My Mom's New Home
reviewed on: 04/27/2019 by Geri OI have tears in my eyes (of joy and gratitude) while reading my mom’s letter to me. She has been in The Bristal at Lake Grove for about five months and she loves it. She said that she feels better than she ever has felt before in her life. She loves all of the activities, going out to eat, and recently going to Jakes (she had SO MUCH FUN). She never would have be able to do this when she lived alone- she writes that she does not feel alone anymore. She lived 55 years in her home and I never would have thought that she would have adjusted so well so soon -she raised her family in her home. But, we lived 45 mins away and if she had to go to the ER or doctor she would wait to tell us. Now, if she needs medical care she goes right down to wellness. She enjoys the delicious meals, made to order. She goes to balloon volley ball and Zumba. She just called me and said she saw the movie “Unstoppable,” and she loved it. She goes to the movies at least 2 X week. When she was living by herself, rarely ever. She has made new friends and is very sociable. I am indebted to the kind and helpful Staff, to Jennifer Rubino no who kindly took our hands and showed us the home, answering any questions we had and got the ball rolling in motion. I could never thank The Bristal at Lake Grove enough for bringing my mom back to me. This is a success story. Her quality of life and happiness are so much greater. Please consider The Bristal at Lake Grove. You will fall in love with it the way me and my mom have. You will never look back, only forward.
Know Your Loved One Will Be Cared For
reviewed on: 09/30/2021 by Karen RothWhen my MIL was unable to care for herself we had the difficult decision of finding an assisted living home. With stairs not being an option we were unable to have her come live with any of the family members. We toured 2 other assisted living facilities, and then The Bristol at Lake Grove and she instantly loved it. She said it reminded her of a 5 start hotel. As she settled in she enjoyed her meal companions in the dining hall , the movies and playing Bingo. She had her hair done in the salon and knew an aid was just a button away. Sadly just 2 1/2 months after she arrived COVID hit. Though we were unable to visit for several months we spoke often and she always told me how wonderful the staff was and how eager to make her life more comfortable. Sadly mom passed away this past December. The Bristol did everything they could to allow family visits and showed her the upmost compassion. I will always be grateful for the care they gave not only my MIL, but our family.
Nice place, overall
reviewed on: 04/23/2015 by AnonymousOverall things have gone well at The Bristal. The facility itself is wonderful, and everything is always well kept and clean with no noticeable odors. The staff here is great, everyone has been very friendly and professional. My only complaint is that they increased my loved ones care level shortly after moving in, which came as somewhat of a surprise. The facility is also on the expensive side.
We love it.
reviewed on: 06/25/2015 by AnonymousWe love it. My father is thriving there. He's gained weight. He's socializing more. He's so happy. He's clean shaven. The place is spotless and it's kept clean. I haven't met one person I haven't liked. It's better value than Sunrise. Not saying Sunrise isn't nice but they were charging more. They nurture him. Honestly, it's amazing. they call me for every little thing. They called me to tell me he didn't have razors and they got him some. They keep me very updated. I would recommend.
Great Place to Retire
