Thank you RIdge Crest
Our hope was always that our Mom, age 95, would be able to remain living with family for her whole life. After 3 hospitalizations in a 7 week time frame, we could no longer provide the skilled nursing care that she needed on a regular basis. She spent the last three months of her life at Ridge Crest at Meadow Ridge. There is no way to express the incredible gratefulness our family has for Ridge Crest. It was difficult to watch our Mom's health decline. But the care she received there gave us comfort and peace of mind. Every staff member, whether nurses, doctors, aides or wait staff treated our Mom with compassion, patience, dignity and respect. And this was not unique to her as I observed this over and over again as I watched them interact with the other residents there. Over the last ten years my Mom had to go for short stays at three other rehab places--two in Pennsylvania and one other in Connecticut. So we have a frame of reference for comparison. Ridge Crest is so superior in every way. If you aren't able to keep your loved one at home, this is where you want them to be. Thank-you Ridge Crest for everything you did for our Mom.

Recent happy Meadow Ridge arrivals.
We are recent arrivals at Meadow Ridge and are extremely pleased with our apartment, the friendly residents, the food, the friendly staff, the activities, the beautiful grounds and views, and the overall appearance of the common areas. There is a magnificent plant-filled atrium with water features. It's an indoor garden for the colder weather and a place to socialize at any time. You have to take a tour to appreciate it.

Meadow Ridge; an inviting community and home
Meadow Ridge is a wonderful and inclusive community where people engage with each other and are offered multiple activities and special classes or presentations daily. Set in a tranquil greenspace area between Ridgefield, Danbury and Norwalk, all amenities needed are really quite 'local'. Doctors, Hospitals, Shopping, Dining, Gourmet Groceries, Culture, Ridgefield Playhouse, Museums, Historic sites and Nature Preserves are all within a quick trip in the car. It's delightful to be so close to all things that make life more enjoyable. We chose Meadow Ridge after viewing more than twenty other Senior Communities up the east coast. The difference we found was that Meadow Ridge holds a quality of people and community and active interests that the other communities did not match in the least. Another amazing factor that stood out to us is the natural light quality+quantity in the architectural blueprint that Meadow Ridge so intelligently designed upon construction. All apartments and common areas are generously flooded with natural light, establishing a mental and physical wellness alongside vibrant, natural environments throughout the Meadow Ridge community. And through those open windows and vistas are the most beautifully landscaped gardens and flower beds. Meadow Ridge was the last place we toured during our search, and I'll never forget the feeling once we got once back in our car after the tour. It was a feeling of relief, to finally have found a community that could be a comfortable and inclusive 'home'.

It’s our sincere hope that any potential resident or guest to our community leaves with the same impression you had following your visit. We know there are plenty of quality retirement options, but it’s humbling to know we rose to the top of a fairly extensive list. We hope every day you spend with us is filled with new adventures, new friends and plenty of natural light! It’s a privilege to have you as part of the Meadow Ridge family.

Love One Is Happy Here
We had to move my mother is law to this community due to lack of care in the previous one she was at. So far she seems to be doing well with her move here. She is happy, and if she is happy we are all happy.

I’m sorry to hear the circumstance behind your mother-in-law joining us, but we’re delighted to have her. If there’s any additional support we can provide to help with this transition, or you or your family have any questions, don’t hesitate to give me a call, or stop by our campus and see me in person.

glad I made the move
Moved here to Indpendent Living apartment 7 years ago after my husband died. Moved from house in nearby community that was too big and too worrisome for just one person. It was difficult sorting through what to take and what to leave behind, but I did it with the help of my daughters and their families. Now I am in a safe, comfortable place with just the things I value most - including a baby grand piano and my favorite books. I have made great new friends and I stay connected to old friends in my former neighborhood. Life is good here; spring is beautiful; I am content.

Stuck in a place she hates after they got all her money
I had not visited my aunt here for about 18 months. What a difference a year and a half makes! The place has gone downhill fast. It is so dirty and the maintenance is terrible. I called to ask that someone come to fix her leaky sink. I was there an entire week and no one came. Her friends told me that same thing-that no one comes to fix anything when they ask for it. They also said there is a real problem with bugs. There are a lot of staff that have left over the last year, too. People my aunt really liked. Of course, they made sure they got all her money coming in the door, so she can't move anywhere else. She is stuck there with no hope for any improvement. I feel so sorry for her and her friends.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know the Connecticut regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Connecticut regulations for Assisted Living.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Tour the location: Touring helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
