.

Boston-area dentist who ripped down posters of Israeli hostages has been fired: ‘It’s appalling. It’s cold-hearted. It’s evil’

A woman who was caught on camera ripping down posters of Israeli hostages at a Chestnut Hill shopping center has been fired from a local dental office.

The video of the Boston-area dentist went viral over the weekend after she was seen at The Street shopping area taking down posters of Israelis, who have been kidnapped by Hamas terrorists.

After the organization StopAntisemitism identified the woman as a local endodontist, the group reached out to her employer and she was fired soon after.

“It’s appalling. It’s cold-hearted. It’s evil,” StopAntisemitism Executive Director Liora Rez told the Herald on Monday.

“I’m not sure what sort of depraved human being would look at posters of kidnapped babies and think the appropriate course of action would be to tear them down,” Rez added. “Tearing down any attempt to bring awareness to that campaign is very frightening.”

The Herald reached out to the Boston-area dentist, but she could not be immediately reached for comment.

Since Hamas’ terrorist attacks on Oct. 7, groups have been putting up posters of the hundreds of Israelis who were kidnapped to Gaza.

Many people across the U.S. have been caught on camera removing the posters.

In the video of the woman in Chestnut Hill, a person can be heard saying, “Why is she taking the pictures off?”

“That is so sad. That is so sad,” the person in the video adds.

After the video went viral over the weekend, the woman was fired from Nevins Dental Center.

“Acts of terror against the State of Israel and innocent people must be condemned,” owner Marc Nevins said in a statement. “Acts of antisemitism, racism, and bigotry that assault members of our community based on their heritage or beliefs cannot be tolerated and must equally be condemned. No healthcare service institution or clinical practice should permit activities that by word or deed create the deep hurt that threatens our community and our healing.

“It has come to our attention that a clinician working as an adjunct member of our clinical practice has been accused of taking actions that are contrary to our community standards and to the basic values of my clinical practice,” Nevins added. “After having reviewed the facts and circumstances, the individual no longer works with our practice effective October 21, 2023.”

The woman’s LinkedIn page was down on Monday, and past Facebook posts connecting her to Nevins Dental Center had been removed.

“These are profoundly troubling times causing neighbors to question neighbors and impacted communities to scream for justice,” Nevins said. “Our health care center will not employ anyone who has been found to further hate or discrimination. Our utmost concern is for the protection of our patients, our community and our employees.”

The woman in the past had been connected with Central Dental Associates in Norwood. She’s no longer affiliated with that practice, a representative for Central Dental Associates told the Herald.

Are you looking for a restaurant experience that makes you feel like you're on a boat? You’re actually on land, but you get an incredible water view as you dine boats are sailing by and the sun is setting. If so, you don’t have to go beyond the Massachusetts border or even to Cape Cod or Boston.

Wicked Local recently visited five restaurants where you not only get a great water view, but a delicious meal, too.

Here’s a mix of elegant and casual restaurants offering water views of the Essex River, Merrimack River, Atlantic Ocean, Hingham Marina and Chestnut Hill Reservoir.

Limani, Chestnut Hill

Limani, an upscale Mediterranean seafood restaurant that's owned by New York restaurateur Christos Spyropoulos, opened last summer at The Street in Chestnut Hill. It's one of two locations in Massachusetts for the company, which also owns and operates five restaurants in New York and recently opened another in Charlotte, North Carolina. Limani Grille in the Seaport opened in June.

The Chestnut Hill restaurant has two levels. The main level is on the second floor (with elevator access) and overlooks Hammond Pond. There are also three areas in the restaurant that can be reserved for private events.

Open daily from noon to 10 p.m., Limani's menu offers salmon souvlaki, lamb chops, octopus and a variety of fresh caught seafood such as branzino, sole and swordfish.

A must-try appetizer is the Limani chips, paper-thin cut zucchini and eggplant served with lightly fried kefalograviera cheese and tzatziki.

