From the beaches of Long Island, to Niagara Falls and the Finger Lakes out west, to the Catskill and Adirondack Mountains in the north, New York is filled with natural wonders and smaller, quieter towns.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 350 independent living communities in New York.

My father in law is doing okay here at this community, he is still adjusting, but they are caring for him well. We do feel comfortable with his move to this community, it is a nice place. [Removed] is amazing. She was great to work with, she was very helpful, and understanding. The front desk receptionist isn't very pleasant, but the rest of the staff is very kind, and helpful. His room is well maintained when we visit, but the guest restroom could be better maintained. They have been very accommodating, and this is a community I would recommend.
Read moreThe staff at Five Star Premier are terrific and based on our experience so far we would without a doubt recommend this community to other families. We love the special attention and things they do for the residents. There is live music performances twice a week and even sometimes three times a week. The other day when we came to visit they even had an aromatherapy session for the residents. They have excellent medical care from the staff, psychiatrist and nutritionist.
Read moreMy father has been at YAL assisted living facility for almost [date removed]. The worry of this transition from his home to a "facility" and all that that implies has proven to be unwarranted. He has found a new home. He lives with and has become friends with others who are in a similar life stage. He is well cared for and has great affection for the friendly and professional staff. The place is clean and has a homey atmosphere. He has as much independence as he can handle and relies on the services of the staff for what he cannot do for himself. It is a good balance. He particularly enjoys the many musicians who come to provide entertainment - he puts on his dancing shoes! I am and I know he is pleased and grateful for YSL. [name removed]
