Many of the rooms have spectacular views of the Long Island Sound. There are either single or double rooms which are nicely appointed, clean and ergonomically designed for the needs of frail residents in the long time care as well as the rehab PT/OT residents. Staff was attentive and knowledgeable. Concerns addressed promptly. Active recreation team encourages resident participation. Providence Rest stands apart because of the wonderful serenity and dignity the Sisters of St. John the Baptist provide.

several relatives have used the short term rehab facilities. The rooms etc are very nice, the nursing staff is quite good (could be better could be worse... I'm happy). The PT/OT staff is exceptional. REALLY great folks. The Social workers are useless. Actually that may be giving them too much credit. Replacing their offices with a broom closet might be an upgrade.

we researched and visited many facilities before choosing Providence Rest. The facility is clean, neat, it does not smell of urine or feces. My mother was well cared for her by the nurses and staff. The Physical and OT departments are very good. There is a genuine air of caring about the place, and most of the staff seem to enjoy working here. You will always find the occasional employee who does not have the empathy or patience for dealing with a geriatric population. My Mother did not like the food at all, and they could improve on the overall quality. there were many activities to choose from, mass 3x week, a decent library, movies 2x week I believe, as well as trips out at least once a month. There were parties at least 1x month. The ground are lovely. I travel around the 5 boroughs to many nursing homes, and I am always grateful we chose Providence Rest over any other. We had piece of mind that our mother had very good care during the last year of her life.

We have decided to keep my mother at Providence Rest Inc. My mother went on Medicaid, and that's the reason why she stayed there. The staff and atmosphere is fine. The rooms are adequate. They do bingo, games, and my mom is doing rehab, also. Rehab is fine; I don't have any problems with it. The staff is very helpful and will do anything. They seem to be very nice to my mom, even though they are a little understaffed sometimes.

I am a friend of a resident in rehab there.I see signs of neglect and abuse.The resident has bruises on her upper arms from being treated too roughly.spends most of the day sitting in a wheelchair in the day room,has lost weight and now has a scratch under her eye which she states happened when a night aide was yelling at her and poked her finger in her eye.This friend of mine could not have scratched her own face because she does not have any nails!!!!!

The staff is excellent at Providence Rest. They have two beds in a room, and it is very nicely decorated and very clean. The food is very good. They do a lot of activities. They have music and movies. The overall atmosphere is beautiful. It is like a hotel.

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.
