What Our Families Say
We could fill several websites telling you about our supportive, purpose-built design, personalized life-enrichment programs, and exceptional care and services … but, while remarkable and unique, those are merely the ingredients we use to create the real magic of Bridges® – the magic that is shown on the faces of our residents and felt in the hearts of their families.
My Mom Could Not Have Received More Loving Care
I just want you to know how caring each member of the staff was to my mom, most especially during the time once she entered into hospice care. Beth, Olivia Paige and Traci paid their respects and Olivia noticed that my mom was holding the rosary beads provided by Bridges. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Nancy kissed my mom at the end of her shift the evening before my mom passed, knowing that would be the last time she would be hugging and kissing her. Peter visited my mom’s room to kiss and say goodbye just before she passed, and all the caregivers were so attentive during my mom’s last 72 hours. My mom could not have received more loving care!!
I want to give a special thanks to all my mom’s caregivers. You are all very special people; able to so easily look past my mom’s illness and treat her with care, compassion, love, respect and dignity. You were her special angels, and to me … well, there are simply no words to describe what you have meant to me and to our family.

She Loves It
My mother has been at Bridges in Sudbury for the past 8 months. She loves it. We love it. Beautiful place. Great staff.

EPOCH Impressions
Right away, with its fireplace and comfortable chairs, the lobby was warm and inviting. From there, I followed the scent of brownies to my grandmother’s household, passing huge windows looking out onto a beautiful courtyard with walking paths that crisscrossed through the landscaped gardens.
Once inside the household, my senses screamed “Satisfying! Peaceful! Home!” Filled with natural light and artistically decorated in soothing tones, the open space had high ceilings and views of the sunny courtyard; lounge chairs and sofas were clustered around a fireplace; residents’ suites were personalized with their own belongings… I had arrived at Bridges® by EPOCH at Norwalk.
