  My parents have been living at the Bristal in Holtsville since June of 2019. The staff and management have been extremely helpful in supporting my parents in their golden years. From assistance with medications, physical therapy and special care needs they have created a safe and caring environment. The facility is very clean and staff go out of there way to be helpful. The restaurant offers a very large menu with daily specials and you can request just about anything.
  The senior staff have been fantastic in assisting my family with advice and support around healthcare, special needs, insurance support and other care for my parents.
  There is a wide range of activities on a daily basis, including day trips.
  Mostly making my parents feel safe, cared for and treated with respect and dignity.
  We are very pleased with the experience at the Bristal.

  Open letter to those seeking care at an assisted living facility.
  
  I must share my wife's as well as my own experience with the Bristol at Holtsville. It is natural that as anyone facing a sudden and dramatic change from a way of living that they have enjoyed their entire life to an uncertain future would be concerned, even fearful when they suddenly come to realize that all that has changed. The loss of ones freedom to come and go whenever or where ever they please, most likely on their own, has usually, quite suddenly, been taken away from them. There may be, quite naturally, a reluctance to enter into this “new world”. I know it was for my wife. With reluctance, fear and resentment but unfortunately with no option she was forced to accept the situation.
  
  Admittedly it took a while for her to accept this new “environment” but with the caring and professionalism of the ENTIRE staff, from administration to housekeeping to maintenance, as well as the folks in their “wellness center” she came to not only accept the reality of her situation but to actually THRIVE in it. Even though she has lost the comfort and familiarity of her home I can honestly say that she is actually better off in her new environment. One may question why, how could that be? Let me explain the reasons. For one, since we could not afford a full time nurse, which she would have required , as “home health aids” are neither equipped nor allowed to administer the level of care my wife required she is now being cared for properly, under professional supervision. But even more than that, the environment at the faculty has eradicated her fears and concerns about living in this new environment. For several years, like many seniors, few people “came to visit” my wife and as her mobility declined her ability to socialize diminished and she became “lonely”. The psychological burden of loneliness is difficult for those who are not in that position to appreciate and may be difficult for them to comprehend. At Bristol, although it did take two attempts, she has made friends, lots of them, and that is primarily what has actually made her life better.
  
  I would visit my wife on a weekly basis, probably not as often as she would like but being eighty years of age myself and running my own business that was the best I could do, yet quite incredibly staff members knew me and greeted me by name. At times I can't even remember why I entered the bathroom yet these folks at Bristol knew not only my name but they knew where my wife was whenever I arrived. I went to take my wife out for her birthday and the receptionist said, “you're a day early”, which I was. Incredible that staff would know my wife's birthday, something that demonstrated the level of care being afforded my wife. Whenever I would visit I would see that the ENTIRE staff, from maintenance to supervision would greet her, talk to her, as he would to them. SHE HAD FRIENDS, SHE HAD COMPANY, SHE HAD COMPANIONSHIP. Few things in life could be more important than that and the staff at Bristol has provided all that and more. Although it was a struggle for a few months in the beginning my wife is enjoying a safe and satisfying life, something I sincerely doubt she could have had had she remained in her home. Additionally the burden of her care has been largely lifted from my shoulders as I am sure that she is getting better care and a better life than I could have provided her on my own. It may be difficult at first but given a chance it will prove the very best solution to the inevitable effects of the passing of time.

  Hi, my elderly parents were living on their own and slowly getting worse. Mom had fallen a few times and were were very worried. My Social worker suggested Bristal Holtsville and they met with us right away. the place is fantastic and my parents love it. They moved in late August 2022. The Staff is fabulous and so accommodating . I feel soo comfortable knowing my parents are so well taken care of. Highly recommend them.

  Hi I met with Adam Walsh, director of community relations, today to gather information and view the community. It’s a beautiful place with a lot of activities to choose from. People in dining room looked happy and like they were enjoying their meals ( many choices). They have many different community rooms for activities- including a real bingo room with large light up board. Apartments were nicely designed. Staff appeared happy and like they enjoyed their work and worked well together. Adam was very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and transparent about fees and services.
  I have seen many communities on Long Island and I strongly recommend you take the time to visit here when finding a new home for your loved one(s).

  I would like to take this opportunity to commend the staff at the Bristal at Holtsville. Several months ago, my mother, Norma Bonardi, fell and was sent to the hospital. After her fall, she refused to leave her room, for fear of falling again. This situation persisted for several weeks. As you can imagine, my family and I were very concerned because we saw a dramatic decline in both her physical ability to walk, and her mental well-being.
  After discussing my mom’s situation with Julie and Nady, I was encouraged to see that they had a plan to help her get back on track. I am happy to see that my mom is not only able to get around on her own again, her mood and outlook seems to be greatly improved.
  Julie and Nady are to be commended for their patience and professionalism, as are Melissa and Maria for making the extra effort to ensure that she was bathed and for escorting her to her meals. I would also like to recognize Chris and Mary at the front desk for their continued encouragement and especially Mary, for inspiring her to have her hair done, which really helped to lift her spirits.
  Thank you for your staff’s professionalism and caring attitude, which is of great benefit to the residents and a welcome comfort to the families.
  
  Sincerely,
  Mary Bonardi-Sullivan and Family
