Avita of Needham
About
Avita of Needham is an assisted living community in a residential Needham neighborhood that specializes in memory care for people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. The name Avita translates to “for life,” reflecting its aim of a safe, fulfilling home where caregivers treat each resident as an individual with their own wants and needs. Many residents and their families come from the Metro-Boston area, and the community serves the greater Needham area.
Avita is a Northbridge community, and daily life follows a calendar curated by a full-time program team offering failure-free, holistic activities for mind, body and spirit. Meals are homemade every day by the culinary team, professional artists lead creative sessions, and sensory-based reminiscence programs help residents connect with memories. Residents also get out into the community, such as a trip to a Dedham driving range with students from St. Sebastian’s School through its Seniors to Seniors service program.
