Affinity Skilled Living and Rehabilitation Center

Oversight

The facility is woefully understaffed, with one nurse sometimes covering an entire floor. Aides receive no supervision or training regarding the importance of interacting with residents. One aide can sit in a room with residents and focus on her iPhone. They don't seem to understand that patients need to be involved, even if only a brief comment, to feel they are still alive. Too often the residents are left in the hallway with absolutely no social interaction, as if the residents were more ...

I spent two and a half weeks there and found the staff and medical personnel to be nothing but courteous, always willing to help (even in the middle of the night) and prompt to give assistance whenever I needed it. Their concern was obviously genuine and they often went the extra mile for me, as well as responding to the many questions and concerns of my son, who was my caregiver during my stay. The physical therapy was by far the greatest feature ... everyone challenged me to get me back on m...

Done With Their Lies

Not all that glitters is gold! Even though the facility appears to be eye appealing, the care leaves a lot to be desired. There is only a few staff that truly care. The rest do not treat the residents and family members as people with feelings. Times may be tough, but that does not give anyone an excuse to disregard humanity. They may say what you want to hear but don't believe anything until you see it with your own eyes! Nothing but empty words and unfulfilled promises. They consistently lie ...

My father was a patient on the vent floor for 2 days in November 2020. My father fell out of bed had his feeding tube dislodged and replaced by them which caused massive internal bleeding. He was left in his bed for 2 days bleeding and not sent to the hospital even after he asked to go. After 2 days the night nurse contacted me and asked if I wanted him to go and I demanded he did. He had two major surgery’s to stop the bleeding. If you honestly care about your loved one I would never send my fa...

This place is Just Awful! My brother was admitted for Rehab. He chose Affinity because he had stayed there about 5 years ago and had a good experience. Seems this place has decided to cut costs. Their Social Workers Chantel and Dana are extremely rude. They are a poor choice for the face of Affinity. The Social Workers wanted us to terminate my brothers insurance and put him on Medicare so they didn’t have to recertification him weekly. They didn’t care that when he was released that this actio...

This shift feeds baths does treatments etc and put pts to bed.SAFTEY IS MAJOR PROBLEM. PT FELL OUT OF WHEELCHAIR IN FRONT OF OUR EYES. NO one around they were ALL busy. Food they gave my aunt smelled horrible. Looked bad too For about 3 weeks this summer there was NO AIR CONDITIONING. NOONE COULD BREATH..consstruction work had ceil...

L.A.C.

Not good at all! 2 aides for 30 patients is unacceptable. Too many mistakes made by nurses, wrong meds for wrong people. Not enough attention paid to patients. Not enough PT-1 hour does nothing for patients. My husband wound up with a very serious Urinary Tract Infection due to him being left to sit in diapers all day long. When asked to go to bathroom he was told "it is not poop time now"!! Unacceptable, unacceptable, unacceptable. I will be sending letters to the state and any other agency I f...

My mother has been there for 8 years. When I made vist this past Monday, I found her sitting in the corner of her bathroom stripped of all of her clothing. She does not walk and cannot remove her clothes. The aide was no where to be found. After a search, she appears and says she had to "pee". She got a 2 day suspension. I don't buy it. I'm not sure what happened but I will never get the image of my mother sitting there naked, with her head hanging down. I was told this was a 1st inciden...

My Dad who had to be transferred to Affinity from the V.A. was sent to Affinity. we were so scared after reading the reviews to that had been posted fooled us into believing the place was a dump is 100 percent wrong. The home in my opinion is the bestt place my father could have been placed in Long Island. I see very caring oersonnell; clean ; and I can,'t say enough about the people; premises; and respitory team that has actually been trying to wean my dad off the VENTILATOR. I will never base ...

This is a terrible place to put your loved one. I wish I had never put my father in here. It's too late now.He fell four times in two weeks in this nursing home. If you love your family member do not put them in Affinity Nursing Home in Sayville.

Parent was at Affinity for a couple of weeks, Parent told us staff scolded her out loud when she had a bathroom accident; staff complained to her; staff made parent feel worse. On visits, staff appeared pleasant and caring. Parent cried to come home, Staff was often no where to be found during visits. Laundry was lost or wrong laundry came back although it had patient's name. Other patient said laundry lost blankets. Place was not well-heated for patients. Staff was not available for p...

