About Rivermere Senior Living of Brookfield

Filled with natural light, Charter Senior Living of Brookfield welcomes seniors to a spacious senior living community nestled between two lakes in Brookfield, Connecticut. The community hosts a variety of activities for seniors to maintain an active lifestyle with games like poker, chess, billiards, and more. An on-site fitness room, full-service salon, and bistro allow seniors to have a fulfilling lifestyle on the same campus. Natural light fills the spacious common room where residents can socialize by the cozy fireplace. Healthy meals are served in the modern restaurant-style dining room with comfortable booth seating available. In addition to dementia-friendly meals, seniors in the memory care neighborhood have access to stimulating life skills stations. Seniors in assisted living have a choice between spacious studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments. These apartments are pet-friendly with pet care available. Private and semi-private suite options are specifically designed for seniors with dementia. Round-the-clock care is provided by genuine caregivers with a licensed practical nurse and registered nurse on staff. Between emergency response systems and daily check-ins, seniors' overall well-being is prioritized. The community also helps family members who have witnessed their loved one’s dementia with Alzheimer’s support groups.

Very impressed with Charter

I give everything a 5. I was really impressed with Charter when I was visiting and now that my sister has been there a month, I'm still very impressed and satisfied with the choice. When a new person moves into Charter, they really work hard to make that person feel comfortable and welcomed. Helping them to integrate into all that Charter has to offer and showing the friendliness of staff and other residents to feel like part of the community.

Hawaiian in Connecticut.

I'd give them 4 stars. Food is 50-50 someday better than others. Staff some are outstanding, CNA's are not that great. Very clean. Activity director is 5*! Exercise is great. The building is very nice. 90% positive. Upper management very open to fix a problem.

Struggles with memory care

Overall, there have been some challenges with communication and timely follow-through on certain requests and services, as well as occasional concerns with coordination of care. That said, the aides and nurses have been excellent - they are very caring, attentive, and supportive. The food has also been very good. The memory care setting may not be the right fit for every resident, especially for those who are more socially engaged, as opportunities for meaningful interaction can vary.

Charter Senior Living

The place is beautifully decorated and that makes my mom feel special. They had a new "fall recognition system" put in to all of the apartments and we really liked that.
