I have been here since the beginning of August. I came here in very poor health and spent my first months going in and out of the hospital. I required nurses to administer my medications morning and evening and they had to monitor and empty my catheter bags. During the last months I have joined your balance training program. Ashley and Mike run a wonderful program. They are very conscious of the needs of those of us who participate and go out of their way to be helpful. In the last few weeks I have graduated from a walker to a cane. I no longer require help from the nurses, and I take care of my own meds. Much of the credit for my improving health goes to Ashley and Mike. I certainly intend to stay with the exercise program. Sincerely, Donn

When my mom's ability to continue to live in her own home became problematic, a good friend urged me to read Being Mortal. As well as it being a powerful and engaging book in its own right, the concept of focusing on purpose and meaning – as defined by the elder her or his self-resonated powerfully with me. I learned that many places use the designation "assisted living" but were really primarily nursing homes. Gawande visited several places that had worked hard to create communities where seniors of varying levels of dependency could age in place. When I read about and visited Stonebrook, it was clear it was exactly the kind of "place that is right" for a grand lady like my mom. The whole Vozzola family is deeply grateful to have found such a caring community for mom.

When my father decided he was ready to move into an assisted living community, he chose Stonebrook Village in Windsor Locks. Both he and I could not be happier with his choice. Everything about Stonebrook has exceeded our expectations. I live 2,000 miles away, but visit frequently. During my visits, I make use of one of the Stonebrook guest rooms and take most of my meals with the residents. This has given me an opportunity to sample the daily happenings at Stonebrook first hand over the course of a year. The apartments and common areas are bright, clean and well appointed. The food and dining service is more than satisfactory. The activities calendar is always full with a variety of activities each day for the residents’ enjoyment and socializing. Transportation is readily available for field trips, shopping and doctor’s appointments. The Stonebrook nurses and nurses’ aides provide my father with excellent care. Since moving in; his daily care needs have increased. The nursing staff have been alert to his changes and responded accordingly.

Over the course of my visits, I came to realize early on that what makes Stonebrook Village exceptional is that it truly is a community. I observed that the entire staff, from the Director to the housekeepers treat each resident with compassion and respect and as the individuals they are. Furthermore, I discerned a very high degree of socialization, caring and friendship between the residents. I don’t exaggerate when I say it feels like one big family when I visit. Without reservation, I can wholeheartedly recommend Stonebrook Village to anyone seeking an assisted living community.

I really have to congratulate you and your entire staff, on being very efficient, courteous, helpful, and very, very friendly.  I can leave to go back to Texas with a peace of mind that my mother, Cathy Cunningham is in safe, and very good hands. Thank you all once again a very heartfelt thank you.  I will see you again very soon.

Stonebrook is a beautiful place! We have been very impressed with the apartments, the dining room and meals as well as the wonderful staff and employees! We especially would like to compliment the manner in which Stonebrook has managed to maintain excellent communication with families and care of the residents during the COVID 19 pandemic. As a Nurse and Daughter, I cannot say enough about the care and consideration Stonebrook has taken to ensure the health and safety of everyone who lives there. I would highly recommend Stonebrook to those who are looking.

I would like to give a HUGE shout out of thanks to Stonebrook's newest Community Sales Director Jan Coska who took time out of her incredibly pressured schedule to tour my mother and I at this facility. We dropped in unannounced and took our chances. Jan made us feel extremely welcome, never pressured, never rushed even though she was smack in the middle of another big event... and she is a hoot to talk with. Just a super delightful lady and a 5 star experience all around being in her presence. Thanks very much Jan and we wish you nothing but great things in your new career here. Hopefully Stonebrook recognizes what they have in you!

A little over three years ago I became a resident at Stonebrook Village. Prior to moving in I was driving to a senior balance training class that I had been attending for several years, but now that I no longer drive, I am thankful there is an exercise program here I can attend without having to leave the building. I met Ashley soon after arriving here and immediately I started her program because I was ready to get moving better! Ashley has been improving on my lower body strength with success. I can now get up out of a chair without using my hands. She is professional, focused, and has a great sense of humor that makes it a joy to participate in her class.
