Questions families ask

My father was just diagnosed with dementia - what should we be planning for on Long Island?

A new dementia diagnosis typically means starting to think about progressively higher levels of support: from in-home caregiving, to a Special Needs Assisted Living Residence (SNALR)-certified memory care community, to eventually possibly a nursing home. The Nassau (516-227-8900) or Suffolk (631-853-8200) County Office for the Aging can connect families to local resources and benefits counseling as needs evolve, and it's worth confirming any Long Island community marketing memory care actually holds SNALR certification via NYS Health Profiles.

I'm exhausted from caring for my spouse or parent - what support exists for caregivers on Long Island?

Both the Nassau County Office for the Aging (516-227-8900) and Suffolk County Office for the Aging (631-853-8200) serve as local NY Connects access points and can help connect exhausted family caregivers to respite options, including adult day health care, at a New York State median of $144 per day, and in-home caregiver support, at a state median of $35 per hour, which can relieve some of the daily burden without requiring a full residential placement.

We're running out of money to pay privately for my parent's care - what are our options?

Once private funds are running low, the relevant path for most Nassau and Suffolk families is long-term-care Medicaid, a separate, asset-tested eligibility pathway from general ACA Medicaid, which can cover nursing home care, Managed Long Term Care (MLTC)-coordinated home care, the Assisted Living Program (ALP), or NHTD waiver services, depending on the level of need. The county Office for the Aging (Nassau: 516-227-8900; Suffolk: 631-853-8200) is a starting point for understanding which of these pathways may apply.
