Atria Darien

It is very expensive for what they offer. Mom is settled but has found it hard to make friends. Lots of staff turn over

My mother and I toured Atria Darien last week and were extremely impressed by the staff and facility. We had many questions about the scope and level of care that were thoroughly addressed. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms were spacious, the dining room, gardens, libraries, and other facilities were very impressive.

Moving your parents Into an assisted/independent living facility is never an easy decision. That said, When dealing with a place as lovingly and impeccably managed as the Atria Darien, You immediately gain peace of mind. In fact, my husband and I joked that we wanted to move there right away because it feels like wonderful combination of a high country club, Resort and small and well run condominium. My family and I cannot say enough great things about the staff and the premises. From Sales to nursing to social work to front desk to restaurant, the care and warmth that exudes from each person is palpable. Do not hesitate to seek a place for your loved one here if it’s available.

Our mother moved to Atria this past fall & [names removed] & their amazing team did the impossible! Our mother is so happy! She said Atria could be in a tent & she’d still love it there because of how wonderful the people are there, especially [name removed]! We feel this is in large part due to all the love & amazing care that [names removed] provide to all the residents. [name removed] feels like family, beyond securing my mother’s stay, she makes our mother, the residents, their kids & grandkids feel special every day. She provides great solutions to questions, always has their best interests in mind! The team there is a treasure! We were able to move our mother from Western NY to Darien smoothly due to the care the team provided, assisting us each step of the way. She was an implacable rock for 15+ years & the team helped us beyond our wildest dreams to make her safe, secure and very happy!

The staff is wonderful. Every day they give 100% to help make the residents happy and comfortable. And the families secure knowing their loved ones are being looked after and cared for with kindness and compassion and dignity. Atria Darien is a great fit.

The Atria staff are very accommodating - attentive to our needs - their manner of grace, caring, love and support of us - treated with dignity and respect - and provided creative solutions to whatever we needed.

The entire team at Atria Darien, especially [name removed], went out of their way to make our mother’s transition from home to assisted living a great experience. [name removed] attention to detail, patience and expertise and handling the most difficult aspects of a big out of town move made this necessary step go so smoothly for a very reluctant new guest. [name removed] was wonderful and attended to my mother’s needs with love, warmth and expert care. This is a very special place and feels like home.

I recently attended an Alzheimer’s Charity Event at The Atria of Darien and was blown away by the beautiful spread of food and decor and hardworking staff. It was wonderful to interact with the residents and view the artistic talent of Atria’s residents-their art was displayed throughout the event space. The community is warm and welcoming and I would recommend it to any of my clients looking to move into a community.

Recommended. The staff makes extraordinary efforts to provide a wide range of activities, seminars, and presentations, including some off campus, as well as daily exercise programs with excellent coaches. The food offerings are top shelf. The dining staff listens and remembers individual dining preferences including food choices and dining companions. When first scoping it out for my father, we'd ask random residents how they liked it and, with almost no exceptions, we were told "We love it!"

My brother is a resident at Atria Darien CT. I spent an afternoon with him there, and was quite impressed. Firstly the building and the grounds are lovely and very well-kept. Having had a chance to speak to some of the administrators I came away, impressed with how caring and professional they were. This facility is very well run. I stayed for lunch, which was very good. My brother reports that it’s always very good. The people at the table with us had nothing but good things to say about living there. I came away, feeling that this was the perfect place for my brother to thrive.

Darien Atria has given my family peace of mind. My Dad went into assisted living reluctantly. Within one week (thanks to the amazing staff) he was happy, taking advantage of the different programs and loving being social in the dining room for his meals. He/we love the environment, amazing staff and we even enjoy attending lectures and music events with my Dad. Darien Atria is the best of the best in Fairfield County. The staff are familiar not only with the residents but their families. It is a very special place.

We chose Atria Darien after looking at several other local independent living communities. Mom was attracted to the intimacy of the Atria Darien community, the spaciousness of the apartment, and the overall feel of the facility and grounds. Everyone involved, from the administration to the staff to the other residents made her feel extremely welcome. The involvement of the other residents getting her familiar with the community was especially helpful and appreciated. She took advantage of their trial month before fully committing, and we were impressed with how well they furnished the apartment and with them going out of the way to add small amenities particularly selected to my Mom's taste. We are several months in now and all is going well. While Mom values her independence, coming and going as she pleases, she has made a number of new friends, enjoys the group dining experience and is taking advantage of many of the daily activities. So far, the experience has been terrific!

I had a wonderful experience touring Atria in Darien. The Community is not only lovely it is also warm and welcoming. [name removed] was thorough and kind, answering all of my questions and offering great suggestions. Everyone I met from the CFO to the Maintenance tech was friendly and engaging. The apartments are well-appointed and spacious. The dining room is gorgeous with many menu choices and daily specials. So much to do and see there. When my Dad decides to make his move, I know he will call Atria his home and second family.

My husband and I researched and toured a number of senior living residences for his 89 year old mom. We were very impressed with Atria Darien due 1) the beauty and spirit of the building, 2) the activities, dining (amazing!), care services and public spaces for the residents and 3) the professional team, many who we met in person during our first tour and continued working with moving forward. The best part is that my mother-in-law and the other members of our family feel exactly the same! We are very happy that our 89 year old mom is a member of the Atria Darien family!

Beautiful assisted living facility with friendly professional staff that go above and beyond to welcome and care for residents. Delicious meals, comfortable accommodations, well organized activities. We appreciate the care and kindness extended to our parent.

The staff are excellent. Everyone is friendly and plenty of folks say how happy they are. I think it was an excellent choice for me. Everyone is part of the family. The food is very good. It's very homey-feels like family.

Very positive experience moving our dad into Atria Darien. Very welcoming staff, with positive helpful attitudes. The nursing director has been wonderful, kind and patient.

The entire team of Atria Darien has helped, make my dads move more smooth and positive. We are very excited for hom to join this wonderful community. The Nursing Director is such a welcoming and calm person who offers support with so many aspects of care.

We ( my husband and I) have a wonderful life here. Our days are full of activities, that we like such as stimulating speakers, movies, games, crafts, readin groups etc. Food oustanding! Great place to live.

I think it's the people who work at Atria that make it the special place that it is. They are compassionate and caring and you can feel that the moment you enter the front door. An atmosphere is created where I see my mom happy and engaged, and I enjoy meeting all of the new friends that she's made. Any concern that does pop up is addressed quickly and professionally and with compassion. An inviting and welcoming community has been created at Atria in Darien.
