Overall experience with Amberleigh has been positive. The facility is clean and her room is spacious and comfortable. Responsiveness to call button is sometimes lacking probably reflective of staffing levels. The meals are generally good but nothing special. Overall, I would recommend.

Our family is extremely pleased with our decision to place my Mom in the care of Amberleigh. With Mom coming from Florida after the recent hurricane, we were grateful to have [name removed] guiding and supporting us through the difficult time. [name removed]was accessible, patient, and took the time to answer any and all of our questions. She helped us through the entire process and helped to ensure Mom's transition was as easy and comfortable as possible. [name removed] professionalism and sincerity, along with the competent and caring nursing staff of [facility removed], we are truly grateful for Amberleigh and will continue to share our wonderful experience with others.

Overall a nice community
Overall we are happy. The common areas very clean. The staff that is there (shortage!!) We gave the care services a 4 only because I think they have some growing as a company to do. The meals are a 3 at best, the dining situation has been the biggest let down. We address this regularly, very degrading how meals have been delivered. Not appealing, not even edible at times. Continued improvement is needed. The value for cost is a 4 because of the meal issues and the additional cost to my parents

Overall experience good, food quality needs improvement
The biggest issue is the food. My children worked at Amberleigh when they were in high school. They were properly dressed and trained. There were 2 menu items every night plus alternate choices. Now the menu consists of lots of pasta, ground beef and chicken legs. The dining room runs out of things. Sometimes coffee and milk! There are several stores a stone's throw away. The food budget has been cut. The cook has to make do with what they have. My mom says it's getting better. She is an eternal optimist! She says the people ( residents) are what makes the place great. Also her apartment is lovely!

The Amberleigh
My father's experience with Amberleigh, was terrible? He was only there for <3 weeks and it cost him over $[removed] and they would not give any back. We had everything out of the room so that they could re-rent the room at the beginning of August and they still would not refund him any of his $[removed]. So my father's experience and my experience with Amberly was terrible and I would never recommend anyone to go there.

Friendly and caring staff
The staff is great, however they are short staffed and overworked. There is a high degree of staff turnover, which is very concerning. The meals seems to be inconsistent. My mom likes some of the meals but says the "hot" meals are often cold by the time they are served. My mom is taking advantage of and enjoying the wide variety of activities. The activities coordinators are wonderful. It's a nice apartment rather than simply a single room, which makes it very homey and comfortable. The transportation to medical appointments is a big help and the driver (name removed) is wonderful.

Good but not great
It is less expensive than nearly all of the independent living senior communities in the area. In this regard it is a good value. However in the 20 months that I have lived here, my rent has been increased twice, and not at the time my lease would renew. Management (which includes the corporate owner, [name removed]) doesn't really care about what we want or how we feel. We have an elected residents council, but it has no real power. More often than not it is very stressful living here. The dining room was the worst example, although organization things over the last couple of months have gotten better. But all I hear from people who have been here for more than three years was how good the food was back then. I know of one woman who has been here 14 years and has decided to move to another community. I would stress the aspect that it's a very friendly place to live. I am not unhappy that I decided to live there. I love my apartment: it has two bedrooms, and the second one is large enough to accommodate my bookshelves with my books, vinyl records, CDs and DVDs.

Think Twice before you pick
Great sales pitch! Don’t Trust what they tell you. Mom was there for 10 months food is terrible I wouldn’t feed it to my dog. She didn’t get her showers unless we complained and was supposed to have them two times a week. We were paying for level three care one day I was told by a nurse she wasn’t on level three she didn’t know, At that level she should’ve had care helping her get dressed and being taken for meals Amongst other care she should’ve been getting at that level she was not. she sat in that room with no one checking on her. Unfortunately mom passed away we were told we had to give a 30 day notice how do you do that? In the end we had to pay for two weeks. They can’t keep there staff no one returns call. Do your research before you put your loved one there.

The Peace of Mind that I needed!!!
The staff was amazing...from the front desk to the engineer who fixed the TV... to the beautician who offered to do her nails...I felt like they really wanted to help ME!!!...by taking good care of my mom...my main concern was about her eating ... the meals are included but she's not mobile enough to get to the dining area... So what do they do???!!!.. bring her meals to the room... That sold me!!!... When we entered the apartment she was in awe of how nice everything was... She's already had 2 respite stays... Thank you soooooooo much for the peace of mind you all provide!!!

Our Experience
Overall, the experience at The Amberleigh has been pretty good. However, the food quality has been poor for awhile. The place has gone through quite a bit of kitchen staff. There was recent turnover again. Corporate came in and said that they are trying to improve the food and dining service. The past two weeks have seen some improvement, however, at the 2nd dinner sitting the kitchen ran out of food for the last table and four residents did not receive dinner. Quite a few residents did leave because of the food difficulties. The activities are pretty good. They bring in outside entertainment, Saturday night is movie night. The hairdresser, [name removed], is wonderful. As for the value for cost, my mother has had 2 rate increases in less than 2 years. Because of the food, a lot of chicken, pasta, rice, unless the food greatly improves I think it is overvalued.

I moved my sister in to Amberleigh about 6 months ago and everyone has been fantastic. First of all i[name removed] s amazing, she is so helpful and is always there to answer any of my questions and always gets things done. From when we first moved my sister everyone has been great, from the little things like hanging pictures for her to care has been excellent. Whenever we call they always are always there for us which helps with the stress of moving a loved one away from their "comfortable" home and to something new.

Review for The Amberleigh
They need to get their food service situated. It's a regular occurrence that they don't even serve meals and/or run out of food. It's nice, but the food situation is a huge disappointment. These folks are counting on (and paying for) 3 meals per day and not getting them. It has a drastic impact on the health and wellness of the residents. They appeared to have everything needed.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the New York regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about New York regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored The Amberleigh 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
