Questions families ask

What's the difference between standard assisted living and memory care in New York?

Standard assisted living in New York is licensed as an Assisted Living Residence (ALR) under 10 NYCRR Part 1001. Memory care is not a separate license; it's delivered through a Special Needs Assisted Living Residence (SNALR) certification, an additional certification an ALR can obtain to serve residents with dementia or cognitive impairments per an Individualized Service Plan, regulated under the same Part 1001 rules.

What's the difference between a nursing home and an assisted living residence in New York, regulation-wise?

Nursing homes are licensed under 10 NYCRR Part 415, Nursing Homes - Minimum Standards, a distinct regulatory chapter focused on skilled, medically intensive care. Assisted Living Residences are licensed under 10 NYCRR Part 1001, and can only exist as an additional certification on top of an already-licensed Adult Home or Enriched Housing Program, themselves licensed under 18 NYCRR Parts 487 and 488.

At what point does hourly in-home care cost more than assisted living in New York?

Using CareScout's 2025 New York State medians, in-home non-medical caregiving costs $35 per hour, or about $6,673 per month at 44 hours a week, compared to assisted living's median of $7,110 per month ($225 per day). At roughly 45 to 46 hours per week of paid in-home care, the monthly cost crosses over and exceeds the assisted living median; families needing care beyond that, including any overnight or 24/7 coverage, would generally spend more on home care than on a private one-bedroom assisted living apartment.
