Memory Care Communities in Rocky Hill, CT

"Large bright apartments with lots of sunlight. Easy access to shopping and I-84. The staff are very friendly and seem to be happy there. I see a lot of faces that were here when I visited a friend a before COVID and that is a good sign. I've been looking locally for my parents and this seems to be a great fit!"

"What I liked best about Arden Courts of Farmington was it was very homey. Their rooms were not big, so the patients don't get lost in their own rooms because it does happen. They seemed to have a good staff there just from the ones that I met. It's very clean and I like that they're able to go outside when summer hits. They have a courtyard and a salon. It's all memory care, and the staff was very educated about this illness. They showed me their arts and crafts place."

"Buckingham Heights was only dedicated exclusively to memory care so that they can address every need at every stage, whatever happens to your loved one who's got dementia. Suzanne assisted us with the tour and she was wonderful. She's been there a long time and can answer any question you have. The other shining star thing that I would say about the place was that they had a lot of staff who have been there for many years. They have relatively low turnover and there is a lot of staff. They have like a 5-year, 15-year, and 20-year club for those staff who have been there that long. The dining area looked very nice. The rooms were basic but pleasant. The idea there was not to spend all your time in your room. So, the room was just a place to dress and bathe and sleep. But the life of the place was based on keeping the residents engaged and active. When it comes to the activities, they are appropriate for people with memory issues. They have an inner courtyard that is freely available for residents to go into on their own. For the outside patios, you need to have somebody with you. Even their physical facilities were designed to give the most freedom and autonomy to their residents."

"As a Deacon at First Congregational Church Cromwell, I work with the activities director to provide an ecumenical service for residents. The staff has been wonderful in providing a clean, beautiful and peaceful setting for the service as well as publicizing the monthly service. We have been provided with internet access so that our service can utilize modern technology in servicing the residents. Residents seem pleased with the service and often talk positively about other activities and experiences that have ben made available to them."

"I visited Brookdale West Hartford and looked at their memory care unit for my mother. As a visitor, I liked everything about it. It's very nice, and the layout is very good. I like the way they laid out the floors. I think the food is very good, too. The people are very nice and very attentive. It's a very nice and very warm place. It's also a very clean facility."

"The Village at Kensington Place is big enough, but it's not humongous. The memory care unit has a fabulous setup. The rooms are clean. The food was great. I thought it was a really nice place. The people seemed very caring. The girl who was going to do the tour had something come up, and she asked if I would mind going with the head chef. The chef was wonderful. They sent me home with a fresh loaf of freshly baked cranberry bread and it was fabulous. They had an outdoor space in the back of the building. They have two other little areas where they can go outside."

"My father moved into The Residence at South Windsor Farms. Our overall experience with it is very positive. I like that they know all the residents and that they make sure that they're getting the care that they need. The room is bright and up to date. He enjoys their food. They have all kinds of activities to choose from, like exercise, crafts, and games. The staff members are very friendly, and the residents seem happy and well cared for."

"My father will be moving into The Village at Buckland Court. Everyone's been really friendly. They make my dad very welcome there. It's very spacious inside. We liked how there was a lot of little gathering spots in the building. Everyone's very welcoming. My dad's very comfortable."

"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."

"River Ridge at Avon was very nice. They took us through everything. They took us to all the rooms. They showed us what goes on from day to day. It was a very good experience. The building was nice. The rooms were clean. It was top-notch. The amenities they offered were good. There were computers. The people I met were very professional and very good."

"The Residence at Brookside was a very nice facility. Partly the reason is because they're more expensive than the other place. It's a beautiful place. They have a memory care facility as well, but we didn't look at that. We only met the marketing lady, and she was very nice. We couldn't go in there if we didn't wear masks. I was impressed."

"We have brought my aunt into Arden Courts of Avon, and they were all wonderful. She is there for a short-term respite. The reason we chose them was that they were very welcoming, the location was convenient to our home, and it didn't seem like a hospital-type setting. It feels very home. The staff who assisted us were excellent, professional, warm, and welcoming. We're very happy with the staff. We're very pleased with the facilities."

"Colebrook Village at Hebron was very nice. We had lunch there, which was just soup and a sandwich. The people were very friendly and very nice. There were many people who were using such devices, so that turned me off a little bit. But the facility was lovely, and the accommodations were lovely. The other thing I like about Colebrook is that they have a lot of people there that I know. So I wouldn't be going into a place without knowing anyone. So that was a plus. It was friendly and very accessible. There are some walking trails, and it is very near to my primary doctor, CVS, and a supermarket, and that's a plus. The person who works there brought me meals from Colebrook, and the food is very, very good."
