Key Review Excerpts
“The rooms are generous with kitchenettes and many have views of Central Park. The staff is friendly and caring and she is even able to play bingo with the help of recreational assistants.”
“At the time, Admissions at Vista seemed slightly disorganized but when we were finally able to get a tour, the premises were very nice and clean, with each resident having their own "studio," so to speak, with communal dining and activities.”
“The staff creates a caring, warm and supportive environment in which my dad receives the help he needs and can also continue to do the things he loves.”
