The Watermark at 3030 Park, a CCRC in Bridgeport, CT
4.1

From the day I arrived at Watermark 3030, I have nothing but good things to say. My apartment was beautifully arranged. Everyone on the Staff was friendly and helpful. The meals are excellent & the grounds are lovely for walking. Every effort was made to welcome me. I am thriving at 3030 Watermark. We have a exercise room and a pool and instructors to help us be safe. Our front desk people are friendly and answer all our questions and concerns.

The Fountains at RiverVue in Tuckahoe, NY
4.0

It's a lovely community because the residents are fairly active and cognitively sharp. The dining can be improved. The food choices could be improved. The offer trips and activities. They offer exercise and bingo as well as other other options for activities. They do good with transportation for their residents. The staff are lovely and very helpful.

Maplewood at Darien
4.6

The Maplewood at Darien was the perfect solution for my 89 year old mom who was unable to live alone. In addition to having memory loss , my mom struggles with anxiety issues, the kind, compassionate and competent staff have embraced my sweet mom and created a community of care and purpose. I drop in all times of day and early evening and find my easily distractable mother engaged and comfortable. I highly recommend this very warm, professional environment to anyone who is struggling with the very difficult decision to find the perfect place for their loved one.
