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.

These are especially difficult times but knowing our Dad is at Crosby is such a relief to us. We look forward post-vaccine with the resumption of activities, the gym and guest lecturers. Thank you Crosby Commons!

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.

The upside of that is better quality in both food and service and programs. The residents are upscale and hip . I actually leave with a smile on my face usually not the case when you visit other facilities. The brunches pre Covid are amazing with unlimited mimosas even though my 93 year old mom never has more than one. My mom loves it there and that's the most important thing. 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.

In mid summer my mother became extremely ill in her hometown of TR NJ and after a lengthy…read morehospitalization and rehab we were forced to make the difficult decision to relocate her up to CT near us. My mother had no input in the selection due to her illness and because we told the rehab facility we were not interested in leaving her in NJ they decided to discharge her with little notice to our family. Dylan was extremely accommodating and met my sister and I on a Sunday. He arranged for someone from Sunrise to observe and document her condition at the NJ rehab and jumped hoops to help us move her quickly. Yes, there are a few unfavorable reviews we saw on the web but we checked the DPH licensing web and checked on things like service or health violations as part of our decision to move mom to BG. They bent a rule and let us move her on a holiday weekend since we had to get her in sooner when the NJ facility gave us two days notice of a discharge date of Friday before labor day. As my mother has improved, she has come to consider this her home with new friends. The staff have been kind and considerate of her recovery and care. They give her choices in her wardrobe selection and activities since she is wheelchair bound at this point. She loves her meals and feels happy, much happier as time passes, AJ, the ED has answered each and every question that we come up with, is very responsive and the receptionists are so helpful. We decided at the 11th hour of closing up her house to bring up her kitty after the first month who is also elderly and the staff has been wonderful with Timmy. I hope in considering choosing BG you will visit and check all sources, talk to staff and tour the facility. You will see for yourself that many factors go into a big decision with what is best for your parent or family member. We have found all the staff to be courteous and considerate and right down to the Director of Facilities, who responds quickly to complaints if any. The fact that Mom is close to myself, my two other siblings and we can see she is happy is a bonus. That and the friends I have made with other resident's family members. For our family it is a win win all the way around. And, then....let me tell you all about Bear........

Of course, this is always a difficult decision for the family, but, Ridgefield Station has made this process and my father's transition as easy as possible.

All of the staff that deals with my father (and by extension, the family) has been very kind and caring. While there are many factors that go into making a decision of this magnitude, I would say that for the items Ridgefield Station controls, they do an outstanding execution of a tough job.

The team is caring, competent, and go above and beyond in their kindness to this population. I "pop in" often, always seeing residents engaged in activities, or relaxing in front the of fireplace (electric, of course), or sitting together in the dining room. The Compass Care facility is bright, modern, beautifully furnished, and full of natural light. Unlike others I toured, there no dark hallways or corners with residents slumped on sofas and chairs with no supervision. I cannot imagine a better place for these very special loved ones. I am an extremely demanding person, especially when it come to family, aren't we all, and Ridgefield Station is tops in my book.

Mom moved into Carriage Green at Milford in April 2023. My sister and I had checked out a few other…read morefacilities in the area before we chose Carriage Green. We are very happy we did. Mom had lived in the house my dad built for her for over 70 years, so we were a bit anxious about her transition to a new "home". She loved it from day one. She was introduced to other residents who quickly became her friends. They enjoyed all their meals together. She participated in the activities, of which there were plenty. Ice cream socials, Wii Bowling, scenic rides, and Family Feud, just to name a few. Her favorite was the morning exercises. In January, Mom turned 100. We were able to have access to one of the rooms to have a family birthday party for her. Then, when the facility had their monthly birthday celebration, the staff went out of their way to focus on Mom. Cake, decorations, entertainment and even a proclamation from the Mayor of Milford. I can't say enough good things about the staff. Everyone of them did their best to be sure Mom was comfortable and happy. Mom recently passed, but before she did, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, was there to make it a beautiful transition. Staff and residents were so attentive, caring and loving up until the very end and after. I will miss the friends I made there. I highly recommend Carriage Green for you or your loved one
