Artis Senior Living of Branford

Well-Being Philosophy

Holistic Care, The Artis Way

To help people with dementia experience optimal well-being, we start with our signature Partnership Profile, a questionnaire that helps give us a thorough and thoughtful understanding of their history, interests, and personal qualities. We take these responses and create a structure, routine and care plan with opportunities for social connection and freedom to be one’s authentic self.

Our evidence-based, holistic well-being framework includes an optimal combination of a supportive environment, discreet care, social connection, and cognitive health.

Environment

Our intentionally designed communities promote safety and independence with adaptive, accessible design, décor that creates a sense of familiarity, and secure outdoor spaces that encourage exploration.

Care

We provide support with medication reminders and activities of daily living, along with better nutrition and exercise programs to enhance overall well-being.

Connection

We offer daily, well-rounded opportunities for participation and social engagement with neighbors, associates, friends, and family – and monthly outings – fostering a sense of autonomy, belonging, and purpose.

Cognitive Support

We engage residents in specialized programs and therapies designed to stimulate cognitive function and promote emotional well-being, including music and art therapy, memory-enhancing exercises and games, reminiscence therapy, and sensory stimulation exercises.

Memory Care

Memory Care at Artis is designed to help people living with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia feel empowered in their care and in their day-to-day lives. A licensed nurse is on site 24/7, and associates are specially trained in dementia care.

Sadly, most of us wait too long to get our loved ones to a place that can keep them safe, fed, properly medicated and bathed. It’s a tough decision for a family. While nobody wants to to be get to the point of needing memory care, Artis provides a clean and caring environment. I am grateful for the care and compassion all the staff shared with my father.

Artis is has the most kind and compassionate people who work there. The entire staff is really wonderful – they always greet residents with their name, engage in conversations with them, care for them in a really caring way. I can’t say enough about feeling so comfortable leaving my mom in their hands – and she has been in a few places – nothing compares to this home – truly!

I am currently the Director of Sales and Marketing for Artis of Branford. I have seen this amazing team grow and bring so much joy to our residents for nearly 4 years now. Prior to working here I would frequently refer families to Artis because I knew that they were the experts in memory care. Working with families who are facing the challenging decision to move their loved ones into a memory care community is something I am truly passionate about. It is an incredibly difficult decision to make. My team at Artis strives to make their decision and their experience a positive one, not only for our residents but for their families as well. If you are looking for a community that is family oriented with a warm and welcoming environment, Artis of Branford should be your #1 choice.

We moved my Father in Law in on Memorial Day weekend. It was a difficult decision. He was living at home with great caregivers, but needed more activities and socialization. Artis is outstanding at providing opportunities for residents to be engaged, listen to music, participate in a variety of art, cooking, low impact exercise and games. The people are very caring and there is a real positive vibe. He is very happy. We have never thought twice about the decision.

Artis Senior Living in Branford is by far one of the best assisted living facilities in CT that I have had the pleasure to work side by side with as a home hospice nurse. Not only does the ambiance feel and look homey, but the staff are very friendly and show just how much they care about each resident, and their loved ones, in order to make a real home for each person. Their director of nursing, Ashley, really takes a team approach to make sure everyone is taken care of based on their individual needs. The nursing staff have kept us as outside providers informed on every detail, in real time, in order to provide the best level of care possible. Overall, Ashely and her staff are very knowledgeable, caring, and have been wonderful to work with over the past couple if years.
