Overview of Hoffman Summerwood Community

Hoffman Summerwood Community was an assisted living and memory care community in West Hartford, CT. Assisted living provided help with daily tasks while allowing a resident to maintain a private living space, while memory care offered a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. These care options could have suited a resident needing daily support or a more secure environment, although Hoffman Summerwood Community closed on August 31, 2025.

Housing options included one-bedroom and two-bedroom residences. A one-bedroom layout suited a resident seeking a single living space, while a two-bedroom option could accommodate a couple moving together or someone who wanted a companion. Pets were allowed, so residents could bring a pet when moving into the community.

Hoffman Summerwood Community served the community for over two decades. Inquiries go to Denise Peterson.
