I visited 5 different places before moving Mom to Danbury Senior Living in Hudson in February of 2024. As soon as we walked in the door, we could feel the energy and the positive chemistry... Staff smiling at residents as they pass in the hall, asking after them by name... a resident approached us at lunch to give us the "skinny" on the place, about how much he likes it there. The staff clearly care about the residents, and the residents respond. There are numerous and varied engaging activities, including art, live music, bingo, trivia contests, axe throwing, scrabble and dominoes, lunch outings, special holiday meals, and Mon-Fri seated exercise that's accessible to all - and they make it so much fun! The food... the FOOD! I've tried institutional food at many care facilities, and Tim and staff top the chart. During the pandemic, Tim had to develop his own soup recipes since canned soup was in short supply... and he's taken it over the top. DON'T MISS THE SOUP! The dining room is open all day long - you are not restricted to timed seatings - and guests are welcome even if you don't call ahead to reserve. The fish and chips is deep-fried PERFECTLY. Dad loves the omelets. And the waitstaff are friendly, engaged, and caring. Mom had dementia and was wheelchair bound. She was gregarious, and needed socialization. I cannot stress enough how much this community embraced her, and she, them. The synergy in the facility - the general staff, the management, the caregivers and nurses, and the RESIDENTS! - helped immeasurably to help Mom live her best possible life during the last 8 months before she passed away in October 2024.

Where do I even begin..? I am a private caretaker for an elderly person that recently lived at Danbury. He was there for 6 months. Lets start by saying the sales lady is really good at her job, she will tell you just about anything you want to here to get you through them doors. The family and I were made so many promises it almost seemed too good to be true… we were told the rooms were cleaned weekly by housekeeping and that we wouldn’t have to worry about cleaning at all! We were told that they were kept busy most of the day with engaging activities, we were lead to believe that Danbury was the absolute best place possible. Fast forward about a month and I am having to clean the room and bathroom every single day I come in, his bathroom is covered in feces and urine, my client is covered in feces and urine, he’s wearing the pajamas that were put on him the night before (I work with my client from 3- he goes to bed) I constantly had to change his bed because he would wet it, the wouldn’t check it they would just throw his blankets over it, so I was constantly having to change his bedding every couple days. It’s started getting to the point where I would show up to my client sitting in his dark room all by himself, no TV no music nothing. There are 2 memory care units, a small side and a big side. He was on the the small side, well most of the residents moved out so there were only 2 residents on his side, they were left by themselves almost every day. The family of my client had a camera in the room, there were multiple days a week I would have them check the cameras and tell me when he was checked last, on those days the FIRST AND LAST TIME he was checked on was 12:30 pm. They would bring him his lunch, set it on his table and walk out. Then I would be the next one checking on him at 3. So he wasn’t eating almost all day. In the 6 months he was there not once did they ever try to shower him, the family or I were the ones to shower him. He is supposed to wear compression socks and they were never put on so his feet and ankles would swell so much they were coming out of his shoes, or he would put them on himself and his circulation was getting cut off. I told them about ants that he had in his room for 3 months. Twice a week I would tell the front desk, they would leave a note for maintenance but nothing was ever done. It’s started getting to the point where he was being neglected once they heard he was being moved, his laundry was sent getting done when it was left out to get done, when it did get done it would take 3-4 days of asking for it until it was found and returned to his room, usually he had already ran out of clean clothes so the family was having to bring my clothes for him In the middle of the night. He was left in soiled clothes daily, started getting rashes on his back end and legs from being left wet all day. When I finally had enough of showing up to aids sitting on their phones in the hallways and finding my client soiled I lost my nerve and flipped out, I was threatened by one of the aids because I shut the door after asking her to leave the room 10 times because she was screaming at me In front of my client, so she yelled through the door that she was going to slap the f out of me because I was a disrespectful little B. That place is a joke and so aren’t 95% of the people that work there. So basically if you DONT want your family member neglected, left in dirty soiled clothes, sleeping in pissy sheets and not being showered properly and living in a dirty and infested room, then I highly suggest you DO NOT bring them to Danbury. Take them to Maplewood at Twinsburg 1000% better, the staff care here, my client is showered almost daily, his bed is changed and made when needed, his room is cleaned as needed and they actually do stuff with them and care about them
I absolutely love this nursing facility! I love the staff and everything about it! They work so hard and make my company feel so warm and welcomed here! They take good care of the patients! Nurses, aides and all upper management is just amazing! Dietary management and maintenance is also amazing! Choose this Danbury because they rock at what they do! ♥️
My mom was there for 4yrs . The last 6 mos the care had really gone down hill. Constant mgt changes and more concerned about money than patient care. With my mom having dementia it was a hard decision to move her, but I did. At least 6 others have moved out in the last couple of months because of the care level received. That should tell them something is wrong
My mom was at Hudson Danbury for almost two years 2022-2024. The last year and a half has been terrible. It has been a revolving door of management and staff. Due to neglect I moved my mom elsewhere. Don't be fooled by their smiling faces. They have 40 beds in memory care, more than half are now empty.
