Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. In New York, this means an Adult Care Facility license with Assisted Living Residence (ALR) certification under 10 NYCRR Part 1001.

The Smithtown market specifically

St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center (Catholic Health) is based in the town center, and a large, stable homeowner population is aging in place, supported by the LIRR Port Jefferson Branch station.

Smithtown families often compare Huntington or Commack, both a short drive along the Route 25/Jericho Turnpike corridor, for a broader set of verified options.

Visit twice, at different hours

A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised.

Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.

You can check any facility's record free. NYS Health Profiles (profiles.health.ny.gov) publishes license status and inspection history free. Read the full explanation →

Questions families ask

How much does hourly in-home caregiving cost in New York?

CareScout's 2025 Cost of Care Survey reports a New York State median of $35 per hour for what it now calls non-medical caregiver services, a category that merged the formerly separate homemaker services and home health aide categories in 2025 due to price convergence. Based on a 44-hour week, that works out to roughly $6,673 per month or $80,080 per year. Private duty nursing, a higher-acuity service, runs a New York State median of $120 per hour.

What does adult day care cost in New York, and could it help delay a move to assisted living?

CareScout's 2025 Cost of Care Survey puts New York State's Adult Day Health Care median at $144 per day, or about $3,120 per month based on five days a week, $37,440 per year. That's up from $113 per day in the 2024 survey, an increase of roughly 27 percent year over year, the largest percentage jump among CareScout's surveyed New York categories.

Is there a separate published cost for memory care in New York?

No. CareScout's Cost of Care Survey, the primary published cost benchmark used on this site, does not survey or publish a distinct memory care cost category in either its 2024 or 2025 New York State data tables. CareScout only publishes figures for Assisted Living Community, Nursing Home (semi-private and private), Adult Day Health Care, and in-home care categories.

Is there a Long Island-specific senior care cost figure, or only a statewide number?

Only a statewide figure is published. CareScout confirms that its publicly downloadable National and State Data Tables report, the source for the cost figures cited throughout this site, provides state-level and national medians only. CareScout's underlying survey does collect metro-area (MSA-level) data that feeds its separate interactive online cost calculator, but that breakout is not included in the downloadable state tables.
