MiddleBrook Farms at Trumbull

We have had a great experience with assisted living at MiddleBrook Farms. [name removed] is awesome, great location, the facility is very clean, and the staff is friendly.

The staff are very dedicated to the residents happiness and comfort. The atmosphere is friendly. The food is excellent. I went to multiple places and this was more affordable and I liked the fact that there were lots of people around down on the first floor . Some participating in activities and others just sitting together. It was a friendly busy atmosphere.

My loved one likes the food. They have a lot of activites, and things to do. We picked this community because it was close, we were in a hurry to find a place, and they had good reviews. Their tranparency with prices/cost was not good. They were very expensive. They need to improve on letting people know the actual price upfront, opposed to changing it afterwards. Other than that, he care was good and they called when it was any problems.

Middlebrook Farms at Trumbull is in a nice, quiet residential area. There is plenty of parking and it is easy to get to. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and they take very good care of their residents. My mom is a foodie - there are 2 sittings for the meals and she says the food is cold when it is served and sometimes they do not have enough of the specials. There are some things that she likes and some things that she doesn't. Overall I would recommend Middlebrook Farms to others.

I would recommend this community to others. I really like pleased with the way the community is run and how my loved one is taken care of. My loved one does like a couple of activities, and is happy with the activities provided.

This is a wonderful place for your older family member to live out their older years in a place where they will be polite, friendly and keep their minds active. They have activities like singers, movies, veterans day celebrations, new year celebrations, cocktail hours and more to keep the residents busy and engaged at this community.

My father has resided here for 4 months. He lives in the Dementia ward. His caretakers are wonderful. They have concern for the well-being of their residents. They provide activities, music ,lunches out, and love. He is getting what we could not provide. Thank you

[Name removed] has had a successful transition. The staff at Middle Brook Farms is top notch - kind, responsive and attentive. It's very clean and the care has been great. Thank you!

Mom is very happy with her apartment, the dining room and especially all the fun activities. I'm glad she is in a safe and friendly environment. The staff is great.

When I originally spoke with the people from Middle Brook Farms I was in full on crisis mode. I had to find a place for my mom in only a few days and wasn't sure what to do next. Living and working in New York made everything even more difficult. Everyone I dealt with were absolutely wonderful! Although my mom was only going to be there for a thirty day respite they treated my mom and I like she was going to be permanent resident. They constantly called me to ask questions and keep me updated. My mom has been thriving since being there under the their excellent care and is going to miss it when she goes home soon. I would highly recommend Middle Brook to anyone looking for a warm, friendly place to call home and feel safe and well cared for. My sincerest thanks to everyone for all that was done for both mom and I.

My parent has received attentive care from many. However, he has multiple health issues and is in decline. I think the planning of his placement could have been clearer. We do appreciate assistance with many other issues though.

The layout of this facility is very cheery - the common spaces are light-filled, and encouraged lots of interaction for the residents, who all seemed rather contented and friendly. The Executive Director, Phil, was very helpful and patient in answering all our questions and concerns. The food ( we ate here twice) was very tasty, and they seem to have lots of attentive staff around - an important factor for us. We are looking forward to Mom's stay here.

So far, I have seen and felt nothing but the best of care given to my mother.

Very nice place. Liked the country kitchens on each floor. Did not have big enough apartments for mom. [removed]

My family and I researched and visited several assisted living communities in our area. The process can be overwhelming and exhausting. Upon entering Middlebrook Farms of Trumbull, we were welcomed and immediately put at ease. Their staff is genuinely friendly and caring. The environment is beautifully decorated and very clean. Our Dad has memory impairment and also requires assistance with personal care. The Harbor unit at Middlebrook Farms is specifically designed and staffed to meet his needs. The layout and design of the unit gives him a feeling of being more at home than in a facility. The staff are always present throughout the Harbor assisting residents or just spending time with them. There are activities scheduled from breakfast until dinner which are geared for the residents abilities. If Dad is not interested in participating in the activity, other staff are available to be with him and engage him in conversation or another activity. The staff are very patient with the residents- their training in Memory care shows! Before coming to stay at Middlebrook Farms, our Dad was in and out of nursing homes and hospitals several times. His transition to assisted living was complicated, however the Admissions team at Middlebrook Farms went above and beyond to coordinate with the other facilities and make his transfer as seem-less as possible. The Nurses and Admissions team stayed by our side as advocates, resources and support to get the proper plan and equipment in place for Dad. Before he moved in, we had a family care plan meeting with a member of every department present to create a comprehensive plan of care specific to his needs - which is being followed by the Harbor staff. The only item I caution on is watching for any added costs for specialty items - such as the thickened liquids that our dad requires in his diet. Those items are not added up-front however they are listed in the price guide provided with the admission paperwork. We are very happy that Dad is settled into the Harbor and is already getting involved with activities and adjusted well. I highly recommend going to their community and learning about their philosophy of care.

Our experience with MiddleBrook Farms has been a good one overall, it seems like a nice place. The staff here is friendly and professional, and they have a good amount of activities and services that they offer for the residents. The facility is well kept and clean, and it is nestled in a a nice looking neighborhood with plenty of trees and good places to walk, which was important to my loved one. I was hoping the community would be a bit more active, however. My loved one has a few memory issues and needed something a little more than independent living, but this place has a bit more of a nursing home feel than we were hoping for.

So far it's been great. It's clean and nice, and the staff is friendly. The food seems pretty good. There have been a few little hiccups, but nothing major. We like it so far, I would give them a five.

Warm, welcoming atmosphere with exceptional support staff.
