The care is great and they have excellent activities. I can't think of any ways they could improve. What we like most about Seabury is the staff. They're always very upbeat and attentive. I'm not there all...

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.
