Questions families ask

My parent just fell and is in the hospital - what's the first call I should make?

For families in Nassau or Suffolk County, the Office for the Aging in your parent's home county is a good first call - Nassau County Office for the Aging at 516-227-8900, or Suffolk County Office for the Aging at 631-853-8200. Both function as the local NY Connects access point, a free service that helps families understand care options, eligibility, and next steps after a hospital event, without any cost or obligation.

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.
