Buckingham Estates Our perfect hilltop, country setting is in a quiet neighborhood nestled between both Minnechaug Golf Course and Manchester Country Club, yet we’re only minutes away from Manchester Memorial Hospital. The warm, relaxed family atmosphere encourages both you and your loved one to call our community home, just as our current residents and families do. Located in welcoming rural Glastonbury, and minutes from I-84 and Route 2 in the heart of Connecticut, Buckingham Estates is an ideal senior living community. From its relaxing, town atmosphere to themed events and day trips to local landmarks such as the Glastonbury Ferry, Rose's Berry Farm, and Bolton Lake, Buckingham Estates is a truly well-rounded community of care and life enrichment. While the aesthetics and architectural design of a building are important when finding a new home for your loved one, those attributes don't provide direct care to your family member. The tenured staff at Buckingham Estates is what differentiates this senior living community from any other. Because of the amount of interaction our staff has with each resident on a day-to-day basis, all employees in the community, not just our nursing department, are provided with specialized training in dementia care and cognitive impairment. Monthly in-service training is provided on an ongoing basis relating to topics specific to caring for individuals with dementia. Because we are a dedicated memory care community, the staff are accustomed to the challenging behaviors that are sometimes associated with dementia, and know how to respond with compassion, understanding, and the sensitivity needed to redirect appropriately rather than reacting in a manner that may increase anxiety.
