Continuing Care Community in Hartford County, Connecticut

White Oaks is very nice. The staff is wonderful and I talked to my mom about it. It's a little above her price range, but I have no complaints at all. I think it's a wonderful facility. The rooms were very nice. I saw a 1-bedroom and a studio. The only thing that I think would be a concern for my mom is that there was no laundry facility in the apartment itself, but they were very well-maintained and kept. It's a great place. They have a lot of different things. It's set up a lot differently than they usually have it set up due to COVID, but the amenities were great and they have activities indoors and outdoors, depending on the weather.

My mother moved into Atria Greenridge Place last week on March 4th. The staff is very friendly; from the people at the front entrance to the people that came in and took care of my mother. They're very friendly and kind. It's a beautiful and attractive facility. The lobby is beautiful, the rooms are beautiful, and my mom has a lovely room overlooking the courtyard. The halls and the rooms are extremely clean. I've seen the meals being delivered to my mom and they were appetizing. She's been to the dining room twice and she has enjoyed the food too. Of all the places I looked at, they were the best.

I visited Brookdale Farmington two years ago, and they had a nice price range. Not all the rooms were up to par, however. They were older, and the building itself was very old. The setting where it was located was absolutely beautiful. It's a very nice area. The food was OK, but it wasn't great. The staff who accommodated me was terrific. The thing that got me was the age of the place. Everything was just old and needed updating. It was clean, but old. It was homey though. I have to say they did their best to make it look like a home. They had nice sitting areas and those things were very nice.

Brookdale Chatfield hires the best staff. They are very, very helpful and very easy to get along with. We get breakfast and dinner, and they are very good. When we were confined in our rooms because of COVID, they delivered the meals right to our doors. They also have nice entertainment when the rooms are open for entertainment. They are nice and lovely people. The residents here are also very nice. They make sure everybody gets along, and the staff is just magnificent.

Village Gate of Farmington was lovely. As a matter of fact, I have picked out a place there and put money down because I really liked it that much. I had to renege on that deal, but I really liked that place, that's why I put my money down. I was going to settle there. The food wasn't great though, that's the only area of that tour that I wasn't very keen on. The facility was clean and inviting, and they tried to make it look homey.
