My step mom has lived here for about seven years, and generally, Edgehill is fine…read more But I witnessed a very disturbing interaction with another resident. While at the gym today, a very infirmed man had trouble and was in pain to the point of nearly fainting. I asked if he needed help since he could barely stand even with a walker. I looked around the Ground floor for help, but there was no one. I recommended that he press his emergency pendent, which he did. No one came. After five minutes, still no one came. More time passed. Still no one. I decided to go upstairs to the main desk to say someone needed help in the gym. They said they were aware of the emergency call but could not locate him. I then went downstairs and noticed a woman had finally arrived. However, she was rude, and ignored his request for a wheelchair, and began for forcefully push him backwards on his walker. When he mentioned his frustration about not being found after pushing the pendent, she just responded, "I'm here now." I said she arrived only because of me notifying the front desk, and she again slightly angrily repeated her statement. I was appalled at her attitude, but more importantly, her ignoring his request for a wheelchair, which he clearly needed. I went upstairs to reflect what I witnessed and to complain. I was then introduced to a manager. I said that I would hate to have my 84 year old mother treated this way if she had an emergency.

From Albert who's like a personal concierge eager to help to Gaye and all the people in nursing to Jessica and others in food service are amazing. Peace of mind that's she's well taken care of.

Residents at Sunshine Senior Residence in Stamford, CT, receive that care and more from the amazing caregivers at their assisted living facilities. With private rooms, 24-hour care, and warming floor plans, seniors have never felt more at home. Located in quiet and private residential communities, these senior care facilities offer many amenities at their two locations, Fox Hill Residence and Lake Claire Residence. Rooms are outfitted with state of the art CO2, smoke, and fire detectors, individual control of the room's heating and cooling system, 24-hour monitoring by staff and security cameras, safety rails for residents with limited mobility, a registered nurse with 24/7 on-call availability, and more. Their two assisted living facilities are located in areas easily accessible for family but far enough away that there aren't the same distractions as those built near or in urban areas. With a limited amount of rooms, they foster a home-like, family-friendly atmosphere. Pets are welcome as well, so residents never have to feel isolated or alone. No matter what you're look for from an assisted living facility, you'll find their facilities offer everything you need from a caring and welcoming senior care facility...

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.

There were several incidents--he needed the bedpan and they took so long bringing it to him that he messed the bed. Then the aide yelled at HIM because he made more work for her! He went for a whole day without getting any water and when he would ask, they would act annoyed like he was bothering them. We had to repeatedly call the supervisor. The last call resulted in our not speaking with the supervisor, but a nurse, Renee. I have never been spoken to so rudely and unprofessionally in my 42 years of doing business. She wouldn't even let me (or my sister) finish a sentence without going on some unintelligible rant. Our elder family members are at the mercy of these people. They are uncaring, unsympathetic, unprofessional, RUDE, and supposed to be taking care of them. However, the physical therapy team is excellent. It's too bad that the majority of time they spend is with the problematic staff members.

Any time we came to visit, there was a happy buzz in the air. Not only is every single person on staff highly trained and always upbeat, but the facility is very pretty, nicely decorated and cozy, inside and out. Benchmark helped us get a speedy move-in date, and did everything they could to keep our mother, who was in memory care, busy and feeling loved. We were delighted by the constant array of events that were planned for the residents. One of our favorites was the Brazilian jazz lunch that had a huge live band a buffet to fit the theme. Many people got up to dance and all the residents were smiling. We noticed that all the staffers went out of their way to talk to all residents in the halls when passing by - always sharing a witty line to help the residents feel a part of a larger community. We feel it takes a special understanding of this community to do a great job and it comes from the top down. The company does a fine job on all levels. Highly recommended! Thank you again to all at Benchmark for taking great care of our mother and giving our family peace of mind during a difficult time. As they say, it takes a village- and Benchmark is best village.
