If your loved one requires more support than traditional assisted living but less than skilled nursing, The Health Center at The Willows could be just right. We offer care in a residential community like assisted living, but as a Level IV rest home, our residents benefit from additional medical services and senior care.

Our supportive and caring team is ready to share the many ways we support our residents’ needs with a personal approach in home-like environment.
With a passion for ice hockey from a young age, my early participation in team sports instilled the values of teamwork, mentorship, and collaboration. Drawn to building relationships and being of service, I pursued Hotel and Hospitality Management by earning my degree from Southern New Hampshire University. Later transitioning to senior living from the hotel industry was a natural choice. I get to foster relationships with residents every day and look forward to nurturing these connections for years to come. I’m proud to lead a team committed to service and excellence, motivated by exceeding the needs and expectations of our residents. At the end of the day, our residents’ happiness and wellbeing is what matters most. When not at work, I love spending time with my wife and our two young sons.
When I was twelve, my Papa was a Resident with Beaumont at Northborough. I remember him telling me at his bedside, “Sophie – I think you belong working in a place just like this.” I took what he said to heart. I graduated college from UMass Amherst with my BSN and began working as a Registered Nurse. After working for SALMON as a PCA and an RN, I was offered the Clinical Director position in 2021. At The Willows at Worcester, I’ve discovered my passion for long-term care. My favorite thing about working for SALMON is that I am able to build relationships with our beloved residents every day. I consider it a privilege and joy to offer my support and knowledge to those who are in need.

We are extremely happy with the care and compassion shown at Whitney Place. The staff is very friendly and seems to have less turnover than other facilities. They have plenty of activities and they highly encourage participation. The Site Director/Manager is very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend Whitney Place to anyone looking for a top notch assisted living facility.

So impressed with the memory care unit at Beaumont in Northborough! My mom is a resident there now, and from the very first impressions of the facility and staff to the first hand witnessing of care that I have seen given to my mom, I am so happy that we were able to secure a place for her at this facility.

“The staff is very caring and helpful. They make sure my 101-year-old Mom can Zoom with us when we’re not there.”
Deb, Family Member
Whitney Place at Natick has been 5 star for the entire 4+ years that my father has lived there. Both the nursing home and the assisted living are staffed with professional, compassionate and caring caregivers. We have benefitted from the continuum of care the facility provides. We are extremely pleased with our choice of Whitney Place at Natick to provide a home for our father.

Beautiful buildings. Very clean, bright and well-maintained. The apartments are very big and spacious for one person. The big windows let a lot of light in. Lots of activities to keep the residents busy.

Great place for retirees. It’s like a small town all together. Has everything and anything you may want to do.

My mom has enjoyed her life in the Willows for almost ten years! I think that she became several years younger when she moved in. It is truly a community of friendly residents and caring staff. There are activities of all sorts, for all sorts. There a variety of trips that come up during the year and some excellent outside entertainment is provided. It is a relaxed, home town comfortable community.

My mother is having a great experience at Beaumont. The therapists have worked with her regularly, the staff has been kind, consistent (no turn over) and very caring with her. The recreation staff also keeps the activities fun and engaging. They truly know all the residents and look out for them.
