  Just Like Home has been a kind, caring and positive experience in caring for my elderly mother. The atmosphere is beautiful with a small number of patients and a good patient/staff ratio. Meals are family style. Care is individualized. There are many socially stimulating activities. The staff are capable, loving people that are also very supportive of family members. It has been a blessing to have my mother there. Management is helpful, communicative and always accessible. Everyone goes the extra mile in providing outstanding patient care.

  In need of a Memory Care place for my spouse, I was serendipitously referred to the Just-Like-Home facility in Shelton Connecticut. Here are some of my thoughts that might be helpful. They are in no particular order but cover the areas I thought were important. One of the things that I liked was the fact that the facility was actually a residential house. Amazingly, It was converted into a safe assisted care facility with all of the safety accoutrements needed to protect residents. For me the home environment was way better than your hotel/hospital like environment of college dormitory set-up. The ratio of staff to residents is 2 to 7 with an extra house manager that comes in regularly and who also assists with the care and engagement of residents. The owner often stops in as well and on a surprisingly frequent basis. The staff are genuinely engaged with the residents, attending to needs. cooking meals, doing laundry and other tasks. They also make it a point to regularly talk to everyone and frequently engage by play games and other types of activities. Just-Like- Home even has an entertainment schedule where outside folks come in to conduct things like chair yoga sessions, piano music shows etc. They also have medical professionals that come in for the residents, they provide at a small cost things like haircuts, personal grooming, and podiatry, all on site. They are well organized when it comes to administering medications and they partner with a pharmacy to keep prescription items in stock. The rooms are very nice and kept clean by the staff. There are two outside decks but only the big one is used for outdoor sun bathing or just relaxation in the open air. General living is just like home, no pun intended, with actual cooked from scratch meals by the staff, and accommodations for dietary restrictions like gluten-free. One note, the location is difficult to find the first time as the home is set back on a long driveway. Also, parking can be challenging
