Types of care available in Bay Shore, NY
Cleanliness was, I would say, above average. That was the thing they did the best. The only activities they had consistently were movies, bingo and once a month a one man band kind of thing. there were two people to a room, and they could bring a tv or dresser but the rest was hospital beds and felt very much like a hospital.
The meals are fine, just typical hospital type food. The doctors have called as they've seen her, but nobody else has really reached out in the week she's been there.
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. The facility is ALWAYS spotless and beautiful to live in or visit. The only area I see occasional improvement for is the food. It is not always hot and more fresh veggies needed. The personal care and overall facility is excellent.

Nursing homes, also called skilled nursing facilities, provide long-term care for seniors with significant physical or mental health conditions, and short-term care to people recovering from an injury or hospital stay. Nursing homes provide personal assistance and medical care from licensed professionals. Services in skilled nursing facilities often include:
A nursing home is a building that offers lodging to at least two persons who are not related by blood or by marriage to the administrator. This type of residence provides its inhabitants with around-the-clock care by on-site nurses. These caregivers offer care for people who cannot adequately care for themselves because of the effects of aging.
Nursing homes are a familiar and comfortable care option for persons 65 years and above, however nursing homes will commonly allow individuals 55 and above (a rarity in the realm of senior care).A significant amount of occupants tend to be single women who have less social support, and about half of nursing home residents are older than the age of 85. As a resident of a nursing home, you can expect the right to spend time with visitors, to manage your money, get proper privacy, property, and living arrangements, and exercise your rights as a U.S. citizen. There are some services that may come at a cost to residents which can include special care services not included in the facility’s Medicaid payment, personal clothing, and specially prepared food. Often times persons might prefer life in a nursing home due to a physical or mental condition that makes it difficult for them to accomplish the activities of daily living. The most frequent mental condition experienced by nursing home residents is dementia, which can hinder their memory recall, decision making abilities, and and their sense of familiarity.
