With professionally trained and dedicated staff that is sensitive to the residents' cultural and ever-changing health needs, Whaler's Cove provides safe and comfortable apartment-style living for people who need assistance in their daily routine or are overwhelmed with the upkeep of their own home and may want to enjoy the freedom of a worry-free lifestyle.
Whaler's Cove is proud to be the only privately owned assisted living community in New Bedford, MA. Now in its thirteenth year of operation, Whaler's Cove has been home to many senior adults who received the care they needed while maintaining their independent lifestyles.

Additionally, Whaler's Cove hosts many local musical entertainers, pet therapy, religious and educational programs, games and exercise classes here in the community routinely every day.
