Pomperaug Woods a CCRC

Even though my mother was only there for a month, and unfortunately her terminal cancer took its toll. I can't say enough about this establishment. I reviewed and walked the premises of six different facilities and by far this establishment was the best in my opinion. There's a few reasons why, and I will explain. First off the staff, starting from [name removed] and [name removed] to the nurse [name removed] including all the aids made our family feel as though we were part of their family. It's a small establishment which I really appreciated. It made Mom feels though she was actually at home. In closing I want to give thanks to everybody at this establishment that made my mother's final days very peaceful.

As an exercise teacher at several area senior living facilities, I have always been very impressed with Pomperaug Woods. PW feels warm, bright, and peaceful. However, as much as it feels peaceful, it is easy to see that it is a very vibrant community offering a wide range of activities to promote the well being of the residents mind, body and spirit such as a variety of exercise and art classes, shows, field trips... There are beautiful spaces that promote community interaction yet places one can retreat to read a book next to a cozy fireplace. Through conversation with my students, it is easy to see it is a place they feel very happy living at. The staff are very friendly and respectful in their interactions with the residents. My Mom, who is 85, has attended a couple of events PW hosted and she told me that PW is a place she can easily see herself transitioning to. I know as her daughter, I would feel comforted to know it would be her new home.

I have been entertaining at Pomperaug Woods for over 30 years. I have always found the staff and community to be exceptional. The level of activities is superb. It is easily one of the premier facilities in the state.

I'm lucky enough to perform music at Pomeraug Woods and I am impressed with the care I see given at this community. The environment is clean and cheery, and because I play many Senior Communities, I get asked, from time to time, for recommendations. Pomeraug is one of the Senior Communities that I recommend when people ask me about this type of care.

While only on the waiting list for a specific apartment at Pomperaug Woods, the atmosphere and attitude of the staff are caring, courteous and helpful.

Informational session was helpful in a general way. I came away realizing that any person considering admission should bring a very astute family member or friend to review the various options and financial issues.

I perform as a musician at more than 60 retirement communities throughout the North East. Pomperaug Woods is among the nicest, well run homes I've had the pleasure of working with. I have witnessed a high level of care for the residents by the recreation staff and nurses, and have heard positive feedback from residents in regards to the community at large. This is certainly a place I would consider for a loved one who needs exceptional care.

I have been an entertainer at Pomperaug Woods for a while now and always enjoy the residents there. There seems to be a lot of activity for them. It is clean and most of the staff are friendly.

My wife had an eight week stay at Pomperaug Woods and I couldn't be happier with the complete staff including the kitchen! All of the people involved in my wife"s recovery are superheros. They have what it takes to make anyone feel safe and comfortable. Constant monitoring of my wife's well being, medication and hygeine. They are did a wonderful job. I would recommend Pomperaug Woods to anyone seeking this type of service.

Not only does the facility provide comfortable accommodation, but also can be found is a multitude of opportunities for gracious living. There is something for everyone, whether it be exercise classes or Classical music. All this is offered in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It is a good start for the rest of your life.

My mother has been at Pomperaug Woods for several years. She began her life there in the independent living facility. After several health issues, she is now in the Health Center where she receives the most wonderful care. I cannot say enough about the staff. They are the most dedicated "angels" that do all they can to make my mom's stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. They keep our family well-informed and up to date on any changes in Mom's care. They make us feel confident that she is in good hands. I cannot imagine a better place with a more dedicated staff.

My parents have been at Pomperaug for many years. They have periodically needed the services of the Health Center, which is a first-rate facility. The administrative staff treats us like family. The dining room choices are like a fine restaurant. Best of all, the cultural and artistic activities are creative and stimulating. The grounds are well-kept and beautiful. Our family gives Pomperaug the highest rating on all counts!

Our 88 year old Mom moved in right at the beginning of the Covid pandemic. Although activities were curtailed PW did an awesome job to pivot and make sure she and all the residents were safe and well cared for. The place was kept spotless an the staff at all levels was and is amazing. Now with things mostly back open, the experience for Mom has just gotten better. From meeting new friends and dinner companions to the array of perfectly planned social and physical activities.

What a great place. Beautiful, luxurious and well taken care of, the facility and grounds could not be more inviting. And the services and care are top notch. My mom is very happy there and well taken care of.

I have several friends move into Pomperaug Woods in the past few years. They love the homey atmosphere, the cheerful pleasant staff who call them by name. The food is varied and tasty, needs are met and more.!

Pomperaug Woods has been a wonderful experience for my mother. The accommodations are lovely, safe, and thoughtful. Staff have been friendly and warm, and the community offers delightful meals and activities. It has been a pleasure to know my mother is in an environment where she is well thought of and well looked after. I highly recommend Pomperaug Woods.

i have had family and friends join the Pomperaug Woods community. it's programs, administration and staff are caring and engaged, responsive to the ever changing needs of its clientele. A healthy sign is its low staff turnover and the fact that staff knows the clientele on a first name basis. We are lucky to have a community of this quality available in our locale.

My Dad has lived here for about a dozen years and says it is the best decision he ever made. He's made friends. He participates in many activities. The staff is terrific. Everyone is attentive to the needs of the residents As well, it is comforting to know that if Dad ever needs nursing care, it is right there on the other side of the building.