The facility is clean and quite. That is the only good thing I would have to say about Affinity. My mother uses a walker for a condition with her feet, but she was there for rehab after a heart issue. In the morning she was plopped in a wheelchair and wheeled out to the lobby for the day and told that she wasn't allowed to return to her room or sit in the chair in her room. There she sat like one of the nursing home patients. When she asked if she could get a straw to drink some juice served ...

The best I can say is that this place is the anti rehab - All the patients sit in the hall way and do nothing all day. There are some nice nurses but that is all I can say about this place. My mother went there able to walk and stand and left with her legs bent and no longer able to walk. Seems to me that all they care about is getting the money from the insurance. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this place

I think Annie is a very low cost place to put your parent or loved one. I actually forgot to give my mother her medicine. They tried to give her someone else's medicine, I don't check Dan's to make sure that they're giving the medication read the correct person. They are so short staffed it's pathetic. My mother has weird over 45 minutes to go to the bathroom. Their service is now the reason of why my mother is being transferred. The only nice thing I can say about affinity rehabilitation is...

Thankfully family

My 91 yr old mother-in-law, Margaret, was admitted o Affinity from Good Samaritan hospital for lung issues. The staff was fabulous! She was always clean and dressed, including hair and nails done. They have a state of the art physical therapy unit. Kristen, Carrie, Erin,Wanna, Jessica, Deidre, Dorothy,Ray, and Lee Anne the social worker were so kind and helpful. I could hear them talk to other patients with dignity and respect. I know that I could sleep well at night knowing that she was ...

I MADE MY FIRST VISIT TODAY. MY BROTHER WAS BROUGHT THERE FROM THE HOSPITAL, WITH A BRAIN BLEED. WHEN I FOUND HIM SITTING BY HIMSELF IN THE LOBBY OF HIS FLOOR, IT TOOK MY BREATH AWAY, HE LOOKED SO BAD.HIS FIRST, LAST AND ALL IN BETWEEN WORDS TO ME WERE..."PLEASE GET ME OUT OF HERE. THE STAFF CONSTANTLY YELLS AT US...I HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR WATER FOR A LONG TIME....I DON'T SEE ANY DOCTORS HERE AND I THINK I AM GOING TO DIE HERE...PLEASE GET ME OUT AND TAKE ME TO ANOTHER HOSPITAL". THE FIRST THING ...

MY MOM IS A RESIDENT AT AFFINIITY AND I CAN TELL YOU I AM NOT HAPPY. THEY ARE UNDERSTAFFED AND THE WEEKEND IS WORSE. ALL MY MOM ASKED FOR IS SOME COLD WATER SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. FOR FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS A MONTH I THINK AT THE LEAST THEY CAN SUPPLY THAT. HER CLOTHER ARE ALWAYS MISSING EVEN THOUGH WE REQUESTED THAT THEY DON'T DO HER LAUNDRY, WE ARE THERE EVERY OTHER DAY AND TAKE IT HOME. IT SEEMS THE HELP IS TALKING ABOUT A STRIKE AND A LOT OF PATIENTS WERE VERY UPSET TODAY. IF I DON'T HEAR FR...

When I read the reviews ,I was worried that my Dad was going in for sub acute rehab. But I have to say the nurses have been wonderful. The pt department is great and is more than willing to discuss his progress. The aides have been attentive and social worker was very informative. I am there at least every other day for 3 weeks and really have not seen very little to complain about. I heard new management is has been trying to make improvements. And they have. It feels good to leave knowi...

My father-in-law was at Affinity Skilled Living. It was beautiful, with big, wide hallways and a nice courtyard. The people were nice there. They're very busy in a place like that. The rooms were very clean.

Because Affinity Nursing Home was only eight years old, we thought it was modern, so we placed my husband there. However, the family didn't like it very much. I wasn't impressed with this facility at all. They weren't that bad, they were just okay. It also wasn't that clean. The staff was unimpressive. They had problem with the organization and there wasn't enough staff.

Excellent Facility!!! Definitely recommend!

We like the Affinity Skilled Living and Rehabilitation Center. It's clean and very well-maintained. So far I'm very pleased with it.

Of all the facilities I toured, Affinity seemed to be the most hygenic and clean. The physical therapy department was impressive, and the nursing staff seemed very qualified and caring. We had a sit down meeting with the rehabilitation unit and they assured us that our loved one's needs would be met, if not surpassed. The recreation department also seemed very active and involved with the residents. Many of the activities they provided matched the interests of our loved one. All in all, Affinity...
