Is there a dementia unit at Brightview Shelton?
No state dataset answers it. DPH does not post its list of dementia special care units, so the question goes to Brightview Shelton, along with a request for the unit's staffing plan and disclosure statement.
Connecticut requires a staffing plan on file with DPH and annual dementia training for licensed direct care staff in memory care units, but sets no numeric ratio, so ask for the overnight headcount on the unit itself. How Connecticut regulates dementia care in assisted living.

What should families ask Brightview Shelton before moving in?
Let the public record set the agenda: ask for the residency agreement and the ALSA service agreement side by side: the MRC charges for housing and core services, the ALSA for care.
- Ask who the assisted living supervisor (the required registered nurse) is, and how the 24-hour on-call nurse is reached at night.
- Ask for the fee schedule and the history of increases; MRCs must give 90 days' notice of recurring-fee increases and ALSAs 60 days.
- Ask whether the community accepts residents whose assisted living services are paid by the Connecticut Home Care Program for Elders, and what rent is charged if so.
