Review for The Cottage at Litchfield Hills

The memory care is newly remodeled and the staff are wonderful. The room was freshly carpeted and clean. The only complaint is sometimes it's hard to get access to the memory care floor as a visitor if the front desk isn't staffed.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

The building itself is nice, however after hearing what the directors say when they think no one is paying attention is absolutely crazy. While I was visit up in memory care I witnessed a nursing directions scream down the hallway “wh**e” in front of residents. I was in my family members room and was absolutely shocked. My family member has been here for a long time and after visiting so many time you hear things that go on in the facility. The CNAS are amazing and that is one reason we are keeping them there. I wi…

The rooms are spacious, with everything needed and in good repair. The large windows look out onto beautiful scenery. The food is tasty, nutritious and the menu is varied. Breakfast is cooked to order. The same staff waits on you at each meal in a spacious dining room that overlooks a forest and a brook. Activities are fun, Bingo is popular, but so are arts and crafts and exercise class. The staff is kind and attentive. They will transport you to appointments. The Cottage has been wonderful for my family member, go…

A nice friendly place

My parents chose the Cottage because of the friendly atmosphere more than anything else. We had toured other assisted living facilities. Some were quite opulent, but none had the friendly engaged atmosphere that the Cottage has. Residents spend a great deal of time outside of their private apartments socializing. I have never entered the building and found the halls and common rooms empty. I certainly saw empty rooms and hallways in the other facilities that I have entered.

Caring, Kind, and Compassionate

We had to make the decision to put my mom into an assisted living facility after she began rapidly declining with dementia. I wish we were able to get her into The Cottage sooner! The first location, while beautiful, in an affluent area, and with all sorts of bells and whistles, unfortunately offered extremely sub-par care. Our experience with The Cottage has been the polar opposite! While once again, a beautiful facility with all sorts of bells and whistles, the care offered is amazing! They check in on her freq…
