    Summary of reviews

    Experiences at UHS Senior Living at Ideal vary by care setting and individual account. Families and residents describe respectful, supportive care in assisted living, rehabilitation, and long-term care, with positive comments about nursing and medical staff and particularly strong feedback about rehabilitation therapy. Other accounts raise concerns about timely assistance and resident monitoring, including an end-of-life care concern. Staffing capacity was described as a challenge at times, which may affect how quickly requests are addressed.

    Staff interactions and communication are commonly praised as welcoming and responsive. Families valued updates about infection exposures and quarantine changes, and one family described a helpful admission and relocation process. However, one applicant reported not receiving a follow-up after applying, and another family noted a delay in contact from a caseworker. A separate reviewer alleged unsafe wheelchair transport by an employee and inaccurate incident documentation by an administrator; these claims are not independently established by the material. One family raised serious end-of-life care concerns following a resident's death, alleging that aide conduct contributed.

    Dining receives mixed feedback. Some residents and families describe the food as good or very good, and the dining room is noted as an appealing feature where family members can join residents by arrangement. Other comments describe variable meal quality and a desire for healthier plant-based and non-dairy choices. Activities include bingo, outings, church services, recreation programming, patios, and community events; one family also highlighted a personalized celebration for a resident's 100th birthday.

    The facility is described as clean, with maintenance requests handled promptly, though one account raised a concern about room cleaning and more than one mentioned missing clothing despite labeling. Physical descriptions are mixed: some appreciate the dining and shared spaces, while others found the building older, rooms compact, or interiors subdued. A tour visitor also noted limited on-site therapy and physician access in the residential setting. During infection-control restrictions, quarantine measures were described as consistently communicated, but repeated exposure-related quarantine periods delayed one resident's transition and limited family visits.

    About UHS Senior Living at Ideal

    UHS Senior Living at Ideal sits atop a hill in Endicott, NY, on the old Ideal Hospital grounds, and you'll find that it serves seniors across Broome and nearby counties with a network that ties into nonprofit resources and plenty of volunteer programs, so people can get involved as much as they want. This campus offers different living choices, including 33 independent-living apartments at Ideal Square, a 35-bed adult care facility, a 35-bed assisted living program, and a 150-bed skilled nursing facility, with each area designed for different levels of care and some private and semi-private options for comfort and privacy. Safety and convenience get attention through features like individually controlled air conditioning and heating, emergency call systems in rooms, accessible bathrooms with walk-in showers, cable TV, Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, telephone, and plenty of communal spaces, so if you like a library, computer center, fitness and activity rooms, garden, and even a hair salon, you'll find them there, along with walking paths, flower gardens, a game room, and an outdoor courtyard.

    There's a full set of health services, with a certified geriatrician and nurse practitioners on-site at all hours, so residents can count on professional help day or night, and the nursing care covers things like medication management, bathing, dressing, transferring, and mental wellness programs, plus therapy services for rehabilitation after illness or surgery-physical, occupational, and speech therapy are available up to 6 days a week, along with daily recreational and therapeutic activities. Residents get three meals a day prepared by a professional chef, and dining can be adapted for special diets, including diabetes and other health needs, all served restaurant-style in a comfortable dining room. UHS Senior Living at Ideal's memory care services support people with Alzheimer's and related needs, and the structure of the place allows people to move between levels of care without a big disruption, which means aging in place is possible here, especially since the skilled nursing area offers complex medical care and even geriatric psychiatric evaluations through a link with Columbia University.

    Social life doesn't get left out here either, since there's a social director who plans activities and trips, and you get both community-sponsored and resident-run activities each day-there are music programs, outdoor events, games, a community theater, arts room, day trips, and access to transportation for personal and social trips, not just medical appointments, so people can stay active and meet others if they want, and if they have a pet, some are allowed in certain areas. Residents can enjoy housecleaning and laundry included, private bathrooms and large rooms, and laundry and housekeeping services, with amenities like cable, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and parking with spaces close to private entrances for easy access. There's also respite care for caregivers who need a short break, and the entire place keeps the wellness and comfort of seniors in mind from the grounds and gardens to the services offered.

    The building is designated as "Senior-Friendly" by NICHE, showing a strong focus on high-quality elder care, and the combination of short-term rehab, long-term senior health, and support for independent living means UHS Senior Living at Ideal covers a wide range of needs, always supported by skilled and caring staff. Whether you're looking for a place with lively activities and plenty of amenities, or you need advanced nursing care with skilled staff on hand, this campus at 600 High Ave, Endicott, NY, offers accommodations and programs that help residents live safely and with dignity.
