The city
Living in Stratford, CT
Stratford sits along Connecticut's coastline where the Housatonic River meets Long Island Sound. The town offers a quiet suburban pace with waterfront parks and easy access to nearby New Haven and Bridgeport, making it a convenient base for nurses seeking shoreline scenery without big-city density.

More about Regional Care Network
On Glassdoor, about 18 reviews average 3.9 out of 5, with roughly 65% saying they would recommend; category scores sit in the mid-3s and senior management lands lowest. A former CNA talked about a heavy physical toll but said overtime pay was good. Stratford itself reads as a sparse suburb with many homeowners, a mix of young professionals and retirees, and a mean commute near 26.5 minutes. Pay detail for Stratford nurses is thin in what we have—one associated CNA figure elsewhere sat near $20/hr with low confidence—and an LPN plainly said the rate was not great for what facilities expect. That gap is worth weighing against the schedule flexibility people have described.
