Masonicare at Middlewoods of Newington sits at 2125 Main Street in Newington, CT, and brings a calm, neighborly feel to retirement living, with friendly staff folks who take time to know the residents, whether someone chooses independent living, assisted living, or memory care. The community runs on a single-story layout that makes it easy to get around, with a Country Kitchen where they bake homemade cookies, and several cozy floor plans, including studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments-some look more like cottages but all feel pretty homey, clean, and welcoming. Residents can join activities, wellness programs, social events, and enjoy healthy meals that match different diets or food preferences, so you don't have to fuss about eating the same thing every day or worry about strict food rules unless you want them.
As part of Masonicare, this location offers a wide continuum of care, which means you don't need to move if your needs change, since there are health and wellness services, visiting nurses and therapists, home health, hospice, and palliative care, along with skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, even medical alert devices for extra safety, and support for activities like bathing and medication management. There's also an onsite Behavioral Health Hospital, a Hearing Center, outpatient therapy, and an Intensive Outpatient Program, so there's help for a range of health concerns right where you live. Folks can try out Short-Term Trial Stays if they're not sure about a long-term move, and services like the Adult Day program or Masonicare Moves for those who want a little extra support now and then.
