What senior care providers are in the Greater Hartford directory?
This directory lists 44 DPH-licensed assisted living agencies (31 offering memory care), 67 nursing homes, 33 home health agencies and 11 hospice providers across Hartford, Tolland and Middlesex counties: 155 providers in all, taken from Connecticut and federal records.
Assisted living data comes from the Connecticut Department of Public Health's license records for Assisted Living Services Agencies, nursing homes from DPH licenses and the DPH Nursing Facility Registry, and hospices from CMS. Nothing here is paid placement, and we publish no reviews and no star ratings of our own; the only stars shown are Medicare's official CMS Care Compare ratings on the nursing home list.

Full profile →What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in Connecticut?
Assisted living is personal care and nursing services delivered by a DPH-licensed Assisted Living Services Agency inside a Managed Residential Community; memory care is that same agency's dementia special care unit or program, which needs separate DPH approval and a written disclosure. Neither is a nursing home.
| Assisted living (ALSA in an MRC) | Memory care (dementia special care unit) | |
|---|---|---|
| Who licenses it | DPH licenses the Assisted Living Services Agency (ALSA) that provides the care | Same ALSA license, plus DPH approval of the dementia special care unit or program (Public Act 21-121) |
| What the building is | A Managed Residential Community (MRC), registered with DPH — not licensed | A unit or program inside an MRC, often secured, with its staffing plan on file with DPH |
| What it is | Private apartment, meals, housekeeping, help with daily activities and medications | Dementia-focused care, activities and supervision for people with Alzheimer's or related disorders |
| What it isn't | Not a nursing home — no 24-hour skilled nursing | Not a separate license, and not a nursing-home dementia unit |
| What you get in writing | Residency agreement with fees, services and discharge terms | A signed dementia special care disclosure: philosophy, staffing ratios, training, placement and discharge criteria, extra fees |
| Typical Greater Hartford cost | $6,000–$8,500/mo | $7,500–$10,000/mo |
| Medicaid | Rent is private pay; CHCPE can pay for care services in participating communities | Same — rent is private pay; ask whether CHCPE is accepted |
Cost ranges: this site's 2026 Greater Hartford cost research. Rules: CT Public Health Code § 19-13-D105 and CGS § 19a-562.
Frequently asked questions
Is assisted living licensed in Connecticut?
Yes, but the license goes to the care provider, not the building. DPH licenses each Assisted Living Services Agency; the apartments are a Managed Residential Community that registers with DPH. A 2026 law created a working group to study whether MRCs themselves should be licensed.
Who regulates nursing homes in Connecticut?
DPH licenses nursing homes as Chronic and Convalescent Nursing Homes and surveys them for CMS; federal inspection results are published on Medicare Care Compare.
Do providers pay to be listed?
No. Every active licensed provider in the three counties is listed from public records, whether or not it works with us.
