"We toured Atria Crossroads Place. The people were very nice. They had a nice library. They had a pool table, too. My husband thinks the one-bedroom might be a little bit bigger than the other place. The staff was nice enough. There's nothing wrong with the staff. They're very knowledgeable about what goes on there, the amenities, and that kind of stuff."

"We liked the size of Elmbrook Village. They got very large apartments in comparison to what's out there. It's like 1200 square feet, so that's lovely. My parents would be in a two-bedroom unit with two full baths and a kitchenette space. We were invited for a meal when we went on the tour and Mom and Dad loved the food. It was great. Everything seemed fresh. They had a chance to talk to the woman in charge of the kitchen and so I felt like the tour was very thorough. Jennifer was also just lovely to talk with. She gave us some great information and the price was wonderful. Their amenities seemed great. They have a gathering five days a week with a glass of wine, like a little cocktail hour kind of thing, and they have some live music. They have a list of activities and their gym area is quite nice. They have a lot of exercise programs my parents would be pretty excited about. They have a professional person trained in that, not just the activities director doing little exercises with you. The front desk girl was very welcoming. The people that were working in the kitchen and working in the dining room were super nice. Everybody was great."

"We went to Commonwealth Senior Living at Haddam. It was very good. The facility itself was beautiful. It was spotless and well-staffed. The people that we met were all very, very nice. The units were very, very nice. We looked at a studio and a single room and they were actually really, really nice. They got everything you would need."

"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."

"Masonicare at Mystic was a huge place, and it was nice enough. It's located in a reasonable walking distance of the tourist area, Old Mystic Village, so it's nice. They're also not far from downtown Mystic; it's a five-minute drive, that's an advantage, and they're right on top of McQuade's, and McQuade's is a kind of semi-gourmet food market. The staff was very effective in showing people around, they charged me for the lunch, the size was rather impressive, and the parking was very good."

"Our visit to Chestnut Cottage and Carriage House at The Elms was nice. We got to meet the owner and also the director, I believe, of the facility. They were very informative and they told us about all of their services and everything. The staff was very nice. We saw quite a few of them, because at the time they were playing bingo with the residents, and everybody was very pleasant, and very engaged with the residents that were there. What was nice about it was it was small, so the residents were always visible no matter where you went. You could always see them, especially when they were in the community rooms, so that made it nice. It was cozy there. They have the same amenities as all of them, they provide laundry service, activities during the day, meals, and snacks. They also offer pet therapy, which is nice, and they also take them out on outings twice a week, and then every other Saturday."

"My mom will be moving into Creamery Brook Village. She lives nearby. She liked the layout, the comfort, and the way they paid attention to their residents 24-7, so that was attractive. The marketing director was very helpful. We spoke with some of the residents who are currently living there, and they were very pleased with the quality of the food. They have visits from a podiatrist and a hairdresser, so that was pleasing to my mother. They have a shuttle van that goes back and forth to the places, and that was helpful for them."

"Our experience here has been very good. It's very clean and they're very good about trying to get mom to participate in activities. It's small so they know everyone. They try to partner up their residents so people who would maybe get along well together would sit next to each other at tables. They have different activities every day and the activities they offer are nice. They have some sort of animals come in at least once a week. They have lots of music and they do arts and crafts. They really try to get the residents involved, like moving, talking, thinking; those important things. They don't just leave them in their rooms and let them sit in there. They try to push them in and keep them active. They even do something for every holiday that I've never heard of before. There are magazines and books available. In the activities room, they have a large screen TV where they show something. Mom pretty much likes everything and has been very happy with everything. I know that the chef found out the way mom likes her eggs in the morning and specifically cooked her eggs that way. So, that makes her day. Those little things mean a lot to her. Cleanliness is great. It's very nice. Since I've been there, I know they come into the resident's rooms every day and clean them."

I visited the memory care facility of Academy Point at Mystic. There were only 13 units in the memory care, so it's very personal. It's not like a big machine warehousing people, so that's one of...
