Hoffman Summerwood Community in West Hartford, CT
5.0

My parents are very happy and comfortable at the Hoffman community. The place is clean and well maintained. Everyone there is so nice, from the residents to the staff members. The food is good and they have so many activities.

Ocean Meadow Memory Care in Clinton, CT
5.0

They have been great. It is a smaller facility so it feels much homier. The staff seems to be very in tune with all of the residents there. They get really personalized care, we really could not be happier. I looked at 4 different places and this one was by far the best and the least the expensive. It has been the perfect fit and I would highly recommend Ocean Meadow to other families looking.

The Village at Mariners Point in East Haven, CT
4.0

The staff here is really friendly and they are helpful. We think that this is a big step up from the last place we were at. My loved one loves it here and they have a bunch of activities for her to get involved. She likes the food and is getting settled in nicely.
