Assisted Living Communities in Syracuse, NY

"The Athenaeum of Skaneateles is beautiful. It's a big mansion. It's a big, single family home and it's now built into 14 really nice rooms. It's more like living at your house. It's very clean. We got a full tour. We talked to everybody, even the maintenance guy and the director of events. The head of the place took us around for a couple of hours. We met the chef and he was really friendly. The dining area was beautiful and overlooked Skaneateles Lake. It has two big tables and everybody eats together. It's like a big dining room in a big, wealthy house."

"The rooms were neat and organized, and the staff checked in regularly to see if my aunt needed anything.Meals were brought to her room, which was more like a small apartment. She also had the choice to invite guests over for dinner where she could cook if she chose to, or have them bring a meal from the kitchen. The staff was friendly and patient with the residents. "

"I'm thinking seriously about The Hearth on James as I was quite happy with the place. I plan to go back, have a meal, and see how that goes. I've seen 3 places and I liked this one. I toured their independent living and I like the rooms very much. I liked the arrangement in the dining room too. I liked the fact that they have transportation available to take you places you need to go. The gentleman who gave me the tour was very professional, knowledgeable, and very pleasant. The sizes of the rooms were adequate and the layout was very nice. I looked at a 1-bedroom apartment and it had appliances that I would need, and appeared very pleasant."

"We toured Sedgwick Heights for my mother-in-law. They have an enhanced assisted living, and we thought that was an advantage. We liked the friendliness of the people. The rooms were a nice size. It's an older facility, but it's well maintained. Things are clean, neat, and so forth. We liked it because it has the enhanced assisted living, which will give her some more support if she needs it. The staff was patient and answered all our questions. They have a recreation program and a little store, and that's about it. A lot of that was on hold because of COVID. The layout was institutional, but the people were very friendly."

"Bernardine Loretto is close to my wife's work. Nothing stood out in a bad way. They're nice enough. The rooms are larger than I thought they would be. It's pretty brightened up, with nice big windows. They have a dining area on each floor. They have a bus that would take you for shopping and to medical appointments. They have standard in-house activities, too. "

"The staff at the Heritage took care of my mom in her final few years. Caring for patients with memory and faculty loss is obviously incredibly challenging. There are numerous activities for the residents and great efforts are made to provide for social interaction. Mom loved playing Bingo and the staff always ensured that she was able to join in the games. Over the past few years I saw so many examples of love, respect, and dignity given to the residents. We were very lucky to have had our time with the Heritage and will never be able to thank the staff enough."

"I love The Nottingham. My parents started out in independent living, and my father passed away, so I eventually got Mom into their assisted living. It's my number one. It's beautiful. The grounds are great for walking. It's sort of like a country setting. It's set away from the main road, and when you're on the campus it's really nice, safe, and secure. They have fobs on their keychains to get in. My mom needed a level of care that included the nursing staff doing all her medications, like ordering and delivery of the medication, whatever time of day it was. They would come in and give Mom her meds, and so that's very secure. The Nottingham offers a continuum from independent living to assisted living. They have memory care, too, but if any of their residents fall ill and need rehab (if they have a room in their rehab), that's another service that they provide there. I love that place. That's my favorite. The food is delicious. In the assisted living it's the same level of deliciousness and choices. The people who serve the folks there got to know them by their first names. They know that Mom likes her iced tea with two lemons, so there's a very good personal touch to it. They have a recreation therapist, and they have an activities program that runs through the week and the weekends. There are times when they will take them over to activities that are in independent care even though they're in assisted living. They will go over there for some special events or some music at night or whatever it is. I like the flow of that because with my mom moving from independent care to assisted living I don't want her to miss anything. I was there for Mother's Day where we planted seeds. They painted their clay pots and then they planted the seeds. They tried to make it as friendly and welcoming as they could. The facility is very pretty, very clean, and welcoming."

"I am in Menorah Park and I am going to stay here. It has everything I need. It has meals and laundry. The care is adequate. My room is very clean, and it is big enough for me. It has a bathroom and a kitchenette. We have many kinds of activities. We have shopping, music, bingo, and all the regular activities. The dining area is very nice, and the food is good. "

"Cannot express how grateful and thankful we as a family are for the care that has been and continues to be provided by the staff at Elderwood at Liverpool for my Father-In-Law. Even during COVID they were amazing. He has Alzeheimers and is in the last stages, but they continue to treat him and the other residents with such respect and care. The staff is above and beyond and steps in when the family can't be there. We are truly grateful~Thank you. It means more than words can tell~"

"Buckley Landing was very nice. It was a lovely place that my mother would be happy in. The staff was very friendly, open, and communicative. They're very cordial, helpful, and cooperative. The facility seemed clean and well-kept."

"My mother Regina Lapchenko was a resident at Sunnyside Adult home for a very short time this year. I would like to send Cindy and her staff my appreciation for all their dedication, loving support and most of all their kind and caring words. Not just towards my mother Regina, but towards all of their residents. Our communty is truly blessed to have such a professional and caring facility that sees each resident as a PERSON that is individual and important. The faculty and staff of Sunnyside shows genuine care and interest in each resident individually and addresses their needs as such. I don't think that there is much more that a family member could ask for. I truly don't know what I would have done without a facility like yours. Thank you! "

"Our 85 year old Mom has been here for almost a year....We could not be more pleased with the place or the care she has received.......Susan, Kevin, Steph, John and the entire staff are just the best ! ...Very homey and like extended family...And the meals are exceptional !....Highly recommend "

"My mother is already settled in Camillus Ridge Terrace. What I like most about this one is the location, just because all of my family is already out in Camillus, so having her nearby is nice. The residents, when we were touring, all seemed very happy and they have activities happening all the time, so that's huge. They have music pretty much every day, which I know makes my mom happy. They have movie nights. In terms of the general atmosphere, everything is clean, neat, tidy and welcoming. The staff seems attentive. My mom has been there for a month and they all know her by name. "
