PERSONALIZED CARE
Helping Residents Thrive Through Every Activity and Program
Activities & Socialization
In the Transitions Neighborhood, activities take place in smaller, focused groups that reduce distractions and create a comfortable, engaging environment. Programs are thoughtfully designed to meet each resident's cognitive level, providing gentle challenges that stimulate the mind. We encourage participation and interaction, helping residents build connections and avoid the isolation that can sometimes happen with memory loss.
Nutrition & Wellness
Proper nutrition can be challenging for residents experiencing memory changes, as they may forget to eat or stay hydrated. In the Transitions Neighborhood, we closely monitor each resident’s meals and fluids, ensuring a balanced diet. Mealtime is also a chance to connect; residents gather in a warm, social setting, enjoying good food and building friendships that foster community.
Specially Trained Staff
Our experienced staff are specially trained to support residents through the confusion, anxiety, and nervousness that can accompany memory changes. The smaller, close-knit neighborhood allows our team to focus on each resident’s unique needs, preferences, and personality, providing personalized care and attention every day.
Specialty Programs
The Transitions Neighborhood offers a variety of specialty programs designed to support residents’ well-being, engagement, and independence. From SafeCare and Staycation to Path to Home, Companion Living, and the GrandFriends Program, each offering is thoughtfully created to enrich daily life, encourage social connection, and provide personalized support for every resident

See What Families and Residents Are Saying About The Arbors Assisted Living
My mother Sandy recent moved into the Arbors of Islandia and was having a rough transition from her life in Florida to a new setting in Long Island. There were challenging moments but the people of Islandia have been especially gracious and patient, listening to my mother and making her as comfortable and welcome as possible.

My dad, Gaspar, was at the Arbors at Westbury for over 5 years. It was the best decision my sisters and I could’ve made. They become one big family. From everyone that works there to all the residents they all look out and care for one another. It starts at the top. And each person that worked there genuinely became part of the family. My dad received great care there until he passed.
