The Bristal Assisted Living at Jericho sits as a three-story building on Jericho Turnpike, and it's got suites, studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, with floor plans called Bentley and Carlyle, and the rooms run anywhere from 379 to 948 square feet, giving folks options if they like something smaller or need a bit more space, and it's nice that they let pets in, too, as long as you can take care of them. The place looks after seniors who want independent living, need some help with daily tasks, or have memory and dementia concerns, and there's a specialized memory care neighborhood inside called Reflections, which has its own suites, extra safety, and programs just for those residents, including areas like a memory care common room with comfy seating, a fireplace, and bookshelves. Jericho's Bristal handles the basics for people, like laundry, cleaning, utilities, and apartment upkeep, and every apartment has its own emergency response system, with 24-hour security through the community.
Meals come three times a day in the country club dining room or at the Bistro Grille, and the kitchen staff focuses on healthy choices, with chef demonstrations and options for private dining, too. Folks can keep busy with a pretty full calendar of daily activities like art classes in the creative arts studio, card games and bingo in dedicated rooms, and even billiards. There's a cinema on-site for movies, a performing arts center, and a library for quieter times, and people often gather for live entertainment, holiday events, or the resident art show, which mixes things up. Fitness remains part of everyday life, with a center for exercise, a putting green, a swimming pool, and sidewalks out among the landscaped grounds, which include a gazebo and patios for fresh air.
If people need help bathing, dressing, or managing their medicines, trained staff offer support around the clock, and for those with diabetes or incontinence, or who aren't able to move around well, specialized care is available, with every care plan adjusted to what that person needs. The community holds a license from the State Department of Health, which means the nursing, ancillary, and security services meet state standards. Residents can use scheduled transportation for shopping or outings, get their hair or barbering done on-site, and join devotional gatherings if they want, either in the building or nearby.
Living spaces get regular housekeeping, and you get to pick from layouts that suit your style, whether it's a studio, a one-bedroom, or a two-bedroom, with all the big basics included, like heating, air, and electricity, and staff try to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where people know the team and each other by name. The Bristal Assisted Living at Jericho works to offer a safe, comfortable place where seniors' independence, health, and happiness come first, and there's plenty to do without feeling rushed, whether someone's looking to relax or fill the day with activity.
