Home care in
Windsor, CT.

Windsor is really a set of old village centers stitched into one town: Windsor Center, Wilson, Poquonock, Hayden Station, Deerfield and Rainbow. Around Wilson and Windsor Center you still find the two and three family houses from the trolley era, which the town's 2022 housing plan describes as legal non-conforming after Windsor adopted single family zoning. A second floor apartment in one of those means a full flight of stairs for every grocery bag and every appointment. Caregivers plan around it, carrying up, walking down and keeping the number of trips low.

Rehab stays often happen in town, at Kimberly Hall on Emerson Drive or the Windsor Health and Rehabilitation Center on Poquonock Avenue. Hospital discharges come from Hartford, usually Saint Francis, Hartford Hospital or Mount Sinai Rehabilitation Hospital, straight back up Windsor Avenue or I-91. Care can begin within 24 hours of that date. What happens in those first two weeks at home is usually what keeps a family out of another emergency.

The town is not flat. Windsor runs from the river flats up to the higher ground around Day Hill, so some streets sit level and others sit on a genuine grade. The Windsor Senior Center is inside the L. P. Wilson Community Center on Matianuck Avenue, alongside Social Services, and a caregiver can drive there and stay for the afternoon. We also support residents in the Windsor Housing Authority's age restricted apartments at Fitch Court, Millbrook Village and Shad Run Terrace.

Getting to Windsor

It is about nine miles from 696 Park Street in Hartford to Windsor Town Hall on Broad Street, roughly fifteen minutes by I-91 or by Route 159, which runs into town as Windsor Avenue and becomes North Main Street at the green.
