Excellent care

We are very happy we made the decision to have our parents go to the Athenaeum. My father was there 3-1/2 months before passing away. His CHF was significantly worse over the final month, they accommodated his need for oxygen without problems. My mother has moderate/severe dementia and they have been excellent with her continued care going above and beyond what I expected from an assisted living facility.

Both parents

This was the only solution that allowed my parents to stay together. Mother 88 with moderate-severe dementia and father 92 with Alzheimer’s mild. Both required walkers and shower assistance. Mother also needed transition support. Care has been very good, attention paid to medications, food is very good as well. Several daily activities are provided. Small number of residents makes it more of a family feel for everyone.

The Athenaeum

The Athenaeum is the best assisted living facility in all of Central New York. Everyone is so nice and they provide excellent care. It is a sad day when a loved one can no longer live in their own home. The Athenaeum will make you feel so much better about this difficult move. Take a tour and check out this wonderful facility.

Classification and identity evidence

Why this community appears in these categories

Board & Care Homes

Current New York State Department of Health facility certification and general-information datasets, joined by Facility ID and restricted to active Adult Homes and Enriched Housing Programs with 5 through 16 overall certified beds. The official facility type and small capacity form a conservative Board & Care proxy; New York does not certify that marketing label. Regulatory operator fields are deliberately not inferred as an operator, and neither dataset establishes current availability, price, or fee.
