The staff at the East Northport Bristal is always kind. They always have a smile on their faces and are genuinely sweet and loving to my mom.

Independent Living Communities provide seniors with a handy balance between an opportunity to live an independent lifestyle and not having to concern themselves with the basic tasks of housekeeping and chores. Basic needs such as meal planning and housekeeping are handled by staff and a calendar of recreational and leisure activities is provided, allowing residents the autonomy to use their time as they see fit, free from daily obligations. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy an opportunity to live among peers, surrounded by others of similar ages and interests. Typically comprised of a private living area and a full kitchen, these communities offer residences with many of the amenities of apartment life but without the hassle. Guests can be invited over and entertained, and there will be more time to spend with them with the basic maintenance of daily chores out of the way. While policies vary between locations, a number of residences allow pets as well. If residents decide they would like to employ the services of private health care providers, they may always do so. There are a number of expenses and benefits to keep in mind when deciding on an independent living community.

The luxuries associated with independent living include fitness center & swimming pool, golf course, game/TV room, healthcare center, beauty salon & barber shop, community activities, security guards, and concierge services.
