Recent reviews for memory care in Packardville

The Atrium at Rocky Hill

4.4
My dad liked being at the atrium. I thought he would have received better health care, but I guess that's not what they do. My dad contracted shingles on his face, and it took a while to be treated correctly. Overall, it was a much better place than the nursing home he is in now.

Hoffman Summerwood Community in West Hartford, CT

5.0
My parents are very happy and comfortable at the Hoffman community. The place is clean and well maintained. Everyone there is so nice, from the residents to the staff members. The food is good and they have so many activities.

Sunrise of Leominster

4.5
The staff seems to be happy, friendly, responsive. (They are not CNA's, and some additional training to help with my dad has been needed). The food is good, tasty, but the portions are smallish on the AL side (when my mom was there for respite). They are flexible with meals for my dad in regards ...
