Maplewood Senior Living

Maplewood is a lovely, caring community. The staff keeps you up to date on the progress of your loved one. The surroundings are beautiful and well maintained. More like a B&B than assisted living. Expensive, but well worth it.

This is an all over excellent community. It's clean and the staff is friendly. I would recommend this to anyone for their loved one.

My loved one was here for quite a long time, and it was a wonderful place. They had an amazing activities director, and were great about encouraging the residents to participate in everything that they offered. She had a beautiful, spacious apartment, and the care they offered was wonderful. They also did an amazing job with the food! They had a large, varied menu to choose from, and the food itself was delicious. Unfortunately her care needs advanced past what they were able to provide here, we would have loved to be able to stay.

My mother has been at Maplewood at Danbury for a year & a half & I highly recommend it! The entire staff is very loving, & kind, I feel that Mom gets the best of care. She is always clean, as are her clothes & room. She has severe dementia, but my stress is all gone knowing she is in a beautiful place, with understanding, caring aides! I can honestly say that I have nothing negative that I can say. I have complete peace of mind with her being there! They also have lots of activities for the residents, and the food is excellent!

My father's transition to the Maplewood memory care unit required a very high skill level. I was initially very skeptical that he would ever be able to live in a community, but the staff demonstrated consistently that they were up to the challenge. This is not to say that there were not bumps in the road, but I finally feel that some one other than me is capable of handling this cantankerous man with dementia.

My sister & I toured Maplewood with the thought of moving our mother from Baton Rouge. We were very impressed and sure my mother would be well cared for there. We loved it; beautiful inside and out. Staff seems very caring. I would recommend in a heartbeat.

Our loved one is extremely happy here. Liz was very helpful, and seems to be a caring, sensible person. They have continuous care here, you can stay to the end of life. They have been extremely helpful. He has made new friends, they were able let him keep his dog. There is a place to go for a walk nearby without being on the main street. The food is pretty good. It's a very good fit. There is a good church nearby, within walking distance. I loved the greenery and the trees all around too, it didn't look like a ten story office building.

My loved one hasn't moved in quite yet, but after all of my tours and the work I've done with the staff I've had nothing but good experiences with Maplewood! The facility itself is well kept, clean, and very nice looking. The staff, from the caregivers to the administration, have all been very friendly and easy to work with.

They could do a little more with the variety, of the activities. The food would get a 4, sometimes things aren't always hot. There is a new chef so that may improve. They have been very efficient, I really have no complaints. I like the floorplan it's all one level and the circle design is nice. In the center they have a very nice garden area that is outdoors and very large. All the rooms have a window that looks to the outside. It's nice too that the inside looks like the outside with porches in front of every door. Some rooms that open outside have a patio, and everyroom has a private bedroom and bath with a kitchenette/living area.

This was the second facility we tried for my Mom who has dementia. They were incredibly supportive in a very difficult situation. Mom has been there for five weeks now and while the first two weeks were difficult (not due to the facility, but to Mom's challenges) she has settled in and is doing incredibly well. Her anxiety has diminished dramatically and she seems to be having a much better quality of life than she was when living alone.

They are very clean and they are friendly. The food is good but I find when I go to see my dad it is a little sparse, and even some of the other residents complain, that there is not quite enough. I find that it is very bland, maybe it's fine for the other people there but I don't think it's enough for him. I don't think it has anything to do with the staff or the cook, maybe it's just the way the food needs to be managed. I think they serve him very nice, and they are friendly and always try to help them. They do have a lot of activities. I wish dad would participate more. They are very plush and new, colorful and is very well designed with everything on one floor. No question about it, the care is definitely there!

Absolutely lovely community. Very bright, very welcoming. Care staff is very upbeat, residents seemed happy and very social. Love the farm to table food concept and what I tasted was excellent. Apartments were the nicest I have seen of all the assisted living communities I have toured. If this were in Putnam or Dutchess we would have already booked Mom's arrival. Unfortunately, it turns out to be a 75 minute drive (without traffic) for my brother, and it's in the opposite direction from where he works/lives. I would highly recommend anyone considering assisted living communities in the Danbury area put Maplewood on their list.

Visited and was very impressed by this facility.

I love living in this lovely, quiet, bright facility. The entire staff is dedicated to our comfort & well-being. Medical staff is very professional. Overall the atmosphere is caring and prompt to meet residents needs; efficient & well-run facility. Minuses - food could be fresher, more seasoning and varied.

This is a better community than most. The staff and community itself makes it better in my opinion. The food is very good, and they do a nice job. Games, outings around town, gardening, movies, and more are activities for the residents to choose from.

I would recommend Maplewood. As far as I can tell, it's one of the best assisited living places around, and that's why we selected it. I like the atmosphere and the location. It's close for us to come visit. I think the staff is doing a good job, and they're very friendly. They seem to bring people out and bring them together for activities quite a lot, although my loved one hasn't been able to participate much due to a disability. The food seems to be pretty good, and they offer a variety to choose from.

When making the difficult decision about the best place for your loved one, Maplewood makes it easier. Although the decor, food and amenities are all wonderful, the staff is what makes the difference.
