Atria Stamford

I had such an amazing experience at Atria Stamford. From the moment I walked in, through my visit. The residents all were engaging and appeared very happy. Similar for the staff, as most seem to have been with the community for several years. I saw more staff and their badges say multiple years, unlike the other I visited. It felt natural here, other places it felt like the visit was staged. The place was active, the calendar I saw was unbelievable. I got a chance to taste the food, it was excellent. One place was very expensive and new, however hardly any staff or residents in the visit. Atria Stamford is extremely reasonable and the entire process was top notch. I highly recommend this Community, it is the place I chose.

I visited for my Dad. I was so impressed from the beginning of the visit and through the process. Everyone was so pleasant, including the residents. I couldn't help but notice the tenure of the staff, other places I visited have none of that. It was the difference to me, knowing that my loved one would be cared and serviced by people who have been doing it in the same community, for so long. I was advised to view their Facebook and WOW!! They truly know how to engage their residents!!

From the first moment I contacted them, [name removed] was such a big help. [Name removed] was able to provide very good advice about assisted living in general. My loved one is getting so much more than another family member in another community. I no longer have to worry about my loved one being alone. The food has been excellent for my loved one. The service has been a little slower, due to staff turnover. Current movies, art classes, movement classes, field trip, singing class, parties, and more are some activities for the residents to choose from. The community was good at communicating with the family and protecting the residents during the pandemic.

My husband stayed at Atria Stamford for a month and could not stop talking about how wonderful it was and how nice the staff was, in particular the Community Sales Director who was our initial contact and who made it all happen. The facilities are outstanding - more like a hotel than a retirement home, and the daily activities have something for everybody. My husband is looking forward already to the next time that he can stay there! It gave me great comfort to know that he was taken care of so well while I traveled and visited family.

My husband and I were viewing senior living communities in Stamford for our Uncle. We had the pleasure of touring Atria Stamford with one of their Sales Associates, [name removed]. [She] was so professional, knowledgeable and helpful. She had such patience with us and all our (unending) questions! We thought we’d need to see at least 3 or 4 communities before making a choice, but Atria was so welcoming, it was an easy decision. We know our Uncle is in a safe, clean and fun environment. There is so much to do at Atria, and our Uncle is enjoying the food choices in their main dining room and their bistro. We are very thankful to [name removed] for helping us choose the best place for our Uncle.

Communication is something that could be improved on. If I reach out I do not always get an immediate response and I have to follow up a lot of the times. However I do feel like my loved one is in very good care and there are many positives about Atria Stamford.

Great place to call home for seniors

A large attendance at all activities. Woolen having so much fun.

Amazing place

Moved my mom out of Atria Stamford to have her closer to family. It was a tough decision, because it was a great place for her. I would recommend this Atria highly; wonderful and caring staff, nice and varied activities and very nice residents. A bittersweet move.

I am so impressed by the entire experience, looking for a place for my Dad. From the initial conversation with the caring advisor, the tour of the beautiful commu city, the feeling of love and vibrancy in the building, the food I tasted and people I met. The Executive Director was so informative and passionate....easy to choose this as the place, nothing else compared.

This place is the best love coming into work seeing all of the amazing residents and knowing each others names. Wonderful community to live.

If you're talking about a patient who has dementia, then having 24/7 care in an independent care unit is not nearly as good as the care they can receive in a memory care unit. In independent living, your loved one would be in an apartment in front of a TV all day. But in memory care at Atria, they get them up and moving, going on walks, keeping their minds occupied. My loved one seems fairly happy there so far. And it's much more cost effective as well.

It is a beautiful high rise. The apartments shave recently been renovated and are spacious. Initially the food was very good, and now the food isn't as good as my loved one first got there. There is a lack of communication and responsiveness from the staff to the family. The caregivers seem to be doing a great job. The nursing staff isn't available 24 hours a day. They don't have coverage morning to night. The nurse is inconsistent with the time they are here. If your loved one needs more care with nursing, I would be concerned with a loved one being here with those needs.

I would tell others it is a nice place to go. It is in a central location in Stamford. It is an expensive community. They have exercise activities, singing, movies, bingo, board games, and more for the residents to choose from.

Dear [name removed] and his Atria kitchen staff: We all wish that we could all come in to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts... for the job you are all doing for us! We all know that you too have families and it is not so easy to come in every morning leaving behind your families. I wish we could just go in and hug each one of you for doing a magnificent job! May God bless you from every one of us! Love, [name removed] and the residents of Atria

I told the staff after I'd been living at Atria Stamford for a little while, "I'm in heaven and I haven't even died!" Everything here is wonderful.

I have been here since January 2019 and have participated in many activities and enjoyed them all. The staff of Engage Life are fabulous. We have a great variety of activities and I enjoy the themed happy hours and all the exercise.

I would tell my friends that it is good place to live in. This community is more for those that are independent that those who need more assistance. The food was good. The room was a little outdated, but it was a nice size. The director at the end of my loved one's time there, than the one that was there when my loved one moved in.

Our loved one lived there and the experience for her was just awful. The individual who ran the memory care unit that interviewed her said our loved one needed to be there when she actually didn't. However this community was kept very clean. The overall layout of this community is very nice. There are two floors for the memory care, but only two aids there to watch over the residents. We felt that was just not enough and they needed to bring on more aids. The activities from our understanding were okay, our loved one just did not always participate in them. The rooms on the memory care side were more like a studio apartment. There was no kitchen facility in it, but it did have a full bathroom. According to our loved one she was not a big fan of the food.
