Dear Residents and Families,
Thank you so much for choosing 60 West for your specialized long term care needs.
60 West is a highly specialized care center; the first of its kind in the country. In collaboration with partners from the State of Connecticut, we care for individuals who may be transitioning from state care or who may be difficult to place in a traditional nursing home setting. 60 West is part of iCare Health Network’s MissionCare Health service line. More information on MissionCare Health can be found here or by clicking on the Executive Summary tab in the navigation bar above.
Our team recognizes that each patient and their family is truly unique with their own set of expectations, clinical and social need and goals for care. Our mission is to provide a safe, secure environment that is inclusive, compassionate and free of stigma.
At 60 West, we are committed to actually living and delivering on our Mission and Vision. Our team is diverse, passionate and engaged, but most importantly they are a Team and a Family. We work together day in and day out to make 60 West all that it can be and bring that same feeling to the residents with whose care and safety we are entrusted.
