Resources for long term care, rehabilitation, nursing homes, or home care

Our thanks to Lonnie Stewart of Neighbor to Neighbor, an aging-in-place organization in Greenwich Village, for providing the information below. See also Advanced Life Events under the Resources tab.

NY Connects
Free, unbiased information about long term services and supports in New York State for people of all ages or with any type of disability. Long term services and supports include medical and non-medical services a person needs to improve or maintain health and independence. They may be provided in a nursing home, the individual’s home or other community-based settings. You can use this directory to search for programs, providers, and services in your area and to contact to your local NY Connects office for further assistance.

Medicare Nursing Home Comparison

Home Care Association of America
Home Care Association of America is the trade association of the home care industry. While we recommend consulting with a social worker to work with a reputable company, we do encourage calling and asking questions about costs for services and getting an idea of how the company might work with you.
