I would ask- What the costs are and how does the dining room work? Here you sit where ever there is an open seat, not assigned. There are many events so you get to meet different people. Lots of fun exercise programs.

I would highly recommend Sturges Ridge of Fairfield to others. The staff is very friendly and caring. I feel like I'm part of the community every time that I visit. The nursing team informs me of all changes in my father's health on the same day and provide regular general status of his care needs, whether there is a change or not. The meals are no worse or better than any other facility I looked at, but the facility itself is in top shape compared to others at a similar price range. All care options and levels are…

Everything has been wonderful so far for my 92 year old loved one. She was living alone in Brooklyn without anyone to care for her. She now has a lot of mental stimulation and care. She loves the food and the care seems great to me. The price is expensive, but at her stage of life worth it. It is a nice, clean and bright facility and is just the right size -- not too big where she could be lost or too small. I would recommend this facility to others.