Shea’s Riverside Restaurant and Bar, Essex

Beverly resident Alice Remare has enjoyed dining at Shea’s Riverside Restaurant and Bar on Main Street in Essex. It offers a casual, kid-friendly atmosphere, a wall of picture windows overlooking the Essex River and two outdoor decks where you can see the sun set each night as boats and kayaks pass by. It also has a dock for those who want to take a break from boating to grab a bite.

The menu includes a variety of generously portioned local seafood appetizers such as fried clams and local steamers, chilled oysters, shrimp, lobster tail and snow crab legs from the raw bar. Entrees include swordfish kabobs, Thai coconut curry salmon, scallops in a tomato-vodka cream sauce and pan seared halibut. For the meat-lovers, there is rack of lamb, chicken, New York sirloin and filet mignon.

There is also an extensive selection of gluten-free options as the owner, Dave Brown, has celiac disease.

“I love it here. It’s peaceful. I love the food and the people. They are so nice in here. It’s a joy to be here,” Remare said during a recent visit with her daughter, Lisa Olson. They each ordered the lobster roll, which comes with a generous portion of lobster meat in a toasted brioche bun with a touch of mayonnaise, crisp celery and green leaf lettuce.

Shea's Riverside is open daily for dinner and also open for lunch on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Reservations are recommended.

Michael's Harborside, Newburyport

Another kid-friendly, casual dining option with views of boats docked on the Merrimack River, Plum Island and the sunset is Michael’s Harborside in Newburyport. When the weather is nice, there are two outdoor decks, one on the main floor and another on the second level. There is also a patio with a bar and high-tops. For diners who prefer air conditioning, the view can also be seen from any table indoors.

All of Michael’s fried food is 100% gluten-free. It's best known for fresh seafood and steak. Popular menu items are lobster roll, lobster pie, baked haddock, chowder and Michael’s famous 10 oz. burger, a blend of chuck, brisket and sirloin.

The atmosphere at Michael’s Harborside is lively, the wait staff is friendly and the business is open daily for lunch and dinner.

Alma Nove, Hingham

Celebrity brothers Mark and Donnie Wahlberg co-own Alma Nove, 22 Shipyard Drive, Hingham, founded by their brother, executive chef Paul Wahlberg. This upscale restaurant is named in honor of their mother, Alma, and her nine (nove) children.

In 2022, Alma Nove was named one of the top 100 outdoor dining restaurants in the country by Open Table.

Located in the Hingham Shipyard, the restaurant overlooks the Hingham Marina with views of the sunset. You can see the view from the glass windows anywhere indoors. There is a patio outdoors with a firepit where diners can have cocktails or small bites.

The Italian- and Mediterranean-inspired menu features homemade specialty pastas and seafood and chops prepared on a wood burning grill. A popular appetizer is Italian beef, and pork meatballs and Bolognese is a favorite entrée.

All desserts are made in house by pastry chef Crystal Tempesta, such as Affogato (Bailey’s Irish cream gelato, chocolate chip biscotti, espresso) and s’mores layer cake (chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, marshmallow, graham cracker).

Alma Nove is open daily for lunch and dinner. Reservations are highly recommended.

1606 Restaurant and Oyster Bar, Gloucester

Located on the lobby level of the Beauport Hotel on Commercial Street, 1606 Restaurant and Oyster Bar offers views of Gloucester Harbor and the Atlantic beyond with floor-to-ceiling windows, an oval-shaped oyster bar, oceanfront deck, warm decor with seaside vistas and a relaxed, upscale atmosphere.

Open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, the menu features fresh local seafood and modern New England cuisine such as seared sea scallops, sesame crusted tuna, baked haddock casserole and Australian Wagyu Tomahawk prepared by award-winning chef Jon McKechnie and his culinary team.

The restaurant's "1606" name is in honor of the year French explorer Samuel Chaplain sailed into Gloucester Harbor and declared it, "le beau port," which means, "the beautiful harbor."

Favorites at the raw bar include seafood towers, little neck clams, jumbo shrimp and New England lobster tail.

