"My wife has been a resident of Danbury Wooster’s Memory Care Unit for almost two years. This review describes my experience. The “face” of Danbury are the “aides.” They will come to know your loved one and will quickly learn how to relate to them. Learn aides’ names quickly but remember that their time with your loved one is determined by their work schedule. In other words, there are three shifts, and the aides rotate, so you’ll learn a lot of names. The more the aides know you, the better they can relate to your loved one. Occasionally, I’m overwhelmed when we pass staff in the hallways, staff I don’t know, and they speak to my wife using her name! Considering both the number of residents and staff that is really impressive. Aides are very well trained, and they have “on-the-job” training sessions as well. They are your best source of information. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. When one aide doesn’t know the answer, time after time, they have returned with a response. Remember, that whatever is done for a resident makes it into the “chart” (a personalized record of resident’s daily events). If you want to know what your loved one did yesterday, it’s been recorded. You only have to ask. Once an aide comes to know your concerns , they can begin to anticipate your concerns and give you details of what happens when you are not there. "
