October 2023

My dad lived at the Birches for 3 years. He was very well cared for, made lots of friends and stayed active as long as he could. They even accommodated us bringing in his exercise bike into the activity room so he could maintain his fitness. The food was so good he gained 10lbs for the first time in his life! He recently passed away, and the VNA staff that came in treated him with the utmost care and compassion. I only rated 4/5 because the cost and lack of seat alarms which could have possibly prevented some of his falls.

The Vibrancy of Life. The Serenity of Nature. Our charitable roots began 125 years ago in 1875 with small group of 24 Manchester area women, who banded together to serve the needs of the greater community. They sought inclusivity – any woman could join the work of the Society for an annual fee of 50 cents. The Women’s Aid and Relief Society had a strong impact on the mill town of their day, and effected positive change in hundreds of lives. Their work evolved as the community did, remaining committed to housing and nursing needs, and transforming their buildings and services to match; from opening the area’s first hospital, to creating Pearl Manor. In order to provide multiple levels of care, in 1995 Pearl Manor moved from its original location to join Hillcrest Terrace on its new campus. In 2009, that entity became Manchester’s first Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), and changed their name to Birch Hill Terrace. The legacy of our work continues to evolve and grow to this day. Our latest evolution is as a proud affiliate of The RiverWoods Group. We are poised for the transformation – re-imaging our campus for a new generation of seniors – through our mission-driven staff, our focus on the creation of community and the peace of mind we give to whom we serve.…
