Assisted Living Communities in Southbury, CT

"Old Glory Days was wonderful. It was beautiful. It was very clean. I liked it because it was open. I didn't like it because there were a lot of stairs. They were very expensive, too. The staff was very down-to-earth and neat. It's a converted old house. I wouldn't recommend it unless you lived in town, and if you had a lot of money and you were by yourself. I don't think it was good for a couple. It was very well put together. It was nicely painted inside."

"Bethel Health Care is a very nice facility, it is clean and the people who are there seem very well cared for. My grandmother has been there for six months now and has had no complaints other then the food, but she is an amazing cook and is never happy with any one elses food, including her own daughters. The staff is well trained, polite, caring and very involved in all the goings on at the facility. The facility offers free wifi and cable in each room and we also have the option for expanded cable and a box if we choose to pay for it. Over all Bethel is a very nice place and I would recamend it to any one looking for an assisted living facility "

"Just Like Home was a godsend for my family. We were searching for respite care for my Mom as she is my Dad’s sole caregiver and we found the Dogwood Home which is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood in Shelton, CT. It is a gorgeous, fully equipped home for 6 residents with every possible amenity, and totally handicapped accessible. He had his own private room w/ private bath, he was served delicious, homemade meals everyday and we were able to join him whenever we wanted. They follow very strict Covid guidelines which gave us peace of mind and the care and attention he received went above and beyond our expectations. If you are looking for a small, loving, family like environment with top notch care, this is the place you have been looking for !"

"Spring Village of Danbury felt very homey, and the rooms felt very comfortable and homey, too. It felt like a home, and it was nice. The person who took me on the tour was great and very, very helpful. I did not try the food, but the dining area looked very comfortable and lovely. I saw a chair-yoga class going on. It seems like they have gym facilities outside; they have outside spaces. It seems there was a lot to do, but it just seemed to be the smallest of the three places I visited."

"My mom is at Maplewood in Danbury, and the facility is beautiful. The activities are packed for all different levels. The food is amazing, and the people are really caring. I picked it because they have very high ratio of staff to residents. I didn't want my mom to be overwhelmed in a new place she can't navigate, and it has worked out perfectly. Because of the small size, they get a lot of individual attention. They get to know the other residents and the staff and vice versa rather quickly. It has memory care, and they have different levels like a continuing care community. If my mom's Dementia progresses even to full Alzheimer's, the place runs the complete gamut so she doesn't have to be moved. "

"A vibrant ALF with good culinary choices, diversified activities, clean environment, attentive staff, reasonable costs and collaborative planning with families.Highly recommend this experience for seniors "

"It was our good fortune to be able to have our mother move into Long Hill Home as her memory issues became too advanced for us to care for her safely in her home. A beautiful residence that looks and feels just like a single family home, but with attentive 24/7 care. Excellent meals, well appointed rooms. Everything designed to provide calm and professional care and a safe and welcoming environment. I can't say enough about the staff and care she received. She was happy and loved. We appreciated that we were always welcome there. If you are looking for a new residence for your loved one who is struggling with Alzheimer's or dementia, we can assure you that you won't find a more accommodating and quality option that this."

"Everyone is very kind. They know your name and what you need to help you out. The room is great. The interactions and activities are too. The meals are very good. "

"What a beautiful community, they have kept our family member safe while providing wonderful care and lots of activities. Such an amazing, thoughtful and considerate staff."

"My mom moved to Maplewood at Strawberry Hill's memory care, and it's so nice. I liked everything, I just didn't like the price. The people are good and the facilities are nice, but it was getting pricey. They have different activities and memory care, the same things as every other community. The staff is very good and the food is very, very good. The room is very well-decorated, it's very nice like a hotel room. Their dining area is also like a hotel, it's like going into a nice restaurant."

"I went on a tour of East Hill's assisted living facility in Southbury. It was nicer and better for my husband because they have an aide that sits outside the apartment 24 hours a day, plus they have a nurse on call 24 hours a day. It's also not much more expensive. The people who toured me were very nice and very friendly. The size of the rooms is very nice, and even the 1-bedroom apartment had a balcony, which I like. They are much larger than the ones I saw in a different facility I visited. They also have a full kitchen with a little refrigerator, so I wouldn't have to buy one. The dining area is nice. It's small, but it's because they have a dining area on every floor. It's not like the others, where you go to one big dining area. They have a swimming pool, a courtyard, and a walking area. They have four or five buildings that are attached. They have independent living, assisted living, memory care, and a nursing facility. I also want to see how close the parking space is to the main building. With the administration building, there wasn't much parking, and it was situated on a hill, making it difficult to get there. Once you got out of the car, it was far to walk."

"The Ivy at Watertown is new and very modern. They've got friendly people. I met the nurses, the staff, and the chef. They took me for a tour of the rooms. They had a model room set up with furniture in it. Then they brought me up to the studio and it was good-sized. It has a kitchen in it, a microwave, and a bathroom. For memory care, they turn the power off on all those things. If they wanted to cook some cookies or make something for themselves they'd have to call somebody to have it turned on and be watched while they did it. I didn't observe any activities going on at the time, but they have a full schedule. I was really impressed. If Mom makes it there that's where she will be going. The prices were a little bit lower than the other ones. It is a beautiful place. They have courtyards and patios. They can go outside with assistance. They have inside gardens."

"We’ve been at Glendale Center with my mom. She had rehab because she had a mini-stroke. She was there for 2 months, and they did a great job. The staff did very well by her. They did her speech and physical therapy. Each day, there’s someone that comes to entertain them, and they have doctors on call. They had doctors that came in and cut her toenails. There are plenty of good nursing staff. They have church services and bible study. It’s a good, clean, and friendly place. "
