Chelsea Senior Living

I showed up early to drive around the building and it was horrible. It looked old and decrepit. The sidewalks were all broken, the paint was peeling off, they had rod iron railings. The location is also not good, it is right off of the highway. I cancelled the tour after seeing the outside and a week later they decided to call me. I explained why and they told me they were about to re-do the whole outside.

My beautiful aunt resides at Maple Pointe at Rockville Centre. She died [date removed] 36 hours after I received a call that she was not doing well. After speaking to them I was to believe she just passed in her sleep. Covid? Who knows, that’s what her death certificate said. Covid? Maybe it was the bills I received for a z pack and hydroxychlorquin. Was the meds administered? Who knows? Let’s fast forward to [date removed], first time I was allowed to collect her belongings. I was happy to finally able to give my aunt her last wishes, to pass her most precious jewelry onto her granddaughter and family members. I was happy to know through Numerous phone conversations that her belongings were locked up safe and secure in her room, with nobody being able to go in or out. Well it was not to be. Her room was devoid of all valuable items. No jewelry, collectibles not even a nickel in her wallet. Here’s what I want you to know before you put your love one here. After the police came and questioned the staff, I was to learn almost everyone has a key to her room and there are no cameras that would be if any help. Are they sorry? Sure. Will maple pointe do anything to try and make things right? Nope! I wish I could say something positive about this place but I can’t. The staff seem nice but beware they lie a lot.

There was a myriad of issues we had experienced with this place. Cleanliness, staff , food care are at the top of the list. We regret putting my father here. We subsequently moved him to another assisted living and he is very content.
