Some of aides get to know their patients liked and dislikes. They know my mom loves music so sometimes they go in singing to her. They have a new memory care director who is also very sweet and cares about all the Residents. They play music in the hallway sometimes they will find mom swaying to the music. Overall we really like it here!

It is expensive but knowing that she's safe, well fed, medical care, is worth it all and more. It took her 3-4 months to get acclimated. She was use to her own home, own car and going where ever and when ever she chose. For 3-4 months other than meals she stay in her apartment. Now we call and she's too busy to answer!

October 24, 2024Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear that your loved one has settled in and is now thriving in our community. Your trust in us means a lot, and we’re thrilled she’s found her place here!
[name removed] has not lived at The Residence at South Windsor Farms for more than a year. The food service was the best thing. As a comparison, my mother transferred to the [community name removed] and all they never offered were the specials. They pretended they didn't have a regular menu. The food was the worst thing there. Unfortunately she now in a long term care facility.

March 15, 2024Thank you for your kind thoughts!
We moved my mom into assisted living and she loved it for a few months. The building is on the small side which was what my mom liked about it. Beautiful grounds and interior. Very well kept up, the food is amazing and staff were kind. They told us there was a "transitional" program/activities once residents showed signs of dementia. There was no program. Another issue for us was the high turnover of nursing staff. We had to move her due to declining cognitive function and lack of staff to attend to her in the assisted living area.

Response from The Residence at South Windsor Farms
March 15, 2024Thank you for your kind thoughts. We are very sorry that you did not find our transitional programming to be sufficient--most of it exists within the S.H.I.E.L.D. program, which is designed to promote optimal cognitive and physical health. While we have been fully staffed, it is true that some residents need more one-on-one attention. Our Assisted Living environment is designed to balance care with individual independence, which is not for everyone. Our Reflections Memory Care neighborhood provides higher staffing ratios for more personal care.
My loved one was a resident at The Residence at South Windsor Farms. In Memory Care, the residents are not presented with the extensive meal choices and are only offered 2 specials. My loved one had multiple falls and trips to the ER for them. The staff offered no suggestions to help minimize falls. I was also told that they have a 24 hour nurse, which was not the case during our experience.

February 5, 2024We are sorry that you were less than satisfied with our community. We take all concerns to heart, as it is our goal to exceed your expectations. Our community does have 24-hour nurse coverage, in person during the daytime and on-call overnight--we're sorry if there was some confusion around that. Falls are a going concern with an aging population, and it is sometimes a difficult balance between keeping residents confined to bed or a chair and giving them time to stay physically active.
This is a Wonderful place to call home! The staff is incredibly friendly and truly care about your well being. The living aesthetic is perfect and is well maintained! Big Thank You to everyone who works here!

I visited this community as I was searching options for my dad. The community had a sign to welcome me for my visit which I thought was very nice. The community was clean and bright. A nice woman helped a resident read a card she got in the mail that day. It was a nice feeling to know that they go beyond their normal duties to help the people who live there. The sales director was very nice and able to answer all my questions. My dad is looking forward to moving into his new apartment!

I stopped into the Residence at South Windsor Farms to look for memory care options for my mother-in law. I’ve seen many options in the area today and what resonated the most with me when making this difficult decision was the friendliness of the staff, the feel of the neighborhood, the residents were clean, well taken care of and out and about. [name removed] the sales director was so kind, caring, and listened to my concerns. I also met the nurse [name removed] who made me feel safe, and that she would be well cared for when we’re ready to make a decision in the next month or two on placing my mother-in-law.

The staff at The Residence at South Windsor Farms was incedibly helpful when I was in need of locating a place for my mom after Rehab. Mom could not go back home alone and I had 48 hours to move her from the Rehab facility. The Social Director at Rehab suggested to look into The Residence at South Windsor Farms. We were elated with the tour of the facility. They had everything in one location and the apartments were beautiful! Everyone there is so helpful and a pleasure to work with! We are so glad to have found this fantastic facility.

In looking for a place for my mom, I visit the Residence at South Windsor Farms and stayed for lunch. Lorrie and Eileen were so knowledgeable, warm and fully understanding of the conflicted feelings the family and my mom have about making a change. All of the staff we met smiled, said hello and the food was outstanding! We also met some of the department mangers, each who took the time to tell us what they do and how their departments make the Residence the best assisted living around! Highly recommend!

June 5, 2023Thank you for sharing your experience at South Windsor Farms!
We moved my MIL in November 2022 with a plan of a 60 day respite. We’re now 3 months in and she’s thriving! She is continuing her stay there as she feels so much better than when she was home alone & having challenges managing her medications. She’s back to herself, sharper and incredibly social. The food is amazing and is enjoying the new friendships she has made. Every time we see her or talk she shares how thankful she is for the amazing associates and their kindness. The Residence is top notch in South Windsor & would not have her anywhere else in the area! Thank you to all that work there. You have given myself, my husband and her daughter peace of mind. Most importantly you have given her quality of life back where she can be her!

February 10, 2023Thank you for this review, Kellie! We strive to provide our residents and families with the support they need to thrive daily. We are ecstatic to hear of your experience and appreciate you sharing!
It became apparent very early that there was a large change over in staffing. It seemed that my mother had an aide that was new every few days. The director and business manager and sales reps have changed in July and then again in September and one of the positions in January. I received a call from a nursing director that was less than professional and when I went to meet her about a week later, she no longer worked there. Aides actually told my mother she was calling for help too often and she was going to be charged for each call.

January 20, 2023Thank you for your feedback. We take all concerns very seriously, and they are important in helping us to improve services and meet expectations. There is no question that the recent climate has made it difficult for our industry and healthcare in general from a staffing standpoint, but at this time things have normalized significantly. Part of our commitment to our residents is ensuring that the community team is optimized, and that does at times necessitate making changes. We regret that it can be disruptive, but do feel that in the long term it's what's best for our residents and their care.
Since our loved one has been there, there are been quite a big turnover with the administrative staff team which has been quite cumbersome. However the nurses there have been there for awhile which is great. The care services are really good - the price is quite high but at the end of the day it is worth it. Based on our experience we would recommend The Residences at South Windsor Farms to other families.

November 3, 2022Thank you for your review, Gene! We are glad you enjoyed your tour.
This community was much to expensive and fancy for what I was looking for for my loved one. The tour was great it was just not the right fit of community for my loved one.

May 5, 2022Thank you for your five-star review!
It's not for everyone. It did not work out for my loved one. She didn't like it there. The residents and the staff are very nice. The food used to be phenomonal and it has gone downhill. It has 2 floors. They offered bingo, cards, card making with arts and crafts. They would go for rides to the grocery store and around town. She enjoyed that. They did offer automatic payments for billing.
