Assisted Living Communities in Forest Hills, NY

"We toured Atria Cutter Mill. They have lovely staff and nice facilities. It was good. They provide three meals a day. They had limited kitchens. They had a microwave and a refrigerator. I don't remember if they had a stove. If they did, it was a very small stove. My uncle likes to cook, and he would not be able to make some of his cakes and cookies that he likes to share. So, that would not be the optimal choice."

"Atria Park of Great Neck is the best in terms of cleanliness, level of care, and professionalism. They're top-notch. My father's been there for two weeks now and I visited him many times. The only problem he complains about is the lack of Chinese-speaking staff over there. They have someone who is Chinese, but there's only one and she's also the nurse supervisor. So, I don't want her to be bogged down by this question because she has her duty already. Beyond that, his room is OK. The environment is nice. This place is good. As far as the staff, I don't have much to complain about. They are pretty good. I haven't seen the meals up close because they don't allow family in the dining room but the setting is very good. They escort my father to the dining room for three meals. So, he has enough exposure, including the trip to the dining room, activities, and all that. The facility itself, compared to the other places I visited, is very clean. There's no smell in the air. They're relatively new, in fact, compared to other places. I was there the other day and I've seen their activity that involves the whole residency. They try and the participation from the residents is good (if they can participate). People who do not have the mental or physical capacity, are present, but they don't necessarily have people to help them really to fully enjoy the environment. It's pretty expensive. If there is something that can be improved, that would be the cost side, but I don't think that's something wrong. There's a slight delay in their response to someone who presses the request button, but it's minor. If they could allow my father to have an electric wheelchair, it would probably help him some, because he is not fully mobile on one side so a regular wheelchair is not all that useful, but they don't allow it. He has to be moved around by a person. They respond to requests like "Can I get a better bed for him to get out?" and they ordered a hospital bed for him. So that helped. I asked whether they could get a better seat cushion because he is not able to sit in a regular wheelchair for a long time and they respond to that sort of thing. They're minor things. I don't think it's a big deal."

"Coterie Hudson Yards is very nice, but it's very expensive. I went on a tour of their assisted living and the rooms are beautiful, the staff is very friendly, and the food is wonderful. It's almost like a restaurant-type atmosphere where you can order drinks with all types of food and entertainment. You have the piano player going while you're eating. The people are polite and professional. I also had a meal with them. They have a wonderful menu and a chef right on the premises. Their rooms are not shared, but they also accommodate couples. They take the residents on tours down to Manhattan and go to different places and different restaurants. It's a wonderful place."

"Atria West 86 was wonderful. The staff was very friendly, welcoming, and gave a lot of their time. I appreciated it. I like the location in particular. Most of the rooms overlook the Hudson, and it's half a block away from a lovely park. It was very nice. I felt like I met all of the administrators, and everyone, including the cleaning people whom I happened to bump into in the elevator or wherever, were all very friendly and welcoming. I had lunch there and it was very nice. It's a very old building. It used to be a hotel at one time, and then changes were made. It was very clean."

"Sunrise at Mill Basin was a beautiful place, but it was very expensive. It's assisted living, but they also take care of dementia like my sister. It's very luxurious. The director was the only one I had contact with. She was very good and very informative."

"Sunrise of Edgewater was well maintained and and had friendly staff. They were very helpful and answered all my questions. The dining area looked fine. They have exercise classes, memory games, and outdoor areas."

"One of my church brothers is there at Pelham Gardens. It is a nice place. It is clean and nice. They have a lot of activities, especially in the summer time. They have the 24-hour care too with nurses. The staff is very nice. For the few times we go there in the day time, they're pretty good. They don't have the attitude. It is a nice community of people. They have activities like line dancing for the old folks, movies, and ping-pong. It is like a home because they can bring some of my friend's furniture. It is like a home away from home. Their rooms are very clean. It is another place for people who have few dollars. I could see this is a very clean place. It is also a pretty big place. "

"We toured Sunrise of North Lynbrook. They showed us the cafeteria in this facility, but they didn't offer food. They showed us where the residents would be eating. Everything was top-notch. It was very clean. As you walk in, you're greeted by somebody at the desk. It was a secure place, and they offered a lot."

"Long Island Living Center wasn't suitable for my relative because they have a requirement, and he doesn't fit into their requirement. It was beautiful. Everything in there was beautiful, big, and spacious. The inside was gorgeous. You would never think that it looked that way inside. I wish I could get him in there. It's right across the street from St. John's Hospital. It's in a good spot. The staff was very courteous. She invited me into her office, which was open and warmhearted. The dining room was beautiful. The people there seemed to be laid back. It was a nice place. They have a sitting room, a TV room, and a movie room. It's like home, like somewhere you would want to be."

"We couldn't be more grateful for the care and attention my father-in-law is receiving at Atria Senior Living in Lynbrook. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, warm, and full of life. The staff is not only professional but also incredibly kind and attentive—they truly treat residents like family. What really stands out is the level of engagement and activities provided daily. Whether it's music, games, or outings, there's always something to keep the residents stimulated and social. My father-in-law has made new friends and often tells us how much he enjoys the events and meals. The dining options are excellent and tailored to meet a variety of needs and preferences. The facility itself is always clean, bright, and thoughtfully maintained. It brings us such peace of mind knowing he is not only safe but thriving in a supportive, caring environment. We highly recommend Atria in Lynbrook to any family looking for compassionate, high-quality senior living. It has truly been a blessing for our family. Thank you The Creagh's."

"I toured Harbour View Senior Living. The rooms are big enough, and everything is comfortable. Also, I got the opportunity because everything is included, including the meals, medical attention in case some emergency shows up, and nursing service in case I need it. A parking lot is also included. I can park my car anywhere because there are a lot of areas to park my car, so it's very convenient for me. There is a social room where people can meet and make a program. The price is not very cheap, but it's correct because everything is included. The people were very kind and nice."

"Harborview Senior Living is the place that I am suggesting to my friend's sister and her family. It's a really lovely facility. I got a chance to talk to some of the people there, and they're very happy with being there. I liked the ease with which the admissions officer, Angelica, was able to help us understand what is necessary for the transition of going into Harborview. It was just a very good experience. The staff answered all questions with a thoroughness that I have not experienced in other places. They had all the facilities that we needed. They have a gym, a sunroom, and a courtyard. Everything is there that we need. It is near restaurant facilities. It's a lovely neighborhood. When you walk out, you feel that you are in an area that is safe as well as there's the availability for not just restaurants, but also other things such as hospitals and other nursing facilities."
