The Bristal at Holtsville offers Assisted Living and dedicated Memory Care. Residents with complex medical profiles—such as those who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, exhibit behavioral issues, stay up all night, or require wound care—receive oversight in a setting designed for safety. Staff can manage oxygen therapy and all levels of diabetic care, whether oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin, and the community accepts individuals with advanced dementia conditions.
Registered and licensed nurses are on site around the clock, backed by an on-call nurse for added coverage. All team members undergo background checks, and awake night-shift staffing supports continuous supervision. Safety measures include 24-hour security, fenced outdoor areas, alarmed doors, WanderGuard systems, pull-cord emergency alerts, and personal emergency response devices that can contact staff or 911 directly. On-site podiatry is available, and caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby to two-person transfers, including support for walkers and wheelchairs.
Apartments may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnished layout, individual climate controls, and cable service, though not every unit includes every feature. Housekeeping, maintenance, and laundry are handled by staff, allowing residents to focus on daily routines. Common areas are fully wheelchair accessible, enabling residents to move freely between their rooms and activity spaces.
Dining operates on a set menu with three daily meals prepared by culinary staff, and snacks are available throughout the day. Modified and managed diets—such as low-sugar or mechanical-soft options—are accommodated. For residents in the community’s independent living program, medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and a monthly meal plan add extra convenience without sacrificing autonomy.
Residents have access to on-site parking, landscaped gardens, a wheelchair-accessible campus, an exercise room, a movie room, and a barber and beauty shop. Religious services are offered within the community. Scheduled transportation is provided, and public transit stops are nearby, making off-site appointments or outings straightforward.
