Artis Senior Living of Somers

I had many wonderful experiences at Artis of Somers! The executive director, Terry, is exceptionally caring, empathetic, and helpful. The cheerful front desk staff creates a welcoming atmosphere. Their innovative memory care program truly stands out as they go above and beyond for every resident. Highly recommended! Allie Hauser

Pretty facility, good food. Disorganized, dangerous. The facility has told my mother's doctor and the nurses on staff that I am NOT her Healthcare Proxy repeatedly over 5 months. I am her daughter, I am a medical doctor and I was legally designated by my mother to be her healthcare proxy 15 years ago. This lasts indefinitely in NY State unless changed by the patient. My siblings and I have clarified this point and sent the paperwork to Artis multiple times. Many phone conversations. I was assured this has been taken care of and that the correct information is in her chart. It still is not. Staff has hung up on me when I have called for my mother's labs and medication list. Their nursing staff continues to tell me "I can't talk to you about" her healthcare. Their doctor asked me "what do you want?" when I called to address healthcare needs that were not addressed. This aggressive, poor communication is getting in the way of my mother's care. It is also not lawful as I have been legally designated by my mother (who now has dementia and needs assistance with decisionmakeing) to be her healthcare proxy and advocate. They are so disorganized that this is how they care for their residents and treat residents' families??? I would not recommend.

Alls 5's, we are so happy with Artis! All residents are memory care. Fairly small which is nice so everyone is close and knows everybody. New facility. Bright and clean.

All are 5 , Artis is amazing. The care the staff the activities. Rooms are a comfortable size for 1 person with their own private bathroom. Pluses you can bring your own furnishings if you want and decorate to personal taste. Rooms are kept clean by staff on a daily basis. Meals always smell good and look great. My father in law has also commented on how good the food is at Artis. They also have snacks and juice available anytime and the residents can help themselves if they wish or a staff member can assist if needed.

Artis Senior Living has been a godsend for me. My brother is always clean, his room is always clean, and the staff makes sure he participates in activities. The staff are wonderful and very communicative, calling me frequently with updates on him during his first month there and anytime something unusual happens thereafter. The atmosphere is very warm and intimate, not institutional. I highly recommend this facility if memory care is needed.
