Director of Sales (The Willows at Westborough)I owe it to my grandmother for guiding me towards my passion of working in senior living. We shared a close bond, and now because of her, I am extremely passionate about integrating older adults into such a vibrant and social atmosphere. It brings me so much joy building relationships and watching new residents thrive in such a highly reputable, family-run organization.

Kerry Paulhus
Director of Health and FitnessMy passion for working with seniors started years ago when I taught a class for individuals with various health conditions. I realized I wanted to help people manage their health conditions in natural ways through exercise and wellness. I joined The Willows at Westborough as the Director of Health and Fitness after having worked as a fitness specialist for another senior living community for 13 years. I hold a bachelor’s degree in exercise physiology and am certified in a variety of health and wellness modalities. I’m grateful for the connections I’ve made with residents and staff alike. The SALMON community feels like family.

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.

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.

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.

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.
