Overview of The Residence at Westport

Facebook Instagram LinkedIn

Five years into its run, The Residence at Westport occupies a three-story building at 1141 Post Rd E in Westport, Connecticut. It covers a wide range of care: assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care, all under one roof, with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments to choose from. The Walk Score here is 58, moderately walkable, so some errands work on foot while others still need a car.

Rehabilitation services, nursing services, and 24-hour staffing cover the medical side, while medication management, transfer assistance, housekeeping, and laundry handle the day-to-day. Respite care is available too, for families who need short-term coverage rather than a permanent move.

The Engagement Program builds in continuing education, cultural activities, physical wellness, and recreational time, giving residents more than a loose activities calendar to work with.

Connecticut’s Department of Public Health, through its Facility Licensing and Investigations Section, handles the state inspections here. Past reviews have tended to center on resident rights and protections and how care gets documented.

Between the range of care types, the rehabilitation and nursing services layered on top of daily support, and a named engagement program, The Residence at Westport is built for residents who may need to shift between care levels over time, without needing to leave the building to do it.
