Loretta Kassimatis

My mom was in Gurwin Rehabilitation in 2019 after breaking her hip. She was also dying from lung cancer and COPD. My mom received excellent compassionate care from all staff. The doctors, social worker and nurses were easily accessible and helpful. The PT Department were excellent. The facility was always very clean. Mom only complained about the food not being up to her standard. When we realized my mom needed hospice, the social worker and doctors were very compassionate and helped me to make all the arrangements to bring her home with hospice care so she could die in peace with her family surrounding her. Gurwin is the best and I give it a 5 star rating.

I visited my brother-in-law in Sunrise of Holbrook at the assisted living. It's basically a building with lots of senior citizens who need assistance. The room was clean. They were very respectful and very nice. It had a TV/lounge area, and they play games. It's all in this one building. They have a walking area and a place where you can have picnics. It was very clean, good, and sanitized.

My father was at Atria Hertlin Place. Their food and activities were excellent. The facility was beautiful, too. The only thing was, they had a water issue for a month. It was on and off, and my dad was not getting hot water in his shower or sink. They didn't even reduce the rent. They suggested moving him to another room, but he has Alzheimer's. I don't want to move him to another room and back because it might confuse him even more. I was a little upset with that situation. They have activities like shopping, movie nights, bingo nights, and dinners where they would dress up and have live music. They also have crafts, gardening, and an exercise room. They had excellent facilities. I know the hot-water issue was something internally with the building itself, and they had someone looking at it, so I don't really blame them. I get it, things happen, but the management could have been a little bit more understanding. We could have taken him to go get a shower at other places or take him to my house. They should have discounted his rent or done something to compensate for that. It was inconvenient.

My father used Right at Home Eastern Long Island. They provided light housekeeping, meals, and medication reminders. He has dementia and he has a good deal of suspicion about people in the house. Many times he would send them packing because he didn't want people in the house and didn't want to accept any help, but I personally liked them. They did a good job, and they did what they were supposed to do. Communication with the agency was very good. The coordinator would try very hard to keep me up-to-date, but there was confusion sometimes.

We're using Right at Home Eastern Long Island for my mother. They drive her, take her to appointments, and do light housekeeping. The caregivers are caring, responsible, and there's excellent communication. I'm a satisfied client.
