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.

ARC-CT is a loving, respectful, clean, and professional care facility. My mother started out in their day care program and then went into assisted living, and then through both levels of advanced stage care aat this wnderful facility. She lost her battle this past Tuesday after four years at ARCC. The love, respect, dignity, and care provided not only to my mother, but to the rest of our family was beyond what any of us ever could have imagined. I cannot even adequately express how thankful I am to have ben fortunate enough to have found such a fantastic facility to care for my angel mother.
