Overview of Sutton Gardens

Memory care services are offered alongside general assisted living, and pharmacy services are available on site. Residents receive chef-prepared meals served restaurant-style. Recreational activities focus on wellness, nutrition, and fitness. Housing options include private and semi-private furnished rooms, so families can choose a resident’s living space.

The surrounding area is very walkable, with a Walk Score of 92. Most daily errands can be completed without a car, and there are shops and services nearby. Flushing Hospital Medical Center is also less than a mile away, so there’s convenient access to medical appointments or emergencies.

State inspections by the New York Department of Health have shown a generally clean record over the years. One cited issue involved the handling of resident funds and valuables, which was addressed through an approved corrective plan. There were no violations in other inspections on file.
