Daughter in law and friend of an elderly resident

I have had two incredible experiences with the Boulevard ALP. My mother-in-law lived there for about three years and a close friend moved in there for about a year and a half as well. The staff was extraordinary. The administrators were empathetic and kind and I always knew I could count on them. There were several aides who felt they could not do enough for the two women I knew. They would greet them warmly and make my mother-in-law and my friend feel like a million dollars (though they were both on Medicaid). The floors are carpeted and lovely and the corridors contain comfortable seating arrangements as well as a table where residents, both male and female, sometimes play cards. The food was good and very plentiful and there was effort made in making sure the residents were happy with their table mates. I often saw camaraderie among the residents themselves, and many were very happy to be there. It often seemed like a girls’ club. One administrator made it her business to walk through the dining room during each meal and she would stop and say a word to anyone who might be feeling I’ll at ease. This same administrator, who is not a mental health “expert” helped assuage my mil’s depression much to her, and the family’s, delight. Our entire extended family will always be grateful.

My husband is doing fine in Long Island Care Center. He has no complaints, so we're happy with it. It could be a little bit improved. I've only seen him a couple of times, and they seem to like him. I haven't seen his apartment. Because of COVID you're not allowed in the rooms, but he says he's comfortable. His therapy seems to be going well. He goes up and down. I've talked to his care person, and she's very nice. So far, I really have no complaints. They have not been that communicative. They haven't really called me. I've had to call them more often than they've called me. Other than daily rehab, he doesn't seem to be needing any other special care. He seems to be OK with the food. He hasn't complained with anything specific or complained at all.
