What recent reviews say

Avery Heights operates across independent living, assisted living, memory care, and short-term rehab in the Greater Hartford area, but reviews are sharply divided. Half rate it five stars, citing warm end-of-life care and activity programs; the other half give one or two stars, reporting neglect, unclean conditions, mold, missing belongings, and staff who refuse family calls. Recent complaints mirror earlier ones from years ago.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

  • attentive end-of-life care
  • activity programs and fitness facilities

Worth knowing
