Atria West 86

My mother is 99 years old and has been at Atria West 86 for approximately 2 months now. She says it has been a godsend and that the staff is wonderful and takes excellent care of her. She loves the food and enjoys going to the dining room three times a day. Her apartment is comfortable and cozy, and she is happy to be there. Special.shoutout to the nurse and wellness team, who have done a beautiful job of bringing her medications to her,.escorting her to meals, and answering all of her questions at any hour of the day or night. Heartfelt thanks to Atria West 86th Street staff for making her transition to assisted living as painless as possible, and for keeping me informed and reeassured throughout her adjustment process.

Everyone is friendly, kind and thoughtful. Room sizes are good. Like all of New York everything is a little small. But it's all good.

The staff is respectful, caring, and responsive to my Aunt's needs. They are open to listen to any of my concerns and take corrective measures where necessary. The facility is well maintained. Each apartment is well taken care of. The maintenance and housekeeping staff is very responsive in a timely manner. There are always beautiful plants and flowers around and the meals are always satisfying and varied to all palates. There are monthly meetings that give the residents opportunities to give and get feedback from the Administrative staff. The Care Team works diligently to make sure that the residents are well attended to. The Front Desk is always welcoming and responsible They go out of their way to make sure residents, families and visitors are responded to with friendliness and care.

I would confidently give them a full 5-star rating. The three months my Aunt spent at Atria West 86 were truly exceptional. The staff displayed unparalleled attentiveness, kindness, and accessibility. This environment has been a perfect match for my Aunt, a social individual who thrives in a place where she feels respected and well-cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend Atria to others seeking outstanding care for their loved ones.

Atria West 86 is a beautiful community located just a few short steps from the picturesque Riverside Park. However, the feature that really sets it apart from other Assisted Living facilities is its incredible staff, who are helpful and engaged with residents in a variety of activities I have only seen here. As a guest lecturer who visits the community frequently, I have noticed that all programming is top-notch and gives residents a sense of independence and a fulfilling lifestyle that is unique. There is a positive energy to the place. I would highly recommend Atria West 86 to anyone who is looking to find a community that feels just like home.

I was excited given I needed assisted-living due to my health, having heard amazing things about this place for years being from NYC. Sadly, it was a very mixed and disappointing experience lasting only 5 months not my lifetime! Some staff were helpful, kind and supportive; others nasty, lazy and even vindictive to others! Also, several staff left while I was there because of the significant turmoil going on; hence service became even more inconsistent (ie few missed meals and several missed Saturday laundry services, etc) The best part was my social worker (who then left soon after I arrived!), my personal housekeeper, one maintenance man and a few front desk staff, a couple people in management & my nurses. The food was delicious plus the gorgeous rooftop/views amazing! Some management were incredibly absent and/or difficult (ie housekeeping and business office) Also, some “rules” and positive features even in print (handbook) on arrival randomly changed or stopped without warning.

They get all 5 stars. My experience with my Aunt as a resident at Atria West 86 for 3 months has been wonderful. The entire staff has been attentive, kind, caring and accessible. It is a perfect fit for my Aunt who is social person and in an environment where she is respected and cared for. I would definitely recommend Atria for others.

The facility is nice and the clinical staff are quite friendly and helpful. The problem is if you need to reach anyone in the administration forget it. They don't respond to calls or emails, they don't make repairs in the room, they raise the rates without telling you and then threaten to have you thrown out because you didn't know about the raise! All that for 14K a month for a studio apt!

We picked this community because, it was the closet location. It looked like a really nice place. It was beautiful, and well maintained. The staff was there to help, and bring my loved one down for meals, They got what they needed.

I am a resident of Atria West 86th for 2 months now. I was unfamiliar with the routine of the facility and was unsure whether I will like living here. Since admission, I have been receiving the assistance that I truly need. I moved in with several medical health conditions, but has improved with ADLs support from care staff. Everyone has been courteous and knows your name. I too enjoy the food. I feel comfortable and safe living here and could see myself staying long term.

I have been residing at Atria West 86th for 7 years and my experiences has been wonderful thus far. I truly enjoy the programs in the community. I take advantage of the in-house activities and outings as I like to keep myself socially active. Like today, I joined a group of our fellow residents to Ellis Island. My favorite activities are the 3 meals per day. The food are great and the menu changes all the time. It's great not having to do any kind of housework as services such as housekeeping, maintenance, and personal care are provided. Most importantly, the community handled the Covid pandemic very well. Staff kept us safe. I call Atria my home and I consider the staff and residents my family.

I am fairly new to Atria West 86th and has been living here for 2 months now. It has been absolutely positive. The staff are caring and helpful. They are available to help as needed.

They have atentive staff. The food is very good. They are a bit slighly understaffed. Overall, I chose Atria West 86, because of the quality and geography.

We chose Atria West 86 because it was super clean, the friendliness of all of the staff, and they were super accommodating during the move in process and we really appreciated that. When you walk in there was no bad smell at all. [name removed] took us around and all of the residents loved her. She sat down and talked to us for a while and you could tell that she really cared and still does to this day, she is very responsive if I ever reach out to her. It was an incredible first impression and experience and they helped us out so much. I would definitely recommend them to other families looking.

When I die I don't want to go to heaven, I want to go to Atria West 86. The food is by far the best out of any place else I looked at. The other places I looked at had people in the dining room who were sitting down, but not talking with one another. At Atria, they sit and converse with each other. I find that the people are helpful with each other at Atria. When my friend moved in they told him all the things that weren't on the menu, which food was good, and which activities were the best. The residents seem more "with it" than other places and it feels more like living in a hotel. Other assisted living communities felt like living in a nursing home. They have a rooftop garden area that is absolutely amazing. You can see the Statue of Liberty and the George Washington bridge. It sits higher than the other buildings, it's just phenomenal. They also have a resident-run vegetable garden and like most places they have movies in the evening, but they a committee that picks the movies.
