Independent Living Suffolk County

Brightview Independent Living

445 Broadway Ave Sayville, NY 11782

The very respected regional company Brightview Senior Living has built a new Independent Living community in the active South Shore town of Sayville. The modern design of the common spaces – activity rooms, gym, restaurant, and the beautiful lobby will make you proud to bring family and friends alike for visits. The apartments have various configurations featuring one and two bedrooms. The finishes in the apartments are first class, and each features a full modern kitchen with a washer/dryer combo also tucked away in the apartment. This Independent community is very active socially, with a well-attended Happy Hour for residents each day. The community organizes frequent trips, has a variety of daily activities, and allows pets. And if you need a little help with personal care activities, there are home health aides known and trusted by the community that can come into your apartment and provide care and support.

Lastly, this community is in a building that also includes Assisted Living and Memory Care apartments, which are all separate from the independent portion of the building and its activities. If a senior needs additional levels of care in the future, though, that care is available within the building, without the hassle of moving. Just switch apartments and age in place.

Chelsea Senior Living at Brookhaven

1 Meadows Ln Yaphank, NY 11980

This is a beautiful new community – just opened in 2021. The site of this community is one of its greatest assets – it is built as part of an exceptionally large development which includes standard apartments and condominiums, stores, recreation facilities, restaurants, shops – this is truly a miniature town! This concept in senior living is new and incredibly positive – residences for seniors built in the middle of the action.

The Independent Living apartments at Chelsea are good sized and include modern efficient kitchens and a washer/dryer. A variety of activities happen right in the building, and the many attractions in the surrounding development are available to enjoy. And if more care than can be readily supplied by home health aides is needed, Chelsea’s Assisted Living and Memory Care community is in the adjacent building.

Atria South Setauket

4089 Nesconset Highway South Setauket, NY 11720

This community offers Independent Living in a building separate from Assisted Living. Although the two types of accommodations share many aspects, the Independent residents have their own activities, dining, and building. This separation helps residents at Atria South Setauket’s Independent Living build their friendships with more active people – which are the seniors who are attracted to Independent Living. The central feature of this community is a lovely outdoor pool and garden – perhaps for making friends and entertaining guests three seasons of the year. The Independent Living building boasts various room sizes and layouts, meals are served in a common dining room, and a full slate of activities are scheduled each day. Some pets are allowed in this community, as are motorized wheelchairs.

The community also provides two meals each day in a comfortable dining room. Area transportation is provided, as are access to physicians and multiple events each day.
