Maplewood Senior Living

Dear [names removed} Holidays are often a difficult time for families who are separated. It is even more so when one family member needs to be cared for outside the home. My husband is a recent arrival to Assisted Living at Maplewood in Darien. After some good weeks, he had a difficult adjustment at Christmas. The nurses and Staff at Maplewood were attentive and patient considering his challenging behavior. We feel that the high quality care he is receiving will lead to a safe, comfortable, happy life at Maplewood. In addition, to responding to my husband's needs, the team was generous when I or my children, including the daughter with whom I live, and a son who is a Doctor, wanted to communicate with them. We were encouraged to both ask for information and to make suggestions concerning his care. We appreciate the many ways Maplewood has benefited my husband and our family. Thank you!

Maplewood has gone far beyond my expectations. I expected a beautiful setting in an excellent facility, but what I had not anticipated was how many friends I would make in a very short time. Staff creates a feeling of belonging here. I have friends that I treasure here and I consider Maplewood my "Home" and I am very happy.

Maplewood at Stony Hill is a place I highly recommend for your loved ones transition for the next step of their lives where there is loving, professional and safe care. It has been 4 years for my Mom at Maplewood and as her dementia is progressing but the “Peace of Mind” I have by mom being here is a feeling that is so important for Mom and myself. The Associates that ‘work and care’ here are top notch in every way. I can’t say enough good about them all. Grateful and Thankful.

The staff at Maplewood at Stony Hill has delivered on their promise to care for my mom. When I decided to move my mom into this residence I was, of course, worried. My mom has been at Stony for almost two years now. The staff is very responsive to her needs. They are also careful to keep me informed of how she is doing. It's very comforting to see my mom well taken care of from food to medical needs.

My aunt has had an awesome experience. She has adjusted well because of the staff. They are very patient and kind. The staff is attentive to their individual needs. They make the families feel at ease as well. The communication is top notch.

Beautiful place. The care staff went well above and beyond to make sure, my dad was cared for.

I think the staff is wonderful, they are very very helpful. The kitchen staff is wonderful there are a lot of activities. There is something for everyone. I love the outdoor excursions.

I think it's a very well run place. The food is great. The staff is very helpful and they're kind.

Maplewood is always trying to create new activities. I think the food is satisfying. They try to accommodate your palette as well as you requests different options at every meal the staff respects your wishes in all ways.

I am currently residing at Maplewood In Darien. I am very happy to live here. The staff and the residents are very congenial. Also the accommodations are lovely, and the food is excellent. I have been here for several months, throughout my stay here. I have enjoyed the daily activities that are offered.

I can only say this about the staff at Maplewood. I truly believe they have a "calling" - it's not just a job to them. I recently went through a health problem - and the loving care from them was exceptional!

This journey started [date removed]: starting in current community until sudden death of my husband. For that year, the love, care, and compassion overwhelming. The new journey for me to vista community is exactly the same. I feel blessed to be here - Maplewood-Chardon.

Many activities, staff is excellent and covers work when someone is absent. Meals could be improved. Our apartments are cleaned weekly. Staff is outgoing, friendly, smiles a lot, and willing to help. This is what we were looking for.

My mom has been living at Maplewood for almost two years. She has Alzheimer's and had a difficult transition to assisted living. At Maplewood, she has the care of some of the best nurses ever! The activities team is outstanding - mom now looks forward to spending time OUT of her room with her friends and doing activities. Last week I was bringing mom back after an appointment, she said, "I'm glad to be back home." It gives me peace of mind to know she is comfortable, safe and well cared for at Maplewood.

Family member has been at Maplewood at Stony Hill for three years. The care she has received has been consistently outstanding throughout the years . We highly recommend this facility for anyone requiring memory care.

Since my wife became a resident of Maplewood at Darien’s Memory Care, there has been a consistent and thoughtful approach to her daily routine. My wife's safety and care - and that of all the residents - are clearly and always top of mind for the staff at Maplewood. Maplewood’s organization and single-minded pursuit of treating all residents with compassion and respect is evident every single day. My visits, while never on a schedule, always elicit the same observation, that everyone from the Executive Director and Directors of Resident Services, Nursing and Currents Program through all the associates, take their responsibilities very seriously. Their care is both responsive and proactive. It begins as the residents wake up and start their day, and continues through three meals and snacks, stimulating activities throughout the day, and ends with bedtime supervision and assistance.

Our loved one moved to Mill Hill two months ago and has been very well cared for from the start. The staff are friendly, attentive, prompt and caring. Mike enjoys the dining room and cuisine. His studio apartment is just the right size fir him with a modern, roomy bathroom. The unit is light, bright and overlooks a pond. Above all, he feels safe, secure and very happy overall. Thank you to the Mill Hill staff for taking such good care of Mike!

As a family caregiver, you never want to have to place your loved into a facility against your mother's wishes. However, after a fall and difficulty finding 24-hour care a year ago, we had to make the difficult choice to move our mother. It is a daunting process and we all have a vision of what a "nursing home" looks like. Maplewood made it easy through their understanding and sensitivity. Our family, including Mom, couldn't be happier with Maplewood at Stony Hill. It is a "match made in heaven". Our mother loves the kind and attentive staff, the food, the continuous attention, the pampering and over all caring community, from the top down. Often we arrive to see Mom with a smile on her face doing her favorite Sunday morning pass time: tea in hand, reading her New York Times and watching the birds in the bright sun room after a wonderful brunch. The whole family is thrilled with the care she is receiving and do not question our choice for a second.

The entire team at Maplewood Orange turned a very difficult journey into one embraced with confidence and comfort in knowing we were making the right choice in having our 92 year old mom become a resident there just a few months ago. The size, setting, and staff were welcoming, accommodating, and committed to making this transition as smooth as possible for my mom and for us. The care team of nurses, aides, memory care, recreation, dining, work together in understanding each residents needs to ensure they are cared for in the most compassionate and engaging way. The variety of activities have allowed our mom to become more active and social which has made a difference in her overall physical and mental health. I have found all of the team to be responsive and proactive in addition to having an open-to-listen on questions and concerns. We feel like part of family here at Maplewood!

The facility is clean and comfortable, and all the staff provided wonderful care for my mother-in-law during her several-week rehab stay after an injury. She said the food was good and she felt very cared for.
