Assisted Living Communities in West Hartford, CT

"It was a much bigger place and was more geared towards the younger folks that didn't need much assistance. At least that's what I got out of it. If you're younger, then it would suit you very well. It is large and a little bit intimidating. The staff members were very good. They were attentive and they answered our questions. We saw the dining area, which was very nice. We also talked to the chef; he was nice as well. They had a lot of great activities. They're more higher end activities and geared towards younger more mobile and more active folks. It was a really nice place but it was different. It was also huge."

"Brookdale South Windsor was nice. We liked it. It's really nice inside. However, the rooms were a little smaller than the place we chose. Everyone was very friendly when we were there. The building seemed so much bigger from the inside."

"Stone Brook is a beautiful place! We have been very impressed with the apartments, the dining room and meals as well as the wonderful staff and employees! We especially would like to compliment the manner in which Stone Brook has managed to maintain excellent communication with families and care of the residents during the COVID 19 pandemic. As a Nurse and Daughter, I cannot say enough about the care and consideration Stone Brook has taken to ensure the health and safety of everyone who lives there. I would highly recommend Stone Brook to those who are looking. "

"I highly recommend All American Assisted Living at Enfield. My aunt is currently staying in their assisted living facility for respite care. It's very clean and all the people who work there are very friendly and accommodating. I like how they have nurses there, and a doctor comes in, I think, once a week. The food is really good, and they have a nice way of doing meals. You sit at your table, your menu is in front of you with your name on it, and you get to pick what you want, and they bring it to you. My aunt's also eating, which is great because she lost a lot of weight, and is forgetting to eat, so I like it. I've also eaten there a few times. One day, I was there for lunch, and it was a chicken pot pie. The biscuit was on top, so you didn't have to cut through a crust, and it was very easy to eat. I sat with two women who were in their 80s and 90s, and they were able to just use their fork and not have to worry about a knife. The food was fresh and healthy, and really good. There was steamed fresh broccoli for the vegetable, and then for dessert, it was ice cream. It's very welcoming, and just a really good place to stay that is above average. The staff members are right there checking on people, so I have been able to sleep well since my aunt has been in. Anytime you ask them a question and need anything, they're right there and they take care of it for you with a smile. When we needed something, we went and told the desk, and they got the maintenance man to go in and take care of it. I don't really think they have enough activities, though. I had gone to another facility that had all kinds of really good stuff. I noticed that people are creating their own entertainment. Like, there's a group of people that go watch a movie in a certain location, or they make their own group to play cards together. I don't think there are enough activity instructors or directors, so to speak. I also think it's a little overpriced."

"Colebrook Village at Hebron offers 24-hour nursing care. I probably would have opted to go with this facility, because it's closer to us, but they didn't have any availability when we visited. We toured the memory care area and they were very kind, understanding, empathetic, and very welcoming. It was well-kept and very clean."

"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."

"They provided three meals a day, and it was not too far from my house. The staff was very fine and very knowledgeable. They showed me the calendar for a month of what they did. They had an exercise room. They had yoga. They had rider's group. The atmosphere was very peaceful. We looked at a studio, but I guess she's going to be in a one-bedroom. They were a little small, but they did need a lot because they did not cook. The food was provided for them so they did not need a big place. "

"My in-person visit to AVIVA West Hartford was wonderful. The apartment was very nice. The people were really great. They're very helpful and very welcoming. It was a very nice visit. The rooms were very nice and very spacious."

"We moved to The McAuley a year ago and love the independent living here. We continue to live our lives as we did before we came, visiting friends and families, but not we also have the friendship of the other residents. And we are free of the troubles related to home and condo ownership!"

"My mother is a 90 year old resident at the Retreat. I can't say enough about what a wonderful warm and caring place this is. The staff are very attentive and the residents are all so friendly and warm. This is my mother's third assisted living due to relocation. She has dementia issues and has felt isolated at the other facilities but not here. The rooms are lovely and she loves the food. The nursing staff are always available. Thank God we found The Retreat!!!"

"We visited Middlewoods of Farmington and my husband is not qualified for that, but it's wonderful. The director there was unbelievably wonderful. She has contacted us many times and she has referred us to other places, which I have on the list to visit. My husband is not eligible because he has a level of dementia and they said they don't think that they can take him. I've toured the bedrooms and I've toured the whole thing, and it's wonderful. The staff during the tour was very, very knowledgeable. The bedrooms were very nice. We looked at a one-bedroom unit, and it has a little kitchen area. We wanted something larger than that, but it was not available to visit. The one that we looked at was very adequate and well equipped. The only thing that you didn't pay for was cable. They've sent food over, and it was really good. They have physical education and somebody comes in and does that. They take people on trips, they have movies, and they have a lot of things going on. They have cooking classes, they have games, bowling and television bowling, and bingo and my husband was going over there for penny poker, which he loved."
