Adult Day Care Communities in Great Neck, NY

"I wish I had known before sending my father into Margaret Tietz that their facility was not as their web site suggests, caring and kind with the cute little hearts. The nursing staff was unkind, the doctors were never available (it was like pulling teeth to get them to see patients), and in my father's case, I don't know why, but they didn't feel it was necessary to monitor someone as sick as dad while giving him coumadin, a blood thinner. When someone has a bad heart, bleeds easily and bruises easily, I think most would agree they should be monitored frequently. Their physical therapy was pretty good, and he even liked it, but a coumadin overdose sent him right back to the hospital. It took about 4 days to get the bleeding under control. Dad didn't have to die. Cookie-cutter medicine just doesn't work."

"Good for rehab: bad for long-term. My grandmother stayed in this facility for 2 months undergoing rehab for a broken ankle. She received good, attentive care and the nurse assistants were unusually nice. There was a good activity schedule. My grandmother absolutely loved the physical therapy department because they gave her daily attention and helped her walk. But the facility itself leaves a lot to be desired. While hospitable to residents and visitors, it often has a strong smell which suggests minimal cleaning. Also, the facility is very hard to get to without a car and is practically in the middle of a highway, so if the residents want to sit outside they have to sit near the garbage cans out in front (there is no garden area or proper place to sit). My grandmother ended up needing long-term care so we moved her to a different facility. Long story short: Rego Park is fine for rehab, but not for long-term. "

"My husbands's widowed father moved there after he was unable to live alone. He quickly acclimated to the loving peaceful surroundings at Providence Rest...what a treat to be on Long Island Sound. Every person working and volunteering there is exceptional. The Sisters of St. John are so humane and professional. I started volunteering at their fabulous Adult Day Health Care after my father-in-law died. I am so impressed with the organization at every level. "

"I felt that the staff was always friendly. Through the last years of my relatives life, the persons working there were caring and sympathetic. The facility was always clean, and they were able to accommodate visitor's special requests. "

"My brother is currently a resident at Elmhurst Care Center. The facility is exceptionally clean, the food is delicious, and the staff is attentive to the residents. My brother was in another home before this that was filthy, served food I wouldn't serve to my dog, and the staff was nasty. Thank goodness he was sent to Elmhurst. I have witnessed staff members spoon feeding residents who were not able to feed themselves. Bless the good people there for their hard work. "

"The program provides a full day for my mother. They pick her up and drop her off. She enjoys the socializing with her peers and the activities and trips they attend on a daily basis. The staff is friendly and helpful I helping us navigate health care issues. "

"I had a lot of good comments about Regal Heights. It has a very pleasant atmosphere. Mom was there for two weeks before she died. The staff was taking good care of her. "

"I picked this facility over others primarily for the care. My Aunt is in her first stages of Dementia and was wandering in the streets with no recollection while living alone. Here I feel her safety is of the utmost concern for them. She is treated respectfully and eating well. The rooms are clean and she's with other patient's who are in the same state of health. It will take time to make it her "home", and I'm comfortable that the staff follows up with me on any concerns or feedback regarding her care and adjustment. I couldn't have asked for a better situation when I had nowhere else to turn to for assistance. "

"When my husband would leave the hospital, he would go to Beth Abraham. It appeared to me to be quite efficient, and it looked pretty good to me. It looked like he would have better care there. The patients didn't look nostalgic, and they had more activities. The patients were involved in something like games. They didn't seemed to me to be just drugged in and sitting there. That's what impressed me more. The staff showed me just about everything. They took me all over the whole place. It looked clean, nice, and pleasant. It wasn't grimy or anything like that. The rooms were not spacious, but adequate. The dining area was an adequate, nice, and pleasant room. "
