The rooms are very comfortable and my mother even has a corner studio with 2 windows. I am so grateful to Elinor and Sam for being instrumental in getting my mom admitted and settled in with Lisa the head social worker. The staff has been very welcoming and I am so grateful. The residents can play cards, bingo, go to religious services, sit outside in nice weather, attend baking and other classes. The Boulevard offers its residents whatever level of assisted care is needed. They will help you get down to the meals if necessary, bath on a regular basis, go to the beauty parlor and much more. My mom is very happy there with the staff and food.

I cannot say anything about the inside the rooms for I never saw the rooms due to covid-19 no visits were allowed. My negative review is related to the very very very poor communication by the social workers and over all the staff. My husband is disabled and unable to walk because he had a surgery and got very weak. We took him there for rehabilitation NOT to DIE there. He kept calling begging us to take him out of there. He said they ignore his cries for help. They left him in filth and they starve him. They starve him for they ignored our suggestion and paid attention the notes of the notes that were written a month before. I kept telling them these notes are a month old. Now his health requires to eat solid food to get his energy to stand up on his own feet but they kept giving him a bowl of cream. Then I had to fix his phone and return to him . The nurse instead of giving the device to my husband she gave it to another patient. The other patient left the facility to transfer to another hospital and we found the phone through investigation miles away from the queens Blvd extended facility.

Please physically go and talk to staff members both night and day time staff before admitting a family member into this facility. The nursing home is well kept, clean, and fairly big but besides that I sadly did not see much more. My closest family member, my best friend was admitted into this hospital for about 3 months and we knew his days were coming to an end because of his disease. When I went to say goodbye, after going for months, this stood out to me the most, the reason why I am writing this review, a nurse, not the first time I had bad run ins from a few of them but one in particular stood out to me, I remember her exact outfit, face, and words as I walked out sobbing. She told me to "Control my Emotions". The blonde receptionist I went to with tears, comforted me. She is a god sent! This has ate at me everyday and I figured maybe it could help someone in the same situation as myself. Just be aware because sympathy was not shown to me once.

If I can give this place minus 5 stars, I would love to. If you love and care about your family members, please DO NOT have this place be where they get treated!!! Their care is to have many patients for them to get more money out of the insurance companies. Here is my experience that I have written to them directly: It is very disturbing for me to write this comment. First of all, I get a call from the admission's office at 11pm to get the information of the patient. But knowing that the next day is Saturday, I let it go. However, upon the arrival, there was no formal check in of any sort. I had to ask multiple people numerous times to get close to the answers. Apparently, the social worker didn't even bother finding me when I was there almost everyday. Two business days before the discharge date was given to us, I have lingered around the social worker's office to talk about the discharge. When I expressed my frustration of the arrival, she assured me of a smooth discharge. However, my mother has been discharged without her surgical equipments. After two phone calls and two different shifts of staff team, I am learning that I have rushed the discharge date and that there was a mistake on their behalf with the surgical equipment order. I am not only disturbed that I have put your facility to take care of my mom but now I am disgusted by the way this facility is ran. How can not a single soul of the facility knows what they are doing. It is just absurd that an organization doesn't have any system down to offer the best care for the patients and their families.

This is the worst place ever!!! People only work here to get a pay check!! They don't take care of your loved ones!!! Our elders need attention as we know one day we will get there once, seems the people who work here think they won't ever get to be old. They sometimes don't feed the elder, some require special attention as they need to be changed because they can't go to the bathroom themselves, they leave them without changing them over 24 hours, they take some to therapy with out changing them, taking them smelling bad. This place is dirty, it smells bad!! Whatever you do, DONT COME HERE!!!

My mom recently had a knee replacement surgery and our Dr. reccomended Queens Boulevard for the rehab required to get her back on her feet. The care there was very good. Our therapist Wendy was firm yet gentle with mom and had her walking better then me by the time she left. Our nurse Frankie was so helpfull and always had time to answer our questions. I also want to thank Beena from the fiscal office. They explained everything about our bill and seemed genuinely concerned about mom. The place was clean and didn't have any bad odors. Even the food was decent. It's not a 5 star restaurant but my mom who is very picky always had something she liked.

I have visited the facility many times. The nursing staff is extremely helpful,. The office help doesn't know how to handle anything. I waited six months for my sister to receive her social security checks there and finally had to do the work myself. They now have the audacity to say it was done by them. I cannot and will not accept their lies. If necessary I will report them to the state.

The facility is beautiful and well taken care of but the staff- that's another story. SUPER under staffed and employees are not helpful and rude. I am a frequent visitor because I currently have a family member residing at the facility. I've seen the nurses ignore the cries and buzzers from the patients rooms. There's been numerous amounts of times where I've helped a patient because the staff just didn't care or were "too busy" doing something else. The house keeping staff is LAZY. They will throw the patients clothing in the drawers and have even damaged clothing because hanging a sweater on a hanger was just too complicated for them. It's sad, these are the people we're suppose to trust to care for our family.

My mother is staying at Queens Boulevard Extended Care. The rooms are very nice; they're excellent. The staff is very friendly. We are very happy. I will not say the food is excellent, but it's OK. It's good and very neat. I like the environment. I like the furniture there, especially the way they set up the beds. Two of the beds were by the window and I liked it. Very bright.

My mom had surgery at the hospital for an inflamed gall bladder and then they found out that her coronary arteries are pretty blocked. But because she's already 90 years old they could not operate, so they took her to the Queens Blvd Extended Care. She needs care for twenty four hours a day, which we can no longer accomplish here at home. The staff is 50/50; there are some good nurses and some bad ones, which is the same in all the nursing homes. All in all, I would say that it's a pretty good place; as good as you can expect. They give her all kinds of medicines to keep her more or less alive. It's more or less a situation where they try to take care of her as best they can and she's getting adjusted to the place.

I visited this facility when I was looking for a place for my grandmother to stay for long-term care. I expected the place to be like a hospital because of its size and outdoor appearance, but it is actually very nice and homey inside. I went to visit on a Saturday around 3pm, a time when nursing homes are usually dead, but this place was bustling and full of families, kids, patients, etc. It was a warm environment. On each floor, the residents were crowded in front of the TV, but they looked entertained (versus at other places where the residents are forced to sit around doing nothing at all). I got a very good impression of the place. I spoke to a resident who said it was a "great nursing home" and all of the nurses I spoke to said they liked their jobs. Obviously they could have been lying, but they seemed sincere. The care of patients really depends on how happy the nurses are! Since my grandmother did not end up moving here, I do not know exactly how the care is. But I can say that I got a very good impression of the facility, and it is in a great location, right next to a bus stop and close to the subway (7). It is a huge facility that feels warm, homey, and hospitable. The rooms are average size.
