Now I would not recommend staying there for over a week or two. Although the staff are nice, they are overloaded with patients and can have 9 patients at a time.

The nurses are nice too but too busy to tend to the patients except for giving meds. I would rate this place about 2.4/5.

IF I could give this place zero starts I would. II am extremely disappointed with the experience…read moremy parent had at Fulton Commons. From the moment we arrived, the condition of the room was alarming. The bedside nighttable had a white film on it that looked like dried milk. I ended up cleaning it myself with hand sanitizer and paper towels because I didn't want to place any personal items on a surface that looked so disgusting. The wall beside the bed was filthy, covered in dried blood and other stains (see attached picture). The staff was another major issue. The workers at the front desk were rude and acted like you were bothering them whenever you asked a question. If they even bothered to answer, it was with an attitude. On the positive side, the nurses, physical / speech and recreational therapists were nice and professional, but unfortunately, they were the exception. The private aid we hired to sit with my parent had her own disturbing observations. She said when she requested a diaper change for my parent, she was met with an attitude and the diaper wasn't changed for a shocking 7 hours--from 11 am to 6 pm. This is totally unacceptable, especially for someone who needs consistent care. After seeing all of this, it's hard not to conclude that this is a Medicare-draining facility more focused on cutting costs to maximize profit than providing decent care. A Cash Cow for the owners. If patients ask to be taken to the bathroom, they're told to just relieve themselves in their diapers. This is not only disrespectful but also likely contributes to unnecessary health problems like UTIs. If I had known how poorly run and filthy this place was, I would have never considered placing a loved one here. It's clear they're more interested in lining their pockets than actually providing quality care. I deeply regret this decision and would strongly advise others to look elsewhere. Would not recommend.

I had an overall positive experience staying at The Grand Pavilion recently for about 7 weeks. Due…read moreto a back injury, I wasn't able to walk when I was ambulated there from Winthrop in Garden City last December. When I finally did leave, it was walking only with a cane and heading back to surgery from a pinched nerve that could only be corrected from surgery. PT and OT were amazing and very patient with me the whole time I was there but unfortunately, the only result for me was surgery from my previous injury. If it wasn't for the therapy I got at Grand Pavilion, I probably wouldn't have been able to walk out of there to get the further care I needed. The place was very clean, I never had any issues in the public areas as well as my room/bed area. If there was ever any garbage or mess, it was from the residents themselves. I found help from all the aides, they were friendly and usually available to help with all the little stuff. Bibi and Marie were outstanding and I was lucky to have their help. The nurses on all the shifts were also friendly and tried to help with everything when they could. It's a lot of patients pers floor and per nurse. Some were better than others and had their routines down and people taken care of in record times, I'm thankful for Kirk, Amelia, Nurse Rodriguez and even Scotty. There are many others as well as nurse supervisors, maintenance staff and aides. Finally about the food. I don't understand why people don't talk more about it. The food at The Grand Pavilion was outstanding in my opinion. The dishes were a wide range daily and they offered many alternate options. The menu was basically gourmet food, not dry, plenty if you asked for more and delivered fairly on time daily. This is an overall positive review but I did have a couple issues early on with my medication that were always addressed. The concierge team, Avi and Jem were always around if I needed someone to help fix something. Also when I needed to go out for doctors appointments or even to get a haircut or dinner with my family, it was never an issue. I was on the young side at nearly 50 for one of these facilities and was able to advocate for myself so that could have helped with my stay. I see what people mean about the care the elderly get when they are more or less dumped off in a nursing home but what I saw were people being fed, taken care of, changed and looked in on. There were several difficult residents in my time there but even they received great care in my opinion. The older your loved one is, the more research I would suggest anyone do but I personally didn't experience anyone being mistreated or neglected. Overall again, positive experience and I would recommend yes for a love

My father was in Mercy Hospital for almost two weeks when we recognized he was not going to make…read moreit. The Hospice at Mercy said he was not critical enough for their in-patient services, so we had the choice of Dad going back to his Assisted Living home or to a nursing home to die. Assisted Livings are a social model where people live who need daily assistance. Dad had been at the AL for 1 1/2 years at this point and it was his home. The hospital Hospice handed me a list of agencies that provide Home Health Aides for end-of-life work. The only option was to hire a third-party care agency to administer this kind of care 24/7 for as long as Dad lasted. After a maddening 2 days calling every agency on the list, THANK GOD I found Better Home. Right away, they were a cut above many of the agencies I talked to. The intake person was competent and thoughtful of my difficult circumstances and worked to guide me though several decisions. They also could provide experienced Aides within a couple of days as opposed to several agencies I called. Paying immediately before even discussing what was needed was the opening gambit from one agency I encountered! At the AL, we were so lucky to have the Better Home Aides who really knew their business. They were competent, caring, informative and experienced. Dying is hell and witnessing it is sobering. Dad lasted 1 1/2 weeks in Hospice and my brother and I were there participating in his care almost every day. The Aides welcomed our presence and educated us. They were respectful of our needs in letting go of our Dad. I am so grateful to BH for the massive assistance they provided. Especially, I want to mention and thank publicly Sonia, Victoria, Leonard, Delphine (overnight), the very kind intake nurse who came Day 1(cannot recall name), and everyone I dealt with in the office such as Karen and the Financial person (cannot recall name). Their competence across the board made such a difference during the maelstrom of dying. Dying at the AL had hidden costs. The Mercy Hospital Hospice Good Shepherd provided Medicare-covered Hospice Services such as having an RN (Jerry) very helpfully guiding us. GS also provided the bed, oxygen, and some supplies to get us started. They provide a mandated 13 months of bereavement services, also. The AL provided "Room and Board" (no board as Dad could no longer eat), cleaning, and did the massive amounts of laundry we had. They also lent an Aide here and there to assist turning Dad. Long term AL Aides who knew us came in to cheer Dad and us, but were not involved in the care at this point. The rest of the work and direction was provided by the Better Homes Aides I mentioned above. The 24/7 Aides were $32.50/hour, but that added up to approximately $5000 for the first week. The AL had already been paid for the month so this third-party care was additional. There was also lag time in getting needed supplies, so I had to go to a med supply store myself a few times. The hospital Hospice told me they would "pick up" 4 hours of care/day from agencies on that phone list that I was originally handed. That was eventually true, but I had to fight for that discount during the 1 1/2 weeks Dad was dying and I was at his bedside. I wholeheartedly recommend Better Home for many of the reasons stated above. There is cost involved but the competent help they provided was invaluable to our family.