Limani Grille

Last year, New York City-based Limani brought its first location to the Boston area at The Street in Chestnut Hill. This summer, the Mediterranean-themed restaurant opens its second location closer to home, this time replacing the old Wagamama in the Seaport (but the modern face-lift and elegant, muted color palette would keep you guessing otherwise). Limani is celebrated for its interpretations of Cyprus and Greek staples, flying in seafood from the coastal shores of those locales to ensure the freshest connection to the Mediterranean lifestyle. The menu is regularly updated, and Greek spreads like tzatziki, tirokafteri, and skordalia are staples as well as octopus and lamb, prepared in different ways. Their elevated dishes are always created with specialty products like cold-pressed olive oil from the Peloponnese and small-batch items like capers from Santorini and saffron from Kozani, plus local organic vegetables.

SAVR

Tucked into the same building as the highly luxurious St. Regis Residences along the Seaport waterfront, this spirited bistro is set to become the area’s trendiest new spot. The swanky two-story space seats up to 300 diners, providing them with unparalleled views of the harbor. There will also be seasonal waterfront deck seating, a first-floor grand central bar, and a more intimate second-floor bar. There will be a little something for everyone on the menu from Executive Chef Danny Levesque, formerly of Tavistock Restaurant Group and Davio’s Northern Italian. The emphasis is on shared appetizers and more sizable entrees inspired by comfort classics, like prime rib and other premium cuts of steak, as well as fresh catch of the day and lemon ricotta ravioli. Local hospitality expert and managing partner David Doyle describes the space as a world-class experience that’s at the same time friendly and welcoming. “SAVR is the culmination of my career in hospitality,” he said.

Stratus

Debuting as New England’s highest outdoor rooftop deck, there’s no doubt Stratus is going to be a summer hotspot. Perched at the top of View Boston’s Cloud Terrace (floor 51), visitors can dine and imbibe at this 360-degree open air roof deck. Since Boston does have mercurial weather, there’s an indoor cocktail lounge in addition to the exterior space, which will keep the sky-high bar in season all year long. The menu consists of small, shareable plates — like a balsamic vinegar dipping flight — which pair nicely with craft cocktails that are labeled as “twists on iconic staples.” There’s the View Boston Ward 8, a take on the rye-based drink with lemon juice that was created in the eponymous Boston ward in the late 1800s; instead of the traditional orange juice, this rendition uses pomegranate. There’s also the Tokyo & Tonic, with whiskey, botanicals, plum, and tonic as well as classics like red and white sangria and mimosas. Beer fanatics will appreciate the specialized craft menu and unique cans, inclusive of hard kombucha.

The Beacon

Located on The City level of View Boston (Floor 50), this new restaurant above the clouds offers a family-friendly menu curated by Chef MJ Avalos. The bistro-style venue is open from 11am to 9pm with an all day menu featuring unique bar bites like chocolate dipped bacon strips and beef jerky, appetizers like lobster roll crepes and Celtic mussels, as well as a selection of salads, hearty mains and desserts. Known for her “cooking in color concepts,” where she mixes in fruits and vegetables to compliment a variety of dishes, Chef Avalos created the entirely new menu, including signature dishes, and cocktails, drawing inspiration from the region’s four seasons. Diners can choose from a selection of reservations, including an “elevated lunch” entry ticket, or a stool at the 22-seat window-facing bar. There will also be a private dining space called Studio 50 for groups to book, which includes unparalleled access and entry to this new space.

Umbria

Revered in the ’90s for its five-story concept featuring an Italian restaurant, lounges, and nightlife, Umbria returns to the North End in the former Ristorante Fiore space. The contemporary version will still be multiple stories, but a condensed offering from its original acclaim to keep the experience more intimate. Owned by Frank DePasquale and the DePasquale family, there will be two floors of dining, as well as a rooftop lounge in the style of a Miami roof deck, which is one of the few rooftop eateries in the North End. The Italian menu focuses on the rustic cuisine of the region of Umbria — which will be accented by the interiors reflecting an old world Tuscan Villa — and will also include a steakhouse for a wide selection of Italian-style cuts.
