Home care in
Newington, CT.
Newington families usually call us when the stairs, the meals and the driving have all become too much in the same month.
Newington's own Plan of Conservation and Development says the town will stay a medium density, single family, owner occupied community. In practice that means an older house laid out when the family living in it was young, with rooms on more than one level. A caregiver takes the parts that have gotten hard: the shower, the laundry, the meal at the end of the day. Nothing about the house has to change for that to work.
When someone comes home from a stay, it is often from Jefferson House on John H. Stewart Drive, the Civita Care Center on Church Street, or Bel-Air Manor on New Britain Avenue. Hospital discharges come from Hartford Hospital, Saint Francis, or The Hospital of Central Connecticut in New Britain. We can be at the house within 24 hours of that date, with a four-hour minimum visit. The Newington VA Clinic on Willard Avenue is where many local veterans have appointments, and a caregiver can drive there and wait.
For a lot of families the question settles itself: they stay in the house they have and bring help in. The Senior and Disabled Center at 120 Cedar Street is a short drive from most of the town, and CTfastrak stops at Newington Junction and Cedar Street. We handle the rides, the shopping and the cooking so the house stays workable.
Getting to Newington
From 696 Park Street in Hartford it is under six miles to Newington Town Hall on Cedar Street, about twelve minutes down the Berlin Turnpike or Willard Avenue in light traffic.
