Read moreMy 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.

Paying for assisted living in New York City or any locale can require some careful planning. Most families combine a variety of private and public sources. We’ve compiled information and resources specific to the New York City area below. Or, for a broad overview of payment options, visit our complete guide to paying for long-term care.
The private pay options available to help you pay for New York City assisted living are highly dependent on your loved one’s financial situation. Private pay options include your loved one’s income — like savings, Social Security benefits, pensions, and investment returns — and potential sources of additional income from one or more of the following:
Note that in New York, you may be able to deduct the costs of long-term care on your tax return. In New Jersey, you cannot deduct room and board, but you may qualify to deduct medical expenses incurred in assisted living.
When families search for assisted living, a primary concern is safety. Families want to feel confident that their loved ones are properly taken care of and live in safe, secure conditions. This is why it’s important to have some understanding of NYC assisted living laws and regulations as you conduct your search.
The New York State Department of Health is the overarching agency that evaluates and regulates assisted living facilities in NYC. Its Adult Care Facilities/Assisted Living division oversees assisted living and other adult care facilities in New York City and performs regular inspections to ensure quality and safety.
New Jersey has an extensive list of assisted living regulations, which cover everything from licensing to resident rights and staff requirements. The New Jersey Department of Health performs random facility inspections to assess all procedures and resident care.

These guidelines include:
Vaccinations. COVID-19 vaccines must be made available to all residents, and staff must receive at least one dose of the vaccination.
Masking. All visitors and staff must wear masks and adhere to the CDC’s guidelines on social distancing.
Staff Safety. Staff must use appropriate personal protective equipment when called for.
Facility Cleanliness. Surfaces must be frequently disinfected, and instructional signage should be hung throughout the facility to encourage frequent hand-washing and other infection prevention practices.

New York offers a wealth of health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has several highly rated hospitals, including:
New York-Presbyterian is ranked No. 1 out of all hospitals in NYC, and No. 7 nationwide, according to U.S. News and World Report. It is affiliated with Columbia and Cornell universities, and has world-class doctors on staff.
NYU Langone Health is ranked No. 2 in NYC, and No. 8 nationwide, according to U.S. News and World Report. This hospital system features state of the art facilities, including an orthopedic hospital dedicated to joint pain and injuries.
Mount Sinai Hospital is ranked No. 3 in NYC, and No. 11 nationwide, according to U.S. News and World Report. This hospital was founded in 1852 and includes a distinguished geriatrics program.
Jersey City Medical Center, part of the RWJ Barnabas Health system, is just across the Hudson from lower Manhattan and ranks highly for its nursing excellence and leadership in LGBTQ Healthcare Equality. It is also known for its outstanding treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and congestive heart failure.
As a major metropolitan area, New York City has no shortage of options for public transportation. Many residents choose not to own a car, and the city is undoubtedly navigable without one.
Options for getting around town include buses, taxis, subways, and in many neighborhoods, walking can allow you to accomplish most daily errands. You can find subway and bus routes, fare prices and more at the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) website.

New York City is considered one of the world’s great cultural hubs for good reason. Within a short walk or subway ride, you can find countless museums, galleries, and theaters, as well as beautiful outdoor parks, and restaurants to fit every taste and budget.
For recreation, take a stroll through Central Park or the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. For fun with the whole family, consider a trip to the Prospect Park Zoo! Meanwhile, for those who appreciate the arts, no trip to New York City would be complete without a stop at the Metropolitan Museum of Art — one of the world’s great art museums — or perhaps a show at the equally world-renowned Metropolitan Opera.
