Birchwood Suites is a wonderful, enhanced assisted living community. Our aunt is there, and she is so happy. The grounds are beautiful, its clean, and the food is great. The staff is very caring. My family member is in their memory care unit called Lavender Gardens, but they also have assisted living and independent cottages as well. What I love best about this place you feel warm and welcome when your there. A real family feel when you walk into the community. Also, from all the places we visited when we were looking around,this place is one of most affordable places on Long Island. Def a place to see!

My stepmother is currently at Birchwood Suites. I found the staff to be very helpful. The case manager, the people that man the desk at the front of the place, and the nurses, for the most part, I find them to be quite good and helpful. However, my stepmother is not so definite about that, and that's why she wants to move. She has certain complaints. One of the things she wants to do is see her own doctors, which she hasn't been able to do at Birchwood because they don't have transportation for that. But at the other place, she has been promised that she would be able to see her own doctors. I think the apartment is good. It was an estate that was converted into apartments. As far as the upkeep goes, it's pretty good, and maintenance seems to take care of the issues. They've had some trouble with the elevators at times, but that's been corrected. So they attend to things pretty well. My stepmother hasn't participated in a whole lot of activities. She prefers to do her own thing, so to speak. She is not pleased with the food; however, she's very particular, and as a result, she resorted to buying some of her own stuff like raisin bread, for instance, or nuts that she likes to eat. She has not given rave reviews of the food there. She says there's too much pepper on it, and she can't deal with spicy stuff. She has issues with the food, but I can't confirm any of that because I have not tried the food. I haven't had a meal there.

I visited this facility

My sister decided to stay home, but I went to Birchwood Suites. It looked like a nice residence, but the rooms were very small. The staff was wonderful, and very nice. However, they had very low couches which would be difficult for someone getting up, and I was disappointed in that. I'm a tall person with hip problems, and it would be difficult to sit in those surroundings.

My mother moved into Birchwood Suites. It's been a very positive experience and the people are nice. When we visited they showed us how things work and showed us a full tour of the place. She's very comfortable with the size of the facility. It isn’t too large, and she's more happy with the small community feel. The staff member who gave us the tour was very good, polite, attentive, and she seemed in good spirits. The place is more residential in appearance, and the staff members know everybody. They play memory games, they have people who come in and play music so they can sing along and dance, they play board games, card games, and bingo. My mother seems to like the food. They seem to prepare it well and it’s very appetizing.

I went on a tour. I’m looking for my aunt, who is not taking care of herself and needs meals and activity. The staff couldn’t be nicer - they were so warm and friendly and really took the time to listen to my concerns. I thought the place was more like a home. Which was nice coming from her own home. The residents that lived there were all interacting with each other during an activity and I got the feeling that they really enjoy living there. The price was very affordable too. It’s definitely different than the places that I visited before and I think it’s because it’s family-run, and I was told that they are very hands on, which is very important to me. I don’t want her getting lost in the crowd. I loved it and can’t wait to bring her in to see it.

Birchwood is in a beautiful community, pretty well-maintained, but more than what I would need at this time. The one independent living apartment just didn't look very inviting at all. The staff was wonderful, and it looked like the people there were treated wonderfully. The area is located conveniently halfway from both of my children. The staff was wonderful, they had plenty of staff to help with the feeding of residents, the doctors come to the facility, and it was well equipped. Everyone was extremely friendly, and they go out of their way to engage the residents.

Birchwood Suites was very pretty and very old but updated, and the landscaping was beautiful. It seemed like a really nice place but also like a hospital. The girl never got back to me, and I never heard that she went to visit my mother.

Birchwood Suites was a little run down, and I felt it was way too dark -- dark meaning there was no sunlight. It was a very dreary kind of atmosphere. I was given a very nice tour. I would probably would have considered it if they had the independent living apartment available. They were not able to take me to the independent living apartment. The scenery outside was beautiful, but inside it was dreary. It needed refresher.

We chose Birchwood Suites for my mom because of price, convenience, and cleanliness. The staff is very attentive, and we don’t have any complaints. The food is fine. I would recommend this facility.

Beautiful location and facilities. Shared bathroom and showers which would make my parents uncomfortable. If it was a private bathroom then I would have chosen it for my folks.

Absolutely beautiful! My mom is a resident in Birchwood and I am their biggest fan. Not only are the grounds and facilities beautiful, the care is incredible. Mom had a few unique issues and Avi and his staff were more than welcoming to us. This is moms 3rd Assisted Living (she was in some of the "bigger" and "nicer" but was never happy, now she is so happy and satisfied when I see her. I have only the greatest things to say about Birchwood and have already recommended it to 2 family friends.
