★ = featured, full profile. Beds = total certified capacity in the 2026 Q2 NYSDOH report. ALR = Assisted Living Residence; EALR = Enhanced ALR; SNALR = Special Needs ALR (dementia); ALP = Medicaid Assisted Living Program.

What is the difference between an Adult Home, Enriched Housing and an ALR?

An Adult Home and an Enriched Housing Program are New York's two base adult care facility licenses; ALR is an added license that requires more services and lets the community call itself assisted living.

Enriched Housing is apartment-style (often with kitchenettes); an Adult Home is more congregate. 36 Long Island communities hold only a base license. They still provide meals, supervision and help with daily activities, and many of the smaller ones are long-running family homes.

Is assisted living the same as memory care on Long Island?

No. Memory care in New York means SNALR certification, and only some ALR communities have it.

Which Long Island assisted living communities accept Medicaid?

13 communities hold Assisted Living Program (ALP) beds, New York's Medicaid-funded assisted living; the ALP column in the table identifies them.

ALP beds are limited and fill quickly. See how Medicaid pays for assisted living in New York.
