What Residents Should Bring

We want residents to be as comfortable as possible from day one.

Moving In

Packing for Comfort

Because space in rooms is limited, we have a list of suggested clothing residents should bring when moving to our home. Our basic list covers clothing for any weather, and seasonal clothing can be stored off-site by family.

  • Clothing should be "wash and wear" - nothing delicate or likely to shrink.
  • Clothes will be labelled when the resident arrives.
  • Family members are asked to help maintain clothing and keep closets and dresser drawers tidy.
  • North Queens is not responsible for clothes that are damaged.
