Adult Day Care Communities in Torrington, CT

"Valerie Manor is a very pretty location. It's an open area and they have great physical therapy. My father looked forward to working with the physical therapists there. There are two people per room or they might have a private room (my father was in a shared one). The CNAs were fabulous working with him and they remembered his name. The nurses were great, too. The social working staff communicated greatly with me. I am out of state and Valerie Manor, hands down, has been fabulous to work with. The front area when you walk in has a nice piano where they had a piano player that came through (he was able to participate in that). He also enjoyed eating the meals. There were very few that he didn't like, but the variety was nice and it was served warm. We paid by Medicare so that was great."

"Mother goes to Day-Break for day care, and the best thing is they provide bus service, which is a critical need for us. They do Bingo, exercise, and music. They serve lunch. They provide nursing and podiatrist services. They have a game room, a reading room, a TV room, and a big area for functions like Bingo, and any other games they might play. The staff is very helpful and nice and communicate very well with me."

"I been wanting to leave this place for a long time but realistically I I can't do it all on my own right now.If I could take Maggie and Allison with me I would do it .They both are Ambassadors here at Abbott. These girls work hard and they do alot for everybody. Allison always makes sure my hair is straight. Maggie got my computer working twice already. My aide Arlene be hooking me up too. I LOVE the girls here They are all hard works .Deep inside I still want to go but leave my Ambassadors and my CNAs .I'm going to just chill cause they got me and I'm good here."

"My father was at an assisted living facility, but we kept him going at the day program of the Alzheimer’s Resource Center because it was much higher quality. When they did have an apartment open, we moved him from next door to there. Everyday they have two forms of exercise options: either like a zumba or taichi or yoga. They try to incorporate different types so it’s just not the same physical activity each day; they do one in the morning and one in the afternoon. They have art classes, do day trips at least once a week to either local farms, museums, or concerts; they do a lot of quality out programs. They do a lot of music programs. They have an in-house music therapist, and they have a travelling music therapist that even in the evening might go. There are only thirteen apartments, so they encourage everyone to go; they call it their "family time." They have a pianist play in that room and do the sing-alongs. They also have skilled nursing so if someone progresses they don’t need to actually to look for a separate facility which is a nice plus. Another interesting thing is that the assisted living is self pay, but the skilled nursing can be self pay or accept state funding, so even if somebody runs out of their fund, they could still stay there without having to go to a different facility. It also has several different types of support groups that are open to both the community and to people in the community who are not in their programs. I really like this place; I think they're the best one in our area. "

"This faculty is top notch!! My mother in law has been going to the senior day program for a couple years now and the staff have been wonderful with her. She suffers from dementia and has done well here! Candace and Jennifer and Valerie are warm, friendly and compassionate!! I feel my mother in law is safe and in good hands! They offer me suggestions and always keep me informed of her day. They offer many fun activities , meals and my mother in law really enjoys the salsa dancing! Great place and great staff!!!"

"My mom is in rehab at St Mary Home. The facility is very clean. The people are friendly. If my mom needs assistance, they are always there, so I have no complaints. My mom is in a private room that's right next to another room, but they share the same bathroom. They have a room where they play music, and somebody plays the piano. My mother has physical therapy every day. She has a walker, but she's beginning to walk better. My mom loves the meals. She has insurance, so it was covered."
