Goddard House

Goddard House is a licensed assisted living residence located in Brookline, Massachusetts. Massachusetts Assisted Living Residences are certified rather than licensed and are generally required to meet specific standards for services and accommodations.

Services include assistance with activities of daily living, medication management, meals, housekeeping, health monitoring, social activities, and access to healthcare coordination. Many residences offer tiered service levels based on individual needs.

Who We Serve: Assisted Living Residences serve adults who need varying levels of assistance with daily living but wish to maintain as much independence as possible in a supportive residential setting.

Licensing: Certified by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs.

Payment Options: In Massachusetts, Medicaid may help pay for assisted living through the PACE, Frail Elder Waiver. Eligibility is based on both financial and functional criteria. Contact Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services or visit https://www.mass.gov/topics/masshealth to learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply. Wait lists are common for waiver programs, so applying early is recommended.

Families researching assisted living options should verify the facility's current license status, review any inspection reports, and schedule a visit to assess whether the environment and services meet their loved one's needs.
