Shady Oaks Assisted Living Review

It was a difficult decision to place my Mom in an assisted living facility. However, Shady Oaks has proven to be an outstanding facility under the watchful care of its owner [name removed]. [name removed] works tirelessly to ensure a safe and secure environment. He and his dedicated staff are extremely compassionate to the needs of each resident while keeping family members apprised on the welfare of their loved one. I would highly recommend Shady Oaks for your special loved one. You will be glad you did.... Read more

About the facility Shady Oaks Assisted Living

Shady Oaks provides strong nursing in a cozy and loyal home. Bristol Press readers voted us Best of Bristol in 2022, 2021, & 2020. We average 4.9/5 stars in 70+ online reviews. We are a smart alternative to 24hr. home care and nursing homes.

Strong Nursing: We excel at high end nursing, dementia, and hospice care. Our supervising nurse has 35+ years experience. We have an aide-to-resident-ratio of about 1:8 days, 1:20 nights.

Cozy: Our home has about 42 residents. We provide full services, with easy all-inclusive pricing. Rooms come furnished and decorated. We feel like a real warm home, not like a cold hotel.

Loyal: We personalize care and recreation. We fill our home with loving staff and volunteers. Since 2016, we only lost 3 residents to money. In VA & CT aid, residents get up to $4k+ monthly.

Unique: The owner is a Marine Iraq veteran with a Harvard PhD. Both his grandmothers lived at Shady Oaks. He lives next door. Residents and families have come to us from 62+ CT towns.

exceptional place

In looking for a place to make my dads last home, my siblings and I didn't hesitate picking Shady Oaks after meeting Tyson and his staff. They immediately became family and went above and beyond to make the transition for my dad coming from the Cape. Even though he was only there 2 weeks, he loved it, loved the staff and particularly loved his time spent with [name removed], talking about being in the service, their experiences at Yale and so much more. He was happy and loved his new room and everyone there. I can never repay their kindness but will always remember them all fondly for treating my dad like their own family. I would recommend them very highly.

Cozy and caring environment

We looked at many facilities for my 95 year old Mom. When we visited Shady Oaks we immediately felt the small, cozy and homey environment was perfect fit. It's been family owned for decades and present owner [Removed] is hands on, always present...willing to do anything for the residents. The nursing staff communicates often with us. Doctors visit regularly. No bureaucracy to get answers. Mom likes the meals and activities. Highly recommended.

Everyone was extremely welcoming & helpful. Tyson spent so much time learning about my families needs/desires to see if Shady Oaks was a good fit. Facility is very homey.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shady Oaks Assisted Living

Shady Oaks Assisted Living offers Studio and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Shady Oaks Assisted Living 8.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
