Questions families ask

What state regulations govern nursing homes on Long Island?

Nursing homes in New York are licensed and regulated by NYSDOH under 10 NYCRR Part 415, Nursing Homes - Minimum Standards, a completely separate rule set from the Adult Care Facility regulations that govern assisted living. Families can search and compare Nassau and Suffolk nursing homes through the NYS Health Profiles Nursing Home Profiles tool. Note that as of mid-2025, CMS's migration to a new federal inspection database (iQIES) temporarily affected how current some posted inspection data is, so it's worth confirming a record's date.

What is an Enhanced Assisted Living Residence (EALR) and when would my parent need one?

An Enhanced Assisted Living Residence (EALR) is an additional certification an Assisted Living Residence can obtain to let residents age in place despite higher physical needs, specifically those who chronically need physical help walking or using stairs, depend on medical equipment requiring frequent professional assistance, or have chronic, unmanaged bowel or bladder incontinence. EALR care is delivered per an Individualized Service Plan and is regulated under the same 10 NYCRR Part 1001 rules as standard ALR and SNALR certifications.

Is there a local New York State office that oversees senior care facilities specifically on Long Island?

Yes. Long Island Adult Care Facilities fall under NYSDOH's Metropolitan Area Regional Office - Long Island (MARO-LI), located at 320 Carleton Avenue, Suite 5000, Central Islip, NY 11722, phone 631-851-3098. This regional office handles licensing oversight and inspections for Nassau and Suffolk County facilities rather than families needing to go through a statewide-only office.
