Memory Care Communities in Waterford, CT

"This is a jewel box of a facility. I have visited many times (trying to convince my Mom she wants to move here from PA). They are warm and welcoming, the facility is bright and beautiful, the food is fantastic, the activities are out of this world and the staff treats you like the family members you are. I would recommend this facility to anyone who wants their loved one to live in a vibrant and caring facility with all the comforts of home and then some. "

"I toured Crescent Point at Niantic. The gentleman who walked us around took all the time we needed. I think it was at least an hour and a half. He was very pleasant, very knowledgeable, and very passionate about what they did and their community. It was well-designed, easy to get around, and well-maintained. It was impressive. Somebody unfortunately passed away or left, and they just completely gut and redid the room. Once somebody leaves, they completely gut it down to the frame and start all over again, including the floor."

"I visited Academy Point at Mystic for my dad. It is a beautifully situated, old school house that looks out at the river and is so pretty. It's dated, though, and wasn’t the right kind of place for my father. I didn’t like the memory care unit at all. I was so depressed when I went into the memory unit, but as far as their assisted living and independent living, it was beautiful. The apartments were incredible, airy, and had views of the water. The residents seemed to be happy. I think it was lovely place, but it wasn’t going to work for my father. "

"My mom is already at Elmbrook Village At Bozrah. It's been very good. It's really friendly. The staff and also the clientele, the people that are living there, are very friendly. The place is only two years old, so everything is brand new. It's clean and it's very nice. From the tour up until the move-in process was very smooth. The person who wrote off her assisted care plan came to the house, and it was very smooth, very nice, and very informative. The food is delicious; I ate lunch and dinner with her on the first day. They have many activities going on there. From 8:00 in the morning until 8:00 in the evening, they have activities going on of all different kinds. My mom's room is set up very nicely. It's one large room that has a kitchenette, a dining area, and a living space. Some of the apartments have a balcony. They show a movie every night, and they have taped concerts like Dolly Parton and Tony Bennett. They have what that age group would relate to. Value for money is a 4 because it's expensive."

"I toured Commonwealth Senior Living at Haddam. It was a very good tour. They had a couple of units available, and they showed them all to us. They would have worked out because they offered more services. It was a very pretty location. The facilities were very nice. We saw people doing all different kinds of things, and the staff was very pleasant. Everybody we spoke to was very nice and accommodating. And the cook came out to meet us and asked if we had questions. It was very nice. The apartments were very nice. They were one-bedroom units with bigger kitchen areas and full-sized appliances. I liked the rooms a little better. They were a little more spacious than the other place, although they were both in very nice condition. They had just painted and put new carpets in, and so everything looked very nice."

"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."
