I like Atria on the Hudson because it’s brighter. They have a pool. Some of the rooms face the pool. It’s very private, which I like. If I have to choose, I will choose them because they have a nice garden, large pool areas, and a very comfortable theater for watching movies. We saw the dining room. We actually had the food. The staff gave us food to take home from the kitchen, and I was like, "Wow, this was nice." The food was very delicious. We had salmon with potatoes and veggies, and she gave me a steak, which was really nice. She didn’t have to, as we were just there to visit the place, but she wanted us to have a taste for what the residents eat. The staff was wonderful, very friendly, very competent, knowledgeable, and personable. Their rooms looked like my bedroom. It was very nice and well set up. Everything looked clean. It was well lit with a window, and that’s important to me. What I like about that specific room was it was open; it had a balcony that faced the pool. If my friend had gone there, he would have loved that.

My dad was at The Country House in Westchester. The room could have been cleaner. He was there for four years, and as far as the help, he had a great aide. The people who were with him every day would be a "five" because they tried their hardest. Before COVID, they had entertainment all the time in the main lobby, and they were good with their activities, but my dad just never used them. They had exercise and bingo, they had people come and play the piano, and they had groups come in and sing. At least once a week they brought everybody in and listened to music, but because my dad can’t hear very well, all he probably heard was noise, so he wouldn’t stay there.

My mom is at The Club at Briarcliff Manor. It’s newly renovated and so everything is brand new. She has River Hudson views from her one-bedroom apartment. Her meals are included. There’s a movie theater, an exercise room, an art studio, and physical therapy. It also has independent living and a memory care unit, and a rooftop terrace where you can actually see the New York City skyline. They ran a promotion for a year of house rent.
The staff members are lovely actually, because when she went in she was quarantined, so I quarantined with her for five days. They have a care team on each floor, so I got to meet the nurses and aides. They have an art room, bingo, music, and entertainment. Because of the quarantine, some of the activities are on hold right now. When the quarantine is over they can go shopping and they have a bus. She was close to home, which is what she wanted. She said if she had to leave her home, this was a good place to be.
At this point nothing has gone wrong. They have taken good care go her. They’re very responsive to my inquiries if I call with an issue. She didn’t feel good one day, so I called and they checked on her within an hour. If I have an issue, the CEO calls me back. I ate there for five days when I was quarantined with her. The food was good. We had to eat in our room. They brought our meals to us, so I really didn’t get the dining room experience. The activities are on hold right now, but when she was moving around the building she had free rein to go anywhere she wanted in the building and she went to the movies, to the music. She doesn’t play cards so she didn’t do that, but they were available. Right now they’re on hold. They’re supposed to come off quarantine on December 24th, Christmas Eve, so that would be a nice Christmas present for them.
