GARDENS OF HARTFORD (THE)

I am a caregiver and I know several people who live at this home. The staff is wonderful and treat the people who live here like family. The person who helps the families make the hard decision to move into this new home is Juliann and she is wonderful, patient, kind and really listens to all of the concerns. No place is perfect, but this is a place that I don't need to unnecessarily worry about my friends care! Thank you!!

When my dad got to the point where it wasn’t safe to be at home anymore my family and I researched a lot of different places but knew that the Gardens was a great option, down the street from my mom, and right next to their church. My dad also knew some people from the community. All of these things in addition to the fact that it was a faith-based community run by Christian Family Solutions made it clearly the right choice. I feel like there’s always a level of skepticism around any type of care facility- I was a little nervous about how he would adjust to living there and if there would be concerns with the kind of care he would receive down the road. After a few weeks it became so obvious that it was such a blessing for him to live there. I could tell that the caregivers truly cared about him, his health and overall well-being. They would interact and care for him like a friend. They would joke around with him and make him feel valued as a person. He was clearly happy. They handled his complex medical conditions well, his health and mobility actually improved after living there for a few months. After living there for some time I asked him once as we drove past his old house if he felt like the house was his home or if the Gardens felt like his home, he said the Gardens. That shows how much he enjoyed living there. My one wish is that they would expand their care services in the future. My dad eventually had to move, only due to the fact that he needed more care than it was safe for them to provide based on being an RCAC. I will always look back on his time at the Gardens in such a positive way, will always remember the kindness the staff and residents showed to my dad and our whole family. Their work is so obviously Christ-centered and based on love. They set a true example for all other care facilities.

Wonderful and caring place! My uncle lived at the Garden for 2.5 years until he passed away in August 2022. We could not have asked for a better staff or facility to have taken care of him. He was moved in during the Covid 19 pandemic and they were so helpful. They communicated well with us about the restrictions and did an exceptional job keeping the residents safe. The staff was great with him and our family. He enjoyed all the workers and bonded well with them. The facility is also very nice and modern, and he enjoyed his private apartment while also getting to go out and have dinner with his "neighbors" and play bingo and games. If we were concerned, or he wasn’t answering his phone, we could call at any time and they would know exactly who he was and go check on him immediately. He enjoyed that the facility was Christian based and the church services helped keep his faith strong. Because of the great caring staff at the gardens, and hospice care, my uncle was able to stay where he was happy and comfortable till the end. Our family will forever be grateful to the Gardens and would highly recommend them.

My grandmother has been living at The Gardens for a couple years now and we are so thankful she can call this place home. Her apartment is spacious and the surrounding area is very nice. Plus, there's a wonderful event space for our family to all meet together. Highly recommend!

After a thorough search of assisted living centers in the area we settled on the Gardens for our mom and its been a great decision. The staff is extremely professional, kind and courteous. She loves the food and her apartment is very pleasant to be in. I'd highly recommend it.
