My parents were determined to live in their big, old house as long as possible and they did, well…read moreinto their 90s. My mother's sudden illness and my father's ongoing decrease in mobility created the situation that they could no longer live in a multi story house independently. We were so fortunate that they had looked into Brightview on New Canaan a month or so before my mother's illness. Within two weeks of the decision to move, and a week after my mother's return from the hospital, they were moved into a bright and sunny 2 bedroom apartment at Brightview. It was an emotional roller coaster for them and it took a team approach by the rest of the family to get all the furniture and their belongings moved in. The staff at Brightview are incredible and make sure that my parents feel valued and are safe and happy. Michele was indispensable in making the transition as smooth as possible. While my parents miss their house and all the living that went on it for 57 years, they now call Brightview their home. They have been there about a month. On my recent visit, I took them around town on errands. Upon return to Brightview and entering their apartment each time, they're expressions were of familiarity and contentment. They were home. We highly recommend Brightview on New Canaan as a loving place to live.

For the $$$ the residents spend to live there I would expect much more. * more 'professional' CNA's (that need to do their job when needed rather than not responding to.call for help requests from residents) * more food as they seem to have cut back and often run out * Better kitchen Manager * more activities and choices for residents as they become bored *. Better Maintenance Manager .. lots of problems that need to be addressed and the Manager becomes frustrated and unhelpful and rude.

My wife and I had more than 40 years of wonderful living in near by Old Greenwich when our lives…read morewere changed by her increasing challenges. Upon the recommendation of medical professionals my daughter and I embarked upon a search for the best possible answer for the help we need. We found it at Atria Stamford. After some months I can say without reservation that this has been a quality of life saver for us. Staff members from Denese the Manager to Frank, France and many others. Everyone is so patient and care oriented. This place is superb.

After 50 years in their beloved home it became obvious that my parents would do better in an…read moreassisted living facility. It was a daunting and emotionally difficult task for everyone in the family. Thank goodness for Atria! Our first interaction was with Frank Mastrone, the Community Sales Director. Frank listened attentively and understood our challenge. It was clear that he wanted a positive experience for my parents. There was no pressure or pushy sales pitches and we all felt comfortable throughout the process. I'll start with the facility: it's beautiful. The large and nicely appointed lobby opens on to the lounge, which in turn opens to the garden. Besides seating areas and paths around the flower beds, the garden has a fountain, koi pond and play area for the grandkids. It's lovely. The dining room is bright, spacious and the flowers and table linens give a sense of elegance. And the food! Wow! They had us at the appetizer. In addition to the dining room, there's a nice bistro with sandwiches, salads and snacks. We looked at one and two bedroom apartments as well as a studio. All were bright, fresh, airy and nicely furnished. My parents selected a west facing one bedroom unit and their sunset view is amazing. My dad enjoys the afternoon games and both enjoy the exercise and tai chi classes. They haven't yet availed themselves of the movie theater (super comfy) where there's a daily matinee and evening show, but they have enjoyed the concerts and live performances. Everyone on staff is friendly, knowledgeable and very caring with the residents. The nursing staff is attentive and really on top of the details; I'm very grateful for their care. Denese Brooks, the Executive Director, takes a personal interest in the family's experience and has been very helpful in figuring out logistical issues. I'm so happy that my folks are at Atria! I live on the opposite coast, so knowing that they're safe and well cared for is a big relief. More important, however, they are happy, comfortable, enjoying themselves and making new friends. It's pretty great. Olga P.

On the inside the floors are very scratched and smells very unpleasant. The dining room is very clean but the wall paper is peeling and the ice machine does not work. Took a tour of the place about 2 weeks ago , and absolutely disgusting. Even a lamp in the back of the dining room is broken and was just glued together, i was in such disbelief. Now to the staff, The aides are WONDERFUL, they greet you very nicely and they seem to always be busy. this is quickly ruined by rude administration. Penny was screaming at her assistant and a obnoxiously rude Tammi. No sense of leadership or compassion for the job. seem to care more about themselves than the residents or place itself. Brochure claims they have a gym and computer center for resident but it looks like its used all for storage. DO NOT BOTHER LOOKING AT THIS PLACE.

My mom is back and please do not hesitate to take your loved ones to this social center because the experience is beyond measure.
