We love Benchmark at Stamford, Ct. (formally Sunrise) and would recommend it to anyone! Our…read moremother lived there for 9 months before her passing. 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. Fondly, the Haydens

I had a great experience hiring a caregiver for my dad with dementia for about 6 months. I…read moreinterviewed a few companies and BrightStar was the clear stand-out given the level of oversight - especially since I live across the country . It was the only company that had a supervisor periodically visit to observe firsthand how things were going. Plus, it was reassuring to know that an RN oversees the caregivers. The caregiver placed with my dad, Alisha W., was truly amazing. She was extremely patient and upbeat when faced with challenging circumstances. She had such a great attitude and went above and beyond, whether it was taking him on fun outings, staying late to take him to a doctor's appointment (even when I said no problem to send him home in a taxi), or noticing when he had a new medical issue that needed attention. She was able to establish rapport and a meaningful relationship with him when most of his other relationships fell away due to his condition. She even managed to make him feel comfortable using some personal care products for the first time, which was quite a feat.I feel so lucky to have Alisha in my dad's life! The company was also efficient and communicative with scheduling information and billing. Top-notch.

This would be my second time searching for a place for dad. The first search was done on my own…read morewith only referrals. The referrals didn't match my criteria and it was a daunting ordeal to go through alone. It is now six months after finding the first place for dad, to now have to do it all over again, as his condition has changed. Within the last six months, I received a call from Chris Curran, of CarePatrol, He talked in depth about CarePatrol, but I had already found a place and kept the contact information. At least, I thought I did... because I need to once again find another place for dad and I couldn't face doing the referral search again. So, with three days of diligently searching for a new facility and wishing, I hadn't misplaced that contact information... The phone rings! No kidding. It was Chris Curran, from CarePatrol. That call was more of a "LifePatrol", occurrence. It was a no-brainer and I explained in detail the criteria. He immediately set up two interviews with places that would be a potential fit for dad. He not only gave me the referrals... he met up with me at one of the locations. Wow! So, to sum it up... The second choice of location became the ideal place for dad and his needs. Mr. Chris Curran, of CarePatrol, came to my rescue at the right time. I'd probably still be searching on my own if it wasn't for him and his experience in the field. A HUGE, THANK YOU! Jacqueline -
