We are so grateful to the amazing staff at Actors' Fund for helping my relative through a very difficult rehab. The PT/OT's were so good with her, and everyone on the staff was very kind. We felt like they really cared about her and they basically brought her back to life. I can't say enough good things about the drs, nurses, PT/OT's and the rest of the staff.

My father was there for 10 days this past summer. The place is beautiful but the care is awful. He was there for rehab. They left him in bed all day. They did not pay attention to his congestive heart failure. He gained 10 pounds of water weight while he was there. When he was starting to have trouble breathing we took him back to the hospital. The looked shocked when I said I wanted transport to the hospital. He easily could have died there.

The Actors Fund Home is a great place. My mom was here for several weeks and she received the best care. The staff is caring and very helpful. The best decision we made was sending her here for rehab. A special thank you to January Young (food services), nurses Tracey and Martha, aides Marleney and Maria and the physical therapists. Everyone was very attentive to her needs and she received the best care. THANK YOU!!!!

My experience at the Actors Fund Nursing Home was nothing short of heartbreaking. I joined this facility through an agency to assist because of staff shortage. I traveled 30 miles to provide compassionate care and support to the staff & residents, I joined them with the hope of providing compassionate care to the elderly residents, but sadly, my time there was marred by discrimination, a lack of supplies, and the unimaginable neglect of the patients. From the moment I stepped into the facility, I felt like an outsider. Discrimination reared its ugly head, and I was subjected to treatment that left me feeling isolated and devalued. It's disheartening to see how such an important place for vulnerable individuals could harbor such prejudice. The shortage of essential supplies was a constant source of frustration. It's heartbreaking to witness elderly residents suffering due to the absence of basic necessities. Their well-being was compromised, and as a caregiver, I felt powerless to help them adequately. The most devastating aspect of my time at the Actors Fund Nursing Home was the neglect of the residents. These vulnerable individuals deserved nothing but the best care, but it was painfully evident that many of them did not receive the proper and required attention. The atmosphere was one of indifference, and it tore at my heart to witness their suffering. In the end, I left the Actors Fund Nursing Home in tears, unable to bear the weight of the injustice and neglect I had witnessed. It is my sincere hope that changes are made within this facility to ensure the residents receive the care, dignity, and respect they deserve. No one should ever have to endure the heartbreak that I experienced during my time there. The Lower Level Department should be ashamed ( The Director of Nursing , The nurses as well, there was one CNA who tried her best to assist me but there wasn’t much she could do). I felt embarrassed for even wasting my time to help, when there are plenty of other facilities closer to my home. I thought it was a nice facility with caring staff but apparently I was wrong. It’s going to take therapy to get over the discriminating remarks that were made as i take my career serious. I don’t work from my pockets , I work from my heart. Unfortunately, they tried to destroy my character and not compensate me. What a disgrace

My 94 year old mom was transferred to the rehab center of the Actors Fund Home from NYU Langone Health after surgeries about a month ago. She received excellent medical and personal care from the well-trained nursing staff. The food service was great as they were able to tailor the food to my mom's medical needs. The facility strictly observed Covid protection procedure. It may seem harsh with the 14 days quarantine requirements but the facilities' recreation staff went into my mom's room to provide personal daily activities. My mom has remained Covid free, then and now. The facility was even able to get her the Covid vaccine while she was there which is a miracle since I couldn’t get her to do it on my own. My mom was also able to enjoy the tranquil garden in front of the facilities. My mom went home after about 3 weeks of stay.
