I thought they were helpful and it was a nice facility. They answered all the questions I had and showed me around. It was nice to see others interacting and I liked the fact that meals were not cafeteria style but they bring the food to the table. They seem to have plenty of activities long standing staff and it was clean. A very good atmosphere

I choose the Waterford at Hartford for my cousin.

I was looking for a place for my cousin that was close to me. A friend's mother lives there and they're happy with it. My cousin has a nice large room, a window facing a field, we saw a family of deers once, wow. They do activities, music, exercising, trips. I take her out sometimes, she enjoys Culver's, etc.. She has a refrigerator that I requested, so she can have things she likes, apples, oranges, cheese, etc. I visit once or twice a week, she is happy. She told me she likes it there. The staff are happy and hel

The perfect place for my mom

I highly recommend The Waterford at Hartford. My mom has been a resident at The Waterford for several years and I consider her and our entire family very lucky. They are so attentive to her needs as they change over time, they have a wide variety of activities for her to participate in so she can be as social as she would like. The facility is always clean, the staff is wonderful and professional and my mom always raves about the food.

The evening meal is never at 5:00 always at 5:15-5:25. Everyone could be more friendly, including office. In summer the front front door patio is always a mess. It should be cleaned visitors must think "If it is a mess outside what does the inside look like.

My experience at Waterford has generally been a food one with a few minter exception like trash pick up, laundry items missing and too many interruption in my apartment. In one invert pride, so its rather difficult to be social with so many people.
