Narrative

Community Residences: Fidelity House CRC provides opportunities for small group-living in 26 community residences located throughout Lawrence, Methuen, Haverhill, Georgetown and Andover.

Homes are staffed 24 hours a day. They provide a safe and supportive setting where each person is encouraged to be as independent as possible. Our residential programs are staffed with a ratio of 1 nurse to every 9 people. Our medical homes have 1 nurse to every 3 people. We provide each person with personalized and comprehensive care. Our nurses get to know everyone. Nurses oversee all medical treatments. They make sure that daily care is tailored to each person’s health needs. Berkeley Place is one of our residences that is now an option for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who require 24 x 7 support.
