Memory Care Community in Woodmere, NY

"My mother looks happy and sounds great ever since I’ve visited her last week. The staff is very cheerful and kind and I’m glad to see she has good staff close by. She’s enjoying the activities here and talks about her new friends she’s met. I’m very pleased so far. Thank you."

"Beautiful Facility. Friendly and Loving Staff members 😊"

"When you find the right place, you just know! My father has been residing at the Esplanade of Woodmere for about 8 months, and we are beyond THRILLED! The building is beautiful. Everything is new and clean, and the maintenance staff is on top of everything that needs to get done. All staff show empathy and caring, and treat each resident with kindness and respect. You can tell that they want to be there, and they really make an effort to engage everyone. The food is apparently very good, and substitutions are made upon request. The most important thing is that my father says he is happy and that he likes it there very much. When he first got there, he was a shell of himself, unable to walk, sometimes just sitting in a wheelchair, staring, and drooling on himself. Now, he’s very lucid, walking with a walker, and just totally aware of what’s going on around him. It’s absolutely amazing! I feel such relief, knowing my daddy is close by, and being so well cared for, by the wonderful staff."

"I would like to thank all the staff at the Esplanade for the wonderful care provided to my mom during her stay. I know that her quality of life vastly improved while she was at the Esplanade and she often told me how much she enjoyed being there. She passed away peacefully as she always wanted. I am truly grateful."

"I was there working on a case. The staff is Awesome and Amazing 🤩 They were very helpful when I got there. My patient and I went to the day room where she was able to b active in playing games and enjoying music 😄🎶."

"I am very familiar with Assisted Livings since I moved many seniors in my career as a senior move manager. Moving a family member is a true test of understanding just how good staff responds to your needs. Yesterday, I moved my father-in-law into the Esplanade of Woodmere. After a long trip and due to the hour, we settled him in and went home. I had a few concerns and returned the next day to discuss my father-in-law’s needs. The staff at the Esplanade responded instantaneously. I am so pleased with the professionalism and care of the staff from the Executive Director to their maintenance staff. I laugh when I heard that the Chef herself addressed my father-in-law’s food requests. The Esplanade of Woodmere is clean, bright, efficient, warm, and welcoming. Yes, it hasn’t even been 24 hours, but as someone who has transitioned hundreds of seniors, I am very pleased with our first hours at the Esplanade of Woodmere."

"Absolutely beautiful, warm, and loving assisted living environment. There entire staff was warm and engaging. The director, Vanessa, patiently guided my family and I through their splendid community, and communicated their unique approach. During my tour she was ready, willing, and able to answer any questions we raised about our Father's care. She also provided insight into other areas that will better prepare us for transition as we plan to join the community at Esplanade of Woodmere."

"Very clean, and updated building. From ex director, reception, to nursing assts, everyone was extremely helpful staff."

"Aside from the fact that it is a beautiful and very clean place and the food is also pretty good, the best thing about the Esplanade is the staff. Everyone is beyond helpful and caring and considerate and hard working. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the people who run/work at this place."

"I must start off by saying I believe it was a great blessing to our mother and our family that we were able to find the Esplanade in Woodmere, NY. Hindel Jesselson, the Executive Director, from the time of our introduction and consistently throughout our mother's stay, provided a sense of relief that our mother would be taken care of by staff knowledgeable about aging and specifically dementia.
I'm a psychologist and I have worked in several geriatric settings and have also had experience with many facilities while procuring the necessary services that my mother needed. To say that the Esplanade and the staff in its entirety stood out from anything I've ever had an experience with, is beyond an understatement. From the moment I went on a tour of the community to the day that we bid farewell and thanked the staff for their loving and knowledgeable care for our mother during the last period of her life, every staff member did an amazing job. I was there at 7:00am and at Midnight and, it didn't matter what was happening in the community, the staff were always there providing loving and nurturing and medically knowledgeable care for our mother.
Do you know how you tend to get a sense of a place? What it's like during the day when it's bustling full of professionals and an abundance of staff? And what it's like during the late-night early morning hours? And how you just get a sense of how a place runs? Well, I truly believe that this facility is a rare jewel in a world that sadly too often looks to take advantage of people at the end of their life in so many ways, including mental, emotional, and financial concerns. There were no games or tricks or bait and switch techniques of a potato costing $1 today and $5 tomorrow. If that last sentence doesn't make sense to someone reading this, then consider yourself fortunate. Unfortunately, the world of elder care is steeped in vultures who prey upon the elderly and the emotionally vulnerable family members who love them dearly. Too many luxurious, shiny, and expensive facilities pledge everything to the elderly, but they do not deliver what they promise.
This is where the Esplanade stands apart from all those other dubious facilities – because the Esplanade does, in every way, deliver what they promise. We can never say enough about the outstanding care on every level that the Esplanade provided our mother.
Our family will be forever grateful for the outstanding care our mother received at the Esplanade.
The Dillard Family"
