Assisted Living Communities in Southport, CT

"Middlebrook Farms at Trumbull had a good appearance. It's well-maintained. The apartment was a good size and well maintained, too. The staff was knowledgeable and very professional. The dining area was clean. They have the normal clubs and there's like a list of maybe 15 things on the board, so the activities seemed more than adequate."

"Over two years have gone by since I first reviewed the Greens, and I can still say without hesitation that my sisters and I remain thrilled and relieved by the care that our parents are receiving at the Greens. Our parents require more attention and assistance now than when they moved to the Greens over 3 years ago, and the staff at the Greens continues to provide that care in a very compassionate and kind manner. The nursing director is probably the greatest asset and resource at the Greens. Our family is completely confident and reassured by her commitment and caring for the residents. There are many other noteworthy personnel, from the aides to the recreation, transportation, and dining room staff. The bottom line is that residents are treated like family, and our family is so grateful to have discovered the Greens at Cannondale."

"My father has been a resident at Maplewood of Darien for 5 months. We have been very pleased with his care. His room, which is a studio, is very generously sized , the handicapped bathroom is large and the kitchenette is perfect for him. The staff is very attentive. When I am there even for the shortest visit, invariably a staff member will knock on his door to check on him. They have a broad range of activities. My father's favorites involve the outings such as scenic drives, concerts, plays and luncheons. He enjoys having lunch with a good friend he has made at the facility. Maplewood also allows me to coordinate his care with the V.A. where he receives his medications. The managing and administrative staff is very responsive and are always working to develop programs that the residents enjoy. I would highly recommend this facility."

"I love the Spring Meadows by Monarch. It was clean and bright. The decor was amazing. They had that soothing blue. And the residents that we passed by were really pleasant. They were all so very happy. The room itself was just amazing. It was a perfect fit for what I was looking for. The sales manager was extremely nice and very informative in terms of the community, especially the activities that are offered. It was nice. The receptionist was amazing, and the nurses that walked by were very well-mannered and very pleasant."

"We had a good experience with Meadow Ridge. There are people who are very active there and they have programs. We visited twice and we had some of their food, but it was not a sit down, so it's difficult to really say. It was quite expensive."

"Atria Darien truly deserves the highest praise. From our first visit, we were impressed by the professionalism, warmth, and accessibility of the staff, and we immediately knew this was the right place for our mother. Every question, from the moving-in process to daily details, was answered promptly and with care. The staff consistently goes above and beyond their job responsibilities, and their longevity speaks to the wonderful culture at Atria. The community is welcoming and vibrant, offering a wide variety of activities and special events for residents and families. Most importantly, we have peace of mind knowing our mother is safe, well cared for, and surrounded by a community that feels like family."

"I toured Spring Village at Stratford. The facility looks nice. The staff was very helpful. She explained everything clearly, so it was very good, and everything looked fine."

"I toured Carriage Green at Milford. The tour was fine. I thought it was really excellent. They have everything you ever need. The staff showed me three different rooms. The two 1-bedrooms were perfect. I wasn't interested in the studios, but the other two rooms were very large. They were certainly enough for one person and lots of storage. It was an excellent place. We went into the dining room. She explained everything to me, which was very nice. I thought that you had to have meals at a certain time every day, but that was not the case. Their restaurant was open all day, and you can eat when you want to. She also showed me the game room, the TV room, the conference room, the ice cream parlor, and the library. The staff was very nice. Even the people living there were very nice. When we walked through, they were very friendly. It was my first visit to that type of facility, and I was very impressed with it. I just have a lot of considerations, and I'm really not quite ready yet."

"Benchmark at Split Rock was very nice. The lady we talked to was excellent and very informative. We looked at both assisted living and memory care. Everything seemed good. They sent us home with some sandwiches, and they tasted fine."

"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."

"I looked at this facility for my 91yr. Old mom who has dementia. I feel it is a perfect solution for her . The staff were engaged and genuinely caring of the residents. It was a warm and cozy home without a hint of the institutionalized feel but at the same time I felt confident that the CNA ‘s were very capable. I would highly recommend visiting and considering this type of facility . "

"The rooms are very bright with large windows. There are one-bedroom apartments in the memory care unit which is hard to find. The dining room is big and the food is very good. There are always snacks, fresh fruit and cookies for in between meals. The staff is friendly and very patient. The communal areas are nicely furnished. There is always something happening, like a music concert or dancing, games, puzzles."

"I recently stayed at Atria Stamford while recovering from hip replacement. My room was clean and beautiful. The staff were warm, welcoming and very experienced in helping people recovering after surgery. The other residents were interesting and so encouraging! Making new friends while recovering was a bonus I was not expecting! This is my second joint replacement so I was aware of the challenges of recovering at home especially living alone. Atria Stamford was a terrific place to recover and if I ever need care in the future I wouldn’t hesitate to return. Thank you Atria Stamford Team!"

"My parents are residents of Waterstone at High Ridge. It is extremely well-maintained and extremely clean. There are good activities. The staff is very caring. It has a great sense of a social community, which a lot of them don't. So, there are always people out in the facility, visible, and they talk. It's a social place. It's independent, so the staff is doing tasks, but they're not assisting them with any activities of daily living other than providing food. The staff is all fantastic. They're friendly, courteous, and wonderful. Their food is good. It's gone up and down over the years. Sometimes it's good and sometimes okay, but compared to other places I've seen, it's very good. They have music multiple times a week. Once a month, they have an art show and a little art gallery. They have multiple social events in the pub. They have multiple daily activities every week, every day. My mother complains that it's too much of a game plan, but they do have a variety of activities. Vinnie, the activities director, is amazing. He is the sweetest, nicest, most wonderful person. He is just a darling, and he's very dedicated. They give us good value."
